Idiot, how do you rear end someone??? Thats just dumb. Dont follow so close, and watch what is happening in front of you.

strut pulled out? huh? That sounds bad.

blacksr - don't judge so much. Are you 100% sure he is an idiot? don't throw the word around if it isn't necessary.

Ultimate douche commentary...I'm sure you've done by accident in the past, and not necessarily because you were an IDIOT.

OP, sorry to hear that. It's a terrible feeling.

Well you know what?

At least you are ok.

I think time will heal everything and if you REALLY want another 240.

You will get one.

It hurts me even to see the damage on your car. I literally cried on my first accident because i felt as if my car would not be in pain if it was not for me being stupid and trying to look cool in front of my friends. And it all happened at 2 miles per hour. Yep......

No worries dude! Everything is going to work out.

One Love,

Ghasty

OP, sorry to hear that. It's a terrible feeling.
Look, I have been rear ended twice, once the woman hit me was drunk, and pushed me into another car. The second time the guy was going too fast, and said that he didnt even see my bright red civic. Never rear ended anyone, and if I did, I would call myself an idiot. If you cant pay attention to what is happening in front of you then you are an idiot for not avoiding the situation. I have incidentally never gotten into an accident that was my fault, and am very aware of my surroundings, and very comfortable behind the wheel.

O yea, and the 1980 granada wasnt a small car either, so...not hard to see.

So, to those who hate me for saying the truth...Dont care...thats my opinion, take it or leave it. Seeyabye. Pay more attention when your driving. Dont get mad because you people cant drive. Not saying that I am happy that this guy totaled his car, and good luck with the rebuild, maybe you'll be more careful next time...

maybe you were an idiot for not avoiding those accidents you were in.Was it 100% necessary for you to be driving at that time?Did you see the cars coming behind you? Maybe you could have movied out of the way.Maybe you could have bought a plain colored car. People don't flock to normal color cars.

EDIT : I am joking... just in case you freak out.

I was sitting at lights both times, The first time, me and my ex were on the way home from picking up her daughter, and o yea, let me pay attention to the drunken idiot that didnt even slow down. The second time I was on my way home from class (college) and was sitting at a light, in the middle of a sunny summer day. Wasnt preventable on my part and if the IDIOT is gonna rear end me, both times, I made out on the deal, both cars were totaled and the insurance company gave me full compensation for both cars.

And as far as the colors are concerned, the first car was black. So hows that for plain.

LOL @ BH (I can't believe I'm saying that. oh well...)

Looks like a T-bone accident to me. She probably pulled out to strong at a stop sign or something. It didn't fold up the hood too much, so I'm thinking she hit on accelleration off the line.

Sucks, but your rates will probably go up even tho it wasn't your fault.
