Hi,
It has been 6 months from my new car purchase. Still i am not driving due a minor accident happen while my second day of driving with my new car.
Six month before me and my family decided for a new car and after all research, decided to buy Grand i10. Almost decided and preparing the finance the Elite i20 released and that changed my mind and decide to buy it.
YES. i am one of the lucky customer who got the first batch of the Elite i20 within two week. Things are went well and delivered the car to home with help of Sales person as i was learning the driving.
After a week when i finished learning (Learned from a Santro and i have license which i got 3years ago with a maruthi 800 learning) decided to take the new car out. I took it in the early morning(6 to 7 am). Drove around 15 kms with 1st and 2nd gear. Safetly reached home and found two scratches. Felt very bad.
The next day again i took the car. Drove around 30kms and almost reached home. Near to my home there is a four road junction and my home is in little downside. So the road is little steep. In both corner of the steep road, people are illegally parked vehicles so the road become narrow and am little tensed. In the corner of steep road from my right side there is auto standing and in the left a grand i10 standing. Suddenly my car is started rolling fast towards the auto, i lost total control don't know what happen. My car hit the auto and pushed towards the Grand i10 and within seconds this all happened and somehow my car stopped. Unfortunately inside the auto the driver was there. He got very little scratches and started a drama.
I am total panic. After lot of conversation i have settled the auto guy(It is a big story which i want to forget) also there is damage for i10. I gave a big money for his repair as well. The mistakes is from all of three but the situation is against me and i lost a big money.
From that day, the fear is sitting on my head and i am not able to come out. I went to driving classes again with old i20 still the fear of crossing the accident spot is not going. I have to cross the accident spot to go out. So that is stopping me to take the car out.
Guys, Anybody having similar experiences. How your overcome this. Any Suggestion. Please help me.
NOTE: PLEASE DON'T ASK DETAILS OR DISCUSS MORE ON THE ACCIDENT AS I WANT TO FORGET IT.
Thanks,
