Car accident

Got into my first car accident (defined as requiring workshop repair. If not for this assumption, then maybe this is my fourth accident) a week back. It was raining very heavily and I couldn't see shit when my car was entering into a sliproad onto TPE. I stopped the car but it's too late - my car had inched out of the sliproad, inviting a passing lorry to hit me. Damage not too serious but it's enough to shake me. Had been seeing people at the road side or on the road surveying the damage to their car during an accident and this time, it's me! Those who were driving along TPE to SLE direction near Punggol, you might have caught a sight of me.

Repair took about 2 days, involving panel beating and replacment of a metal sheet. Total damage - $520. Ouch.

Luckily it's not anything more serious and luckily i did not hit a car, otherwise, the cost of repair would be much higher.
