Did she cause the accident?

I was going to ask this question. Yeah, it just seems too convenient that he gets in an accident (that she wouldn't have been above causing) and then she brings him to her home where all the meds and medical supplies are there waiting for him. She could have planned waaay in advance. Since she's bat sh** crazy, she could have just been going to the lodge waiting for him to return not really knowing when he would return. Misery hadn't died in the last book she read, so she knew that he'd return at least once. Also, he hadn't quit writing altogether, so even if it was a different book he was superstitious (her words) enough to return. She thought she knew him better than he knew himself. That's part of why she's so scary to him she studied him enough that he began to believe that she knew him better than he knew himself, too. That's the kind of thing that can make a person lose their general sense of safety.

I think it's a better story if, much like real life, all the pieces ARENT connected. She was spying on him and following him, but she couldn't have known that he was going to get into a wreck. And I can't believe she would be able to plan and execute such a plan, knowing exactly where he tired would be on the road and whatnot.

Unless she messed with his breaks, I don't see how she caused the accident. And if she loves him and Misery so much why would she put him in danger like that?
Here's my question though. Paul comes up there every time he writes a book, she says she's his #1 fan. She was following him this time, so it's pretty likely she had followed him in the past. Maybe even hung out at the Hotel in hopes of running into him.
Paul's not a dumb ass. How is it possible he never saw Anne before especially in that small town?

Paul's drinking while driving the wrong vehicle for the weather conditions as well as his speed caused the accident in the novel. It was clear from their directions that Annie was in the oncoming traffic. If she were following him, wouldn't she be behind him rather than coming from the opposite direction?
A vintage Mustang's a poor choice for a mountain ice storm drive. For that you need a Subaru Legacy Wagon or an Outback as they're now called. It was clearly driver error in the book Stephen King finds enough horror in the real world. Annie was terrifying enough as she was without causing the accident.

Damn.
Some are just really stupid.
I want to know just how possible it would be to cause an accident at that precise time and in that precise spot just for him.
Like how in the **** would she know that his car was going to be there on that exact day and time?
Plus she is a really huge fan.
Why would she cause serious injury and possible death to her fave. author? -

Yeah I think she planned it cuz she said that she was wondering why he would driving when a snow storm was coming. Well why was she out there too watching him knowing a snow storm was coming and not warn him????
