I got t-boned and lost

On my way home from work tonight I was waiting in the turnlane at canyon rd and 176th. the light turned green and i went to make my left hand turn and whaddya know BOOOOOOOOOOMMM I get hit by someone running the redlight. im guessing they were going near 55 because what i think was happening is they were trying to make it through the yellow light and they were clearly too late. after they hit me, i spun around, hit the car next to me, which caused me to spin around again and go sliding backwards into the huge steel lightpole that was standing there *minding his own business, might i add* my passengerside airbags went off and all that good crap. i get the car into the ampm parking lot and the person who hit me decides to drive off.... GREAT!!!! cops come and 3 witness tell him what happened and they go on their way. officer gives me the case # and my father in law shows up and follows me home... everyone who has seen the car has said we are lucky alicia wasnt in there because she would have more then likely died. About 3 hours go by after Im home and the police officer calls my phone. Turns out it was like an 80 yr lady and when she came too she realized something was wrong with her car and called and turned herself in... my **** is fucked up now and just to add to my luck, i bet they dont want to total it.
click the link for more pics. if u need a password to view the album, its is crash

another update... after ive looked the car over better i came across the impact buckled the roof of the car. my sunroof doesnt sit in its spot anymore because of it. my dad thinks that alone will total it.

All and all I felt like a nascar wreck, haha... i had 3 impacts... first car hitting me, me hitting another car *whos car didnt get hurt at all and it was like a late 80s toyota corolla. and third impact was me rolling backwards into that light pole....
.

anyone want to try and guess how much in damage is done and if i find i out, ill post on here.

it's boils down to the frame, drive train condition and accute cost to repair what else broke. It that order. If the frame is even slightly tweaked forget it.

i updated the link, sorry. If they total it, I think Im just going to get a trailblazer... depending on how much money they were to give me would depend on which model I would get. If they would give me some where around 10gs I would go put a dp on a trailblazer ss ., but im not that lucky.

belive it or not, that's about 10k worth of damage. It's still fixable but it has to exceed over a certain amount of value before they will.
