Running A Red Light
- Oh!
- Are you OK?
- Where did you learn how to drive? Are you blind?
- What? The signal was a green! You ran the red light!
- No way! That light was a green for sure, this is your fault. Your insurance will have to pay to fix my car.
- What are you talking about? Look at my car. The front bumper is wrecked and there are so many scratches on the left side. In addition to that, the side mirror is broken! It's gonna take a huge amount of money to fix this. Your insurance should cover this. You ran the red light.
- That's bullshit! Oh, no! I have pain in my neck. Could be whiplash. What are you gonna do about this? You should take care of this with your insurance too!
- Well, that whiplash is just because you're too fat and because you have a heavy head!
- How dare you! I'll see you in court!
- Whatever!
