## Narrative
IN AUGUST OF 2018, MY 3 MONTH OLD SANTA FE SPORT CAUGHT FIRE AND WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED.  I WAS DRIVING ON THE NJ TURNPIKE HEADED TO OBX FOR VACATION.  I WAS FOLLOWING MY SISTER DOWN WHEN THEY STOPPED TO LET THEIR DOG OUT AT A REST AREA.  I PULLED INTO THE SPACE NEXT TO THEM AND AS SOON AS I TURNED THE CAR OFF, IT WENT UP IN FLAMES.  BY THE TIME THE FIRE DEPT ARRIVED IT WAS ENGULFED AND I LOST EVERYTHING.
