Luckily, I had been wearing my seatbelt
The snowstorm in our city last week wasn’t a large one, but it caused many accidents. The snow started to come down in the late afternoon. I saw it through the window of the office building where I work as a secretary. It had been snowing for an hour when I started to drive home.
The cars had been driving slowly because of the dangerous roads. It was slippery snow that froze when it hit the roads. Earlier, the snow had been melting, but by the evening it was staying on the roads. Police cars had been checking the traffic regularly.
I’d been driving for twenty minutes when the accident happened. My heater hadn’t been working, and the snow had been freezing on my window, so I couldn’t see well. I’d been stopping to clean my window every few minutes. I’d just started the car again when my tires started to slip. The car slipped onto the side of the road. When it hit the hill, it turned over and stopped.
I left the car and looked to see if I’m hurt but I wasn’t. I’d been driving quite slowly, and luckily I’d been wearing my seatbelt. It was very quiet, with just the sounds of music and falling snow; I’d been playing the radio. Soon the police came to help me, and I was able to reach home in another hour.
