Default Accident...

was on my way to school going 65 mph when my back end starts sliding out and fishtailing all over the place

I almost got it back but then I went off the road and tipped on my side

the front tire blew out, fender flares are torn off or cracked, side of the car has dents all over it, mirror got ripped off, the passenger window got blown out, and the windshield is cracked on the side

I believe there is some interior damage as well and I don't know if my sub and amp are broken

I came out of it with a bump and scratch on my head (yay seat belts)

pics may or may not be on the way

very sorry too hear that you had a crash but I was very happy too read that you were wearing your seat belt.

this is one Emt that has seen his share of mangled bodies due to NOT wearing them.

We have a saying around the Ambulance base, "any accident you can walk away from is a good accident", if there is such a thing"!

Hope you can get the ride repaired and good luck.
I'm happy that your still here to report this and not driving the big white blazer too the Spirit Lands...he he he !

Best of luck too you, hopefully you had insurance ?

got some pics of it in the shop and yes I I do have insurance but I have to pay the 1st $1000 and there is a chance that they could call it totaled [&o]


ripped of mirror and fender flair

bent the roof up

scraped up door panels and the blown out window / cracked windshield

besided the bent tire and the popped hood the front end is perfectly fine

Damn! Is the roof buckled? If so, that is going to be a pain to get back to spec.

Between the roof and the rear quarter...Id be suprised if they didnt total it. I'm kinda amazed the windshield didnt shatter?

Was it slippery out? Snowy? And if they total it...you might want to consider parting it out!
