Ouch, wow.

It's no fun being side-swiped on the freeway.

Happened to me in my SRT. I didn't hit anything afterwards, thankfully, but the only part I remember of the ordeal (besides the initial swipe) was being 180 degrees staring at a silver Mercedes SLK and its driver wearing silver Aviators, then it was a blur again.

So weird how that happens.

Take it to a reputable shop that will fight with the insurance for all new OEM parts. Glad you're ok.

I DID! I thought... AH CRAP....not THE "Smurf". I was about to call him to see what happened before the thread opened. I vote to rename thread.

Either way, sorry to hear about the accident. Good luck with insurance. Hopefully you will make out good in the end.

Oh that really sucks, glad everyone is ok though. I've lost control once, so fast but scary.

Did the 16yr old girl cry...as mean as it sounds that would make me feel better.

16 year old darting over 3 lanes? with only her brother? with the car being insured under her mom? Does the brother have a license? Sounds like they took the car out for a joy ride or something, but I don't know the full details, just assuming. And you know what happens when you assume.

glad to hear you're safe though.

This is what i am always afraid of when i am driving. I dont question my awareness to my surroundings but i cant say the same for other drivers. Especially when i take a one-lane canyon road to work and back.

Glad you are ok and hopefully your insurrance will take care of you

Oh man, that sucks. That's quit a bit of damage on both sides not including your under body damage, like some of the guys said find a good reputable place and don't let their insurance give you the run around...... Looks as if they will probably have to repaint the whole Smurfmobile.......

That's no good. I'm glad you're alright. I hope you got a police report and everything. Don't take it easy on her just because she's a little girl. Don't want her to make up some BS and try to screw you over.
