The good, the bad, and the ugly.

The good - only about 4 more weeks to go! Almost there....

The bad - the other day after work, some guy ran a red light and pulled out right in front of my paramedic, causing him to rear-end the guy.

The ugly - my paramedic wasn't driving our car; he was driving our friends' car. They let us borrow it for the internship to save on gas.

More good - they're still our friends, lol. Both my paramedic and our friends have full-coverage insurance so at least the car will get fixed. And, no one was hurt.

More ugly - the driver who ran the red light tried to run. my paramedic chased him down and he finally stopped. When my paramedic got out of the car, in his uniform which looks a lot like a cop's uniform, the guy was suddenly very scared and very cooperative. The driver didn't have a driver's license on him, and the insurance information in his van was old. At least it was a van for a company, so the company and the employer can be traced.

More good - my paramedic talked to a cop right after it happened, and the cop said that he would give my paramedic a hit and run report against the driver if he needs it.

No worries, Kip is fine - he doesn't even own a wifebeater. Phew! Disaster averted!
