Please be careful when you close your car door, keep your fingers out of the way!
Even if you remember you had to do something else before closing the door and try to stop it from closing, it will not end well, also if your finger is trapped between the door and the car body don't try to pull your hand to get your finger out of there, open the door then scream.
Yikes! My only car door was experience, I was in middle school and mom just bought a new to us mini van. I was in the front seat grabbing for the seat belt as my brother was closing the sliding back door. Somehow I managed to get fingers, yes multiple, in the door's way as he closed it. I'm just sitting saying nonsense because it hurt so bad and trying to get him to open the door. It was major ouchies.
That is so painful. I hope your hand feels better in a few days. Car door accidents must happen a lot.
One day when I was in 7th grade, my dad let me and a friend out in front of the school. My friend closed her hand in the door and my dad started to drive away. We were both trotting along side the car. She was crying and I was banging on the window yelling "Dad Stop! Dad Stop!" When he did we quickly opened and closed the door, then he went on to work thinking that we just left a purse or book in the car.
Thank you guys for the good wishes! My thumb is doing just fine now! Just a little sore, but I can use it already.
Yesterday a hair tie snapped when I was putting my hair up before bed and guess where it snapped? That hurt like hell!
