In over 70 years of driving, I had never had an intersection accident. A few minor fender benders, but that’s it.

My wife and I had just driven from our summer home in Northern Wisconsin to Madison for the University of Wisconsin graduation of our grandson. Saturday morning, May 9th, I was driving through a residential section of West Madison. I was driving 25 mph and there was no traffic. Except for one car! I missed the stop sign and was 90% of the way through a residential intersection when a lady plowed into the right rear quarter panel of our 2019 Tesla Model 3 Long Range, as you can see in the photo below.
