Don't text while driving...

After work as I came to a stop at a traffic light, i hear a screech and BAM glass flys from behind me. The guy that hit me was on his phone not paying attention to the road and hit me pretty hard, then i hit the highlander infront of me. In conclusion, pay attention to the road!

So sad, the car was only 3 months old.

I will be selling the ARK exhaust after i take it off tomorrow.










Do you guys think this would be considered total?

I see the possibility for the car being totaled, as it looks like it took structural damage. Sorry to hear that, glad you are ok though.

Ouch. It hurts to see that. I hope you came out of it ok. And yeah, that definitely looks totalled. I would sue the hell out of the person responsible. Tsk tsk, another black sedan bites the dust.

whoa that guy nailed the **** out of you. When i was younger, a guy hit me going 40 mph while i was at a stoplight and my radio literally broke the mounts and flew out of my dash, landing in the back seat. Im sure you're feeling the effects this morning but im glad to see you're alive and at least able to post up. The damage to that looks pretty extensive. Even if it isnt totaled i dont think i would want a car back that had that much repair to it because it will never be the same again.

Hope you weren't at fault for hitting the car in front. In most situations you would be. But it looks like you were hit pretty hard. Make sure to get yourself checked out by a doctor.

Cop didn't give me a citation for hitting the car infront of me since i was already stopped when the guy hit me from behind. so far i'm not feeling sore from this accident! What sucks is that i got hit yesterday and today i got a 14hr drive to Breckenridge for some snowboarding.

@RhiNoKiLL: I dont think im going to go thru the trouble and get the hids out... just get them from ebay. it's like 30$ for a new set lol. I've bought over 8 sets for my/friends cars and they work great. Hids should be the only thing off ebay u buy

Texting while driving should be fined like a DUI. Glad you're OK.

Its not fined that hard here, but it is illegal. Its around a $400 fine here.
