So I was on the fwy doing about 68mph when a dumb ass decided to cut me off and slam on her brakes, I slammed on mine and started to fishtail across the right lane. Just as I was about to straighten out a big rig slams into my rear and drags me head on to the cement barrier on the right side of the fwy. Fortunately I was ok and only have a minor neck pain to complain about. This shit sucks, I just recently brought my insurance down to liability due to the bad economy :noplease:

you sure weren't attacked by ninjas? one of them left their hook in the first pic.

seriously, sad to see the damage, good to hear you are ok though. good luck on getting a fair amount of cash for the part out for a new car.

Just got a quote from the body shop, $12,000 in repairs... I believe this one is a goner :( I'll be picking up the police report today to fax it over to my insurance company. If anyone here knows how the airbag system works please let me know, none of the airbags went off. I want to know if it was because a "head on" collision didn't occur since I got slammed on the corner.
