I was driving home from work on Thursday. I was driving about 45-50 in a 45 zone. I was coming up to an intersection in which I had a green light. As I proceeded to go straight, an elderly woman going the oppsite direction decided to make a left infront of me. I hit the brakes & swerved, but I knew that I was going to hit her. The next thing I remember I am getting out of the car on the side of the road. It seems that our front ends collided & we both spun to the side of the road. I collided with a 3rd car & she hit a telephone pole. I left an 8 inch skid mark. That is all the time I had to react. I wasnt wearing a seatbelt. My head cracked the windsheild, chest hit the steering wheel bending the wheel & the steering collumn. The cars is definitly totaled. I went to the hospital where I was released as was the elderly woman. Her insurance is picking up the tab. That about sums it up. Now I have to get another daily driver. I hope the insurance gives me a decent amount for it. Im actually very upset. My car wasnt worth more than 1500 on a good day... BUT IT RAN GREAT!! I had replaced most of the engine parts when I first bought it two years ago with a blown head gasket. There is no way I will be able to get as good of a car with only $1500.
Its hard to tell from the pic.. But the drivers front wheel is pushed back into the fender.
