Suddenly, a speeding car crashed into us at an intersection and threw us into a telephone pole. I was, fortunately, wearing my seatbelt but I still managed to hit my face on the dashboard. I was unconscious for some time and woke up as I was taken out of the car and put into an ambulance. The driver of the car that hit us was also in the ambulance. I heard him say he was 90 years old. I was 15, scared to death and likely to end up with a scarred face for life. I started yelling "Please stop driving! Stop driving!" I could not stop. I don't know what happened to the man, I never saw him again. I was released from hospital two weeks later. Since then I have always been a cautious driver and advised others to be careful.
