...and she was not using her car 
She took her car to fix some stuff and borrowed her aunt's. The guy BARELY uses the car, it is 6 years old and has a little more than 10k KM of use. Anyway...
She was going to work and take Zoe to school...a few minutes after she left home she called me on my cell phone and I felt something really weird. I picked up the phone and she was really nervous saying she crashed the car. I picked up Alice, ran like a mad man to the crash place and it was bad. My wife was driving her aunt's FIAT and the other woman, a military woman ehehe was driving a chevrolet. There was no STOP sign on the street my wife was on (and she was not used to use this path), so she didn't stop and the other car hit her on the side. Her car spun and hit the a wall pretty bad. Fortunately, both my wife and Zoe are fine, just very nervous.
Now, about the cars...the other car just had a bad radioator and a air conditioner leakage AND she had insurance. The car my wife was on however, had no insurance, and SO FAR, I know we need to buy a new door, a new bumper (that thing on the back of the car..it is bumper, right?), the rear axis is badly damaged, the whole rear suspension gotta be changed and A LOT of fixing and painting of the car body.
Her aunt was not even close to nice with her (didnt even ask how she was, if she was hurt), she is feeling real bad, crying over stairs lying at the bad, blaming herself (I am feeding Alice atm, and she asked to be alone for some moments), I am kinda sad with the whole situation and we'll be REALLY fucked when our mechanic give a quote for this thing. I think it'll be around $3k, which is almost two months of work for both me and her.
At least everyone is healty (although not mentally..). But it was a big scare.
