what a horrible day
Hey Rani, glad your OK, I got whacked 4 weeks ago in my Breeze. Came over a freeway overpass rise at about 70 and notice the car 300 yds ahead of me is raising his *** and smoking the tires, panic stop! So I brake hard myself, never locked them up and came to a controlled stop about 10 feet behind the car. Now Im looking behind me and a new Evo is braking hard but stops about a foot from my bumper. I can tell hes close because I see nothing but his face in the rear view mirror. Well an old man behind him in a new Lacross wedges his nose into the Evos rear bumper causing his bags to go off and the Evo gets even closer to my car as I cant go anywhere because I want to maintain clearance from the car in front of me. Here comes lady in a toyota and she barrels into the Lacrosse finally hitting me in the accident train, enough to throw my glasses off my face onto my dash. I get out and see if Evo is OK,k he is already on his phone (probably put it down stopping hard) Old man is worse off getting it from both ends and he has handicap plates to boot. Hes getting out from under his airbag and I tell him to hold tight as there is no fluids leaking except coolant. Lady is pissed and already on the phone, giving me the waive off as I ask her if she is OK. Im driving the crappiest car of the bunch and I see NO damage to my car at all, not even a stretch mark on the rear bumper skin! HA! EVo is jacked, exhaust is pointing down, trunk is popped up and his front fenders are creased where the bumper absorbed the hit, Lacross is a complete write off, and ladys Toyota, the only one we couldnt limp the shoulder is stuck in park. Im OK, Old man gets stretchered away, EVO is just shaking his head with a pretty jovial attitude (hey its insured!) and Lady is still on phone, not even associating with us. I walk away, no claim and the insurance from the Evo calls me last week and tells me the investigation points fault at Toyota Lady! I didnt even get a paint job out of the deal, but Im OK, no neck or back pain.
