Wow. It's amazing the driver was barely injuered. I agree that danger is often closer than it seems. Good one, espeically for it being so personal.
Good contest entry as well

I do like the six words; there's a lot of irony therein. I particularly like the personification of the car. There's also a happy message in that the driver was barely injured. It's odd that one has to write such long author's notes to explain only six words! Excellent work.

Hi Alvin, Thank you so much for the wonderful review. I am honored ro receive it. I thought of a lot of different ways to write this, but picked this description as my favorite. I thought it covered all the bases.
My author's notes even surprised me, but I knew readers would be asking questions and would want to know more. It is funny that six words can lead you to so many more.
Thanks again,
Helvi :o)

Your six word story is impactful, but the story told in the author's notes holds a very important message and lesson for any driver. Best of luck in this contest! :)

Your message was clear through your six words.
This picture and your story could help others to slow
down and check their car before entering.
May God bless ever word you write. CS/Pat

That was interesting, its funny both my cousin, and Stephen King (the latter not to me personally) said that they thought almost half of the one car accidents that happen are because there is a bug in the car, your story backs that up. I'm glad you lived through it, sounds horrific, also that you are better now.

thank you for this warning, it is a good report about the accident and indeed you have been lucky to escaped the way you did.. always check your car, the little critters that crawl in or fly in while you are not looking, are most distracting, therefor dangerous, well written, thank you for sharing, Blue
