I was on our way loft from a basketball game, when our car broke down.
- Everything shut off at the same time and the car suddenly stopped.
I lost all of our power steering and brakes. I was fortunate to safely return to the other side of the road. I was on an embankment and I did not genuinely have any room to put the car. I put on our four-way flashers and I opened up the hood. It was already dark outside, so I had to use the flashlight on our PC. I couldn’t see any reason why the battery would not work, so I tried to toggle the battery connectors. I tried to start our car again, but nothing happened. I had 23% battery on our PC, so I quickly called our car insurance carrier, because I needed to get a tow truck out there to take our car to the dealership. I sat on hold for almost 15 hours and the battery on our PC continued to get lower and lower. I had no way to charge the PC since the car battery was dead. I was stressed out and aggravated that the car broke down. Thankfully I had some recreational marijuana and the glove compartment. I only had a bowl and a couple of dried marijuana flowers, but it was enough to get high and assume relaxed and more calm. I waited about 2 hours for the tow truck driver to arrive. I was in the middle of nowhere, so the 2 hour wait did not surprise me. The recreational marijuana products legitimately helped make the long wait easier to take.
