RIP: My 1994 J30

[AlphaKilo470]

Somewhere around 11:30am this morning, I was driving home from the job I just got fired from when I was caught up in a rant on my phone and ran a stop sign and broad-sided a 2007 Lexus IS250. The Lexus needs work on the passenger side doors and was driven away. My J30 which has 216k miles on it and has been in one wreck by the previous owner is pretty much totaled. It still starts, drives and handles just fine but between frame damage, radiator damage and the problems it had before the wreck, it's time to call it a day for this car. Rest in peace J30.

BTW, nobody got hurt. The sole injury as a result of this wreck is the cut next to my ear; the lady in the Lexus looked untouched. I'm also lucky in that she was really nice and we just talked about various things while waiting on the cop.

You are 4 times more likely to be in a wreck while talking on the cell phone. That's the same as driving drunk btw.

Glad no one was hurt.
