Bad car accident on a hot day and no A/C

Nick August 18, 2019

Not too long ago, my husband and I got into a pretty severe car accident.

Fortunately nobody was killed, but my husband broke his foot.

He wasn’t able to get out of the car, so I called 911 to get an ambulance out there in a hurry. Since the car was busted up pretty bad, the climate control system was no longer working. It was also a very hot day so that didn’t help things out much. I thought my husband was in pain, but he kept complaining that it was too hot in the car. The windows were broken, but there wasn’t much of a breeze coming through. It must have been 90 degrees around that time. I was hot too but I was more worried if he was alright. I asked him about any broken bones and he said he thought his foot was broken because he couldn’t move it or really even feel it. Finally when the ambulance got there, the EMTs were able to get him out of the car. They got him into the ambulance and he kept asking if they could crank up the air conditioning. They did the best that they could and reassured him that the A/C at the hospital was definitely really good. I think he felt a lot better when they finally got to the hospital. He thought the temperature control settings were just right, but I thought the place was absolutely freezing. I was just glad that we were okay though. The accident wasn’t our fault, so our insurance would be getting us a new car since ours was basically totalled.
