(#5832) Yesterday's two different dimensional experiences

      I was driving to work and then I was spinning like a on a ride at the state fair. What is so vivid to me is that I recall the exact moment that the disconnect from me just driving to work and the spinning like a top happened. It was at minimum surreal. I asked myself how can I be spinning like this when a split second ago I was driving to work. It then came into my consciousness that I had been hit by another vehicle. I didn't have much time to process the act as I was trying to think what I should be doing to help myself stop spinning. It was at the next moment that as I was going around the offending vehicle was driving directly into my drivers door.
     As I was looking to my left I could see the other driver and his companion staring at me stone faced. Both men were in their 30's and looked to be white construction type workers from what I gathered in that split second from their clothing. Then the sight shifted as I continued to spin and they kept going forward on their way. I on the other hand kept spinning and after about one and a half turns I knew I had to do something to stop my trajectory. I was on an overpass rising up toward the apex. I hit the brakes and turned into the spin. As I slowed down and eventually came to rest backed up against the guardrail I looked to see the other vehicle cresting over the top of the overpass and then disappear.
     I was fortunate in that I was only traveling at about 30 miles an hour when the collision happened and also because there was little to no traffic at that time on a Sunday morning. However the chance of witnesses was also slim and although two stopped to ask if I was okay, both declined to wait to give a statement for the police who I called a few minutes after I composed myself. I did report a hit and run the best I could and we will see if anything comes of it. All I know is that the whole experience has unsettled me and although I couldn't make it to work yesterday I am sitting here typing this getting ready to work today instead. Yesterday could have been much worse and I truly know that.
