To be honest, it put me in a good fog at first and I was dazed for a while, My left hand got a little numb and weak, whiplash was intense as in almost caused me to lose consciousness, I know a little from my medical training and checked my pupils... great they were acting a little odd and I'm noticing this morning typing with my left hand is a little shaky, and once or twice I had a mis-step with my left leg, not like stumble just like didn't mean to put my foot there but was still walking fine.
Wife begged me to go get checked but the nearest hospitle is half an hour away, it was late, I was feeling a lot better overall than I was right after, if symptoms don't clear up with my hand and if I have a lot more instances of not being able to think of things I ought to I'll go get checked out as it might be more than just a good solid concussion.
What really bothers me, is why did it happen... I recall going over a crest of a hill in the road, listening to the radio then a moment later i'm raising my head to see break lights ahead from a woman stopped dead in the road signal on waiting to make a left hand turn. Stomp on the breaks... **** they locked up, turning hard right trying to take the shoulder and miss her....almost on impact I felt how hard my neck got jerked. *sigh* Soon as I "came too" I thought to myself "God, please help me..." Not like OMG I"M HURT... but just that *sigh* help me get through this sort of thing, 2 months ago I wrecked and totaled a nice old Buick rear ending a VW... different cause than this one but DAMN IT! 2 cars in 2 months... ****.
Worst part was finding out there were 2 kids in the back of her car. When the officer asked if I had any questions I asked if anyone else was in the car and he said 2 kids in the back and my instant response was "****!" he then told me they were fine but still... damn it.
