If there's anything that we've all learned, it's that bad things happen to good people, and good things happen to bad people. It's unavoidable, so the important thing is to learn how to deal with in a positive fashion.
We can sit and cry about spilled milk, or we can call the cat to clean it up. If the cat doesn't come, call the dog, and if the dog doesn't come, lick it up yourself. Staying positive and making light of a crappy situation is the mark of a great person.
Enough Is Enough
At some point enough is enough and you have to put the writing on the wall. Getting rear-ended once is an inconvenience, but getting rear-ended 14 different times calls for a plea to the public. It's cheaper to buy a customized license plate than to get an entirely new back end so this is a smart tactic.
