Been to too many calls where kids were injured or dead.

Time to find another car for him to help wash. Glad everyone's ok.

I still think her truck was totalled.  the rv tow lugs were the deciding factor...she drove it away


she punched a hole through the door and also through the extended cab behind it






Be careful out there folks.....

how the hell do you get hit in the side and the other party not get the citation? Tell me you weren't cited. Is it a no fault state? Are the insurance companies going to fight it out?

I'm ready to prove there is no way in hell that she stopped, and that there was no obstruction in her way had she (GASP) stopped where she said she was.  I have so many pictures from so many sources.  I wasn't cited......I was just going home from work two blocks away ::)

EDIT:  Police determined at the scene she was 100 percent at fault, although she wasn't cited.  I guess they figured she was in enough trouble already. I never asked nor pressed the issue. The police deemed the truck totalled.

Glad all was well, but this is the kind of thing that makes me want to show people that I am not so nice in person. Online I can be so nice...this happens to me in person and all of the sudden we have earthquakes in Ohio

almost seems like those tow hooks saved her car, whoever gets that and does the salvage paperwork is lucky. Your car, not so much

I was wondering how a plastic bumper car could get that good a grip on the door pillar.
