Yeah, head to the hospital, the guy behind you will probably end up paying for the visit! Neurological symptoms are never something to joke around with.

man that sucks....costly too. I had similar front end damage to my s-10

During my morning commute, hardly anyone pays attention to the speed limit signs. I usually keep it within about 5mph of the speed limit, people tailgate me all the time. That's their problem, not mine. I could see if I was doing under the speed limit and holding up traffic, but I'm not.

dont drive like an idiot.

your supposed to keep a car length for every 10mph your doing, from the car in front of you.

so your going 70, you need 7 car lengths.

Whoa, I can see your crumple zones, sexy...

 

[Pliablemoose]

Sorry about your car.

I had someone tailgate me the other day, slowed down and he kept tailgating, I pulled over on the shoulder & let the asshole pass me... It's just not worth it to get hit or have someone play the road rage shit...

well i just heard back from the insurance company... their first appraisal is that its totaled.. stating "substantial front end and engine damage"

Well.....what's the car worth? Looks like you can make a huge down payment on another car.

ive seen it. i had a fart car actually tap my bumper when i drove an intrepid and honk to get me to go faster, so i slowed down and gave him a way to get around me... i saw him 2 miles up the road up on the wall backwards. apparently he clipped someones front end and spun himself around, hitting the wall. i stopped and let the cops know about him tagging my bumper, the red spot on my white car was enough to get him a hit and run ticket. i was happy. he was not. now that im in a big truck, no one really tries to get me to go faster. im already doing 6 or 7 over the limit as it is, so they can bite it.

that sucks

but ive gotta shake my head at the 'custom paint' sticker on the front windshield. did you get a discount on the paint job for that?

 

[iamwiz82]

So your painted calipers did not aid in slowing you down?
