RIP Rally Yellow Balt

Well I was on my way to work today and this Honda Civic was going the opposite dirrection and made a left hand turn right infront of me. Needless to say I think my car is totaled. My wheel is no longer a circle its bent in about 3 or four inches, both headlights popped out..........well one popped the other was smashed in, a peice of my bumper landed 10 feet behind my car radiator is bent and leaking, also leaking what appears to be power steering fluid, both fenders are bent (one a lot worse than the other), driver side door might need to be replaced, and ofcourse the bumper and hood are screwed.

This is another reason why I hate Honda

damn, that sucks. the honda owner had a lot of nerve being upset since he's the reason the accident happened in the first place. hopefully they will total it out that way you can get a new car.

The wrecker doesn't know crap- there's no axle to break. My guess is it's recoverable and the insurance will tell you that. Then I'd find a Jeep or old pu with a rail road tie for a front bumper and track down the Honda driver and wack his car - once it's fixed........
