I was going on vacation to maine with a few friends in june and we were about 50 miles from home on 495 north and we came up over a hill and the girl in front of me stopped short over a hill and i rear ended her. thankfully the airbags didnt go off and the car was still drivable. we still had another 200 miles to go till we got there. and all the way back home. if i hit her any harder i would had blown the radiator. the cooling fans were less than an inch from the exhaust manifold. it made it to maine and back but thats after we made a stop to get bunji cords to hold the hood in place just to be on the safe side.

the insurance quoted me $6,220.77

it needed a new hood. new passenger fender. bumper. radiator, AC condenser. radiator support. headlights and time to repair the divers fender.

i just got it back 2 days ago. i considered sleeping in it when i got it back.
i had an impala for the past month and hated it.

I'm never driving again.

were were on a highway. it was around 5:00PM. it was actually funny. she got out of the car all ready to just get down to business. no nothing. it was almost like she was sitting there in her car with her pad and paper and information just waiting for the moment for someone to hit her.

dude in a jacked up pickup with mudslingers come on from an entrance ramp at 85 and clips me...

i go to the left... hit another car in the far left lane while spinning... after that i spun back across the highway at the concrete wall...

i was on a bridge... i hit the wall at 65 with my drivers side...

the truck never stopped... i have no collision.. which means its comin outta my pocket...

new bumpers.. fender.. complete suspension.. lights... front and back...door... wheels.. and total new rocker panel... new mirror... windows... and the trunk is pretty much unsalvagable

here you go... some of you may have seen these in my "parting out" threads, but for everyone else, here are some pics of my 2003 EX sedan... i let my little sis's babysitter borrow it to run some errands, and she made it about 1/4 of a mile from the driveway before jumping a ditch and taking out a barbed wire fence and 5 pine trees... oh, and just to make sure you guys cry as much as i did, i threw in a couple pics of my 'Vic showing what it looked like before she got ahold of it... brand new Infiniti Super Black paint, CF hood, new Platinum Llumar ALL THE WAY around, cleared headlights, Neuspeed Race springs, 18" Konig Unknowns and BFGoodrich g-Forces... rims were stolen out of my driveway, so the accident pics show me rolling on 14" black nasties... but you get the idea...


if that doesn't bring a tear to your eye, this will: absolutely NO insurance at all... 140 mph in a 50 mph zone while driving with a suspended license = 5 tickets and 2 court dates... the dog tags around my neck kept me out of jail, but needless to say the local cops are ALWAYS on the lookout for my car... since i wasn't driving it, i let the insurance policy expire... i had it towed out of the woods she crashed into, and it's just sitting in my back yard at the moment... if you're interested in some parts, click my user name, search for posts by me (i only have a couple), and hit me up in one of the "conversion" threads...

lesson learned: ALWAYS HAVE FULL COVERAGE! (and never let a stupid girl drive your car lol)

here's just a before and after... the rest of the accident scene pics are at http://http://s200.photobucket.com/albums/aa19/stephencushman/

check them out and pay your final respects lol
