My 80-something grandpa got in a car accident

Bad news, he wrecked his car last night. He was coming into town to get a hamburger at about 8:30ish and somehow started to run off the road to the right at the stop sign on the north end of town. He over-corrected after hitting a couple road reflector signs and then ended up going into the ditch on the left side. The dispatcher recognized the name and called my aunt, so my uncle went right up to be with him. He was a little confused or disoriented and the paramedics wondered if he should be brought in, but my uncle assured him that it was not unusual for him to be a little disoriented. So my uncle took him for a hamburger and then back home where he stayed the night with him as a precaution. He seems to be ok. Just a bump on the head, but his car has seen better days. To make this a discussion. Have you ever been in a car accident before? Was it your fault? Were you badly injured?
