Unhappy Got run off highway into a ditch at 4am (PICS)

So last night I'm on my way home from Woodstock, Ontario. I left at 12:40am and it's about a 4.5 hour drive. Around 4am I'm passing through 1000 Islands...I get along side this car to pass and without lookin he comes out and runs me off the highway doing 150 km/h (over 90 MPH). My car winds up speeding through a ditch in the tall grass and ****. I stomp on the gas and try to get the car back up the hill and onto the road but as I do that I take out a road side marker (pole with a yellow marker on it) and take out my bumper, lower splash guard and rear view mirror (mirror part only).

Needless to say one of the most hair raising experiences ever. I can't believe I didn't hit the trees to the left of me. I dont think I actually lost any momentum but the assclown that hit me was long gone by the time I got out and I slowed down after to feel out the car. Everything else with the car is fine thankfully.

HEre are some pics I took today because my camera wasn't workin last night.

ekk that sucks. I was in acouple of those, atleast ur okay. Insurance wont cover something like that without a huge premium rise because he would be at fault due to the other car being unidentified.

Did you get a police report? That will cover it under comprehensive more than likely, just lie about the speed

You might want to look at your options of that though from the damage, there is def susp damage and the core support is more than likely hurt. Gonna be expensive out of your pocket.

The damage to the car is completely cosmetic. From what I can see it needs:

Front bumper w/lower splashguard
Passenger front fender fixed or replaced
New Mirror (glass only)

Everything else seems fine other than some scratches that can be buffed out I'm sure.

yeah...there's a dent on my door beneath the mirror...just found that one last night...lol. I think the fender and door can be rolled out though. The bumper I hope to find cheap and I have someone that can paint it up quick for me.

I just filed a police report in case I have to use my insurance.
