Heh, well, I'm glad you're ok. The girl was ok?
Never had a crash in any car myself so far, (touch wood), but had

This happened years ago. But yeah, nobody was seriously hurt - although
there were several insurance claims to the contrary...

Only a minute or 2. Dallas is pretty easy to spot from an areal map, and
I know the layout of the roads so I pretty much just zoomed in right on it.
