Jane: Hi Carol. Did you get a new car?
Carol: Hi Jane. No, this is a rental car. I was in an auto accident yesterday.
Jane: Are you ok?
Carol: Yeah. My back hurts a little, but luckily I wasn’t seriously injured.
Jane: Did you go to the hospital?
Carol: Yeah. I went there this morning. The doctor took some x-rays. Nothing is serious. I just have some bruises.
Jane: I’m glad you are ok. Was there another car involved?
Carol: Yeah, the other driver rear-ended me at a red light.
Jane: Wow! Is he or she ok?
Carol: Yeah. He seemed ok at the scene.
Jane: This could’ve been a serious accident.
Carol: I know. We were both lucky.
Jane: Where is your car? Is it getting fixed?
Carol: No. It’s too damaged to be repaired. It’s at the junkyard now.
Jane: That’s terrible. Is your insurance going to pay for a new car?
Carol: Well, it was the other driver’s fault, so his insurance is going to take care of it.
Jane: That’s good. Are you going to buy the same type of car?
Carol: I think so. I loved that car. It protected me in this accident.
