No idea what happened. Woke with EMT trying to figure out how to get me out. Likely I fell asleep at the wheel, I hadn’t been sleeping well at that time. Broke my back again leading to my 3rd and 4th surgeries. Your first statement made me think; I had my dog in the back seat. He was shook up but ok, someone took him to the veterinary hospital. But for months after that he wouldn’t get in the car with me. His favorite thing to do was go out to a nearby public area where I could let him off the leash. It took him at least a couple months before that desire outweighed memory of the crash.
