One older couple - who had narrowly escaped with their lives - appeared at the scene.Shannon said: “I couldn’t be more grateful to them, I’ll be grateful forever.“But even in their panic and shock I was still their priority - a complete stranger.”The aftermath of the terrifying accident last year, on the Ballyblack Road East near Bangor,Shannon said: “I was treated for minor injuries and remained in the Ulster Hospital for three days for pain management and neurological observation.
Miraculously she had suffered “no obvious major injuries” but said “the crash has ruined my quality of life. “I have PTSD, I have anxiety. I have major back problems that I’m still having scans for so they can see the full extent of the damage.Shannon said she wanted to share the shocking images of her totalled Ford Focus ST as a stark reminder that “everything can change in a split second.”
She said: “It happened on a mostly dry day at about 1pm, I was not speeding and I was paying attention.“I was driving along at approximately 56mph, the traffic was fine.The car appears to have breached the junction and clipped the rear of the Focus, sending it into a spin.“I hit a farmer’s wall, spun again, hit the wall again and then flipped onto my roof and slid a considerable distance down the road.
She said she has “reluctantly” begun driving again out of necessity but that she harbours “major concerns” about the vulnerability of all drivers on the roads.Topics
