Rep Power: 220 Totaled My Civic =[ UPDATED WITH PICS [56k maybe]
So the other day i was leaving the gas station looking towards the street trying to make a left. the street that i had to cut across from and turn left onto was all backed up. so this truck waved me through so i can go through and take a left. well....i trusted him and before you know it, and kid goes into the left turn lane smashing into me. which forces my car into the left turn lane facing the intersection of 111th and 59. everyone was fine. the kid's airbags went off but mine didnt. I'm not really sure whose fault it is. i think its both our fault because he cut though many turn lanes to get to the one i was crossing over. and he prolly wasnt paying attention cuz i was stopped to see if any cars were comming but its still my fault cuz he had the right away. if he was watching it prolly could've gotten avoided.but still my fault for trusting a truck and blocking my view for oncomming cars and having my nose stick out into the other turn lane. right now it sits at the tow yard waiting for the insurance company and body shop to figure wat to do. Good thing is that he didnt touch my rims =D.
Update: According to the tow owner, the car runs fine since he had to drive it into the back lot. i turned the car on and it sounded fine. just gotta see what the bodyshop says. prolly this afternoon or tomorrow.
Doubled checked the rims and they are fine
There's my mom, lol my support
Left Fender
Right Fender [edge of the hood got bent prolly from opening the hood, my bad =\ ]

Rep Power: 0 Glad to hear your ok. Yeah man getting people to wave you on is not a good thing. That is the same thing that happened to me. Usually i try to be careful as to who to wave in and were. cause most people are just being nice but not looking out for your safety. Hope everything works out with the insurance..

Rep Power: 314 glad youre alright.
your car is not totalled.... basically to be totalled, the engine/transmission need to be involved. Chassis/frame damage can be bent back.

Rep Power: 294 Glad to hear you and the kids are ok. That's wierd about your airbag not going off. When they fix your car you should have them double-check your airbag. The damage dosn't look too bad.

And insurance is covering it. Its sitting at the bodyshop right now, dunno when they're gonna start. prolly after the kids insurance company takes a look at it.
