And it happens again...

This time I think it's done in...

What happened:

Guy pulled out in front of me, I had nowhere to go and my brakes weren't nearly enough to stop in the ~15ft I was given to stop.

What I know got taken out:

Hood
Fenders
Bumper
Support core
Driver's frame rail
Radiator
A/C condenser
Doors
Rear hatch doesn't line up
Airbags went off
Windshield

The Pics (shitty cell phone ones):

The Intersection:

This is the new gap in the hatch, it's almost enough to spin the key around in

I guess I can say it's been fun, I'll definitely miss it if it's totaled out. I'm not in the position to buy another car right now either, so I'm kinda screwed.

Also, my back this time around is 10x worse than the whole taxi incident. I was in a lot of pain sitting in the car and wasn't quite sure how I was going to get out. I almost took the ambulance ride, but by the time they got there, I was able to actually stand up. Will definitely be going to see the doctor tomorrow though, if I can find a ride.

That sucks. :(

PS
Scratch the motorcycle off of your wish list.

Sucks to hear. I hope everything works out. Their insurance should take care of you right?

Yeah, the guy admitted complete fault at the scene, was very apologetic and wanted to help as much as possible. I also called it in to his insurance and gave them everything they needed, and they called him while I was standing there and got his statement.

Wow... that sucks Adam. Take it easy, and let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

:(

That sucks Adam. Hope you feel better soon!

NO WAY!!!! :pale: I'm in shock and awe! It's as if it was never meant to be with the RSX.

:( Wow.......

Maybe this as your next vehicle?

That sucks.

Adam, hope your OK

Thanks for the concern everybody.

And it's not just the RSX, it was the 4 Miata's before it too. It's probably just me ::Censor::

Man I hope you are OK but that sucks for the car.

Injuries can compound so make sure you get checked out ASAP. I thought something was up when I saw Kristin's comment today. I just got back from work and saw your text and was thinking " Not again..."

If I can get a car/ride, I'll definitely make my way to my physician and chiropractor tomorrow. Can't wait to see what I feel like when I wake up tomorrow morning :(

Did you every have any problems driving the Liberty? Perhaps you were destined to be a Jeep man. :confused:

Yeah, I tend to forget about that thing though... I won't get into its issues, lol

I hope you're OK. (The car can be fixed/replaced.)

Replied on myspace.

Good things will come to you Adam. No Jeep Liberty though.

Take it easy and feel better.

Sorry about the car. Hope you doing ok. Make sure you get a good checkup from a doctor.

WoW...I hope everything checks out OK when you go to the doctor. I saw this and thought someone brought an old post back to life :(

lemme know when youre wanting to go to the doctor... if i get my cat, ill throw it on, get inspected and take you...

Dang, that sucks. I hope everything checks out at the doc's office.

That's awful :( I hope everything is gonna be ok.

Sorry to hear about this, Adam!

Hope everything checks out okay at the doctor.

That sucks, hope everything gets worked out ok with the insurance but maybe you should reconsider buying another red car next time. :D

Damn that sucks man.. I can't believe this crap keeps happening to you :(

Damn, sorry to hear!
Glad you're half-alright at least!

Dude!! I totally jinxed you. Sorry to hear about your back. I've got a really good massage therapist/acupuncturist I use. If you want his number let me know.

in for a cat scan!::Rimshot:

Hope everything gets better!

Hey at least your somewhat ok, hope everything turns out ok for you.

I'm reminded why I don't like dealing with other ins. companies.

Ended up calling and making a claim on my own. I won't have to wait 2 weeks for Farmer's to establish liability in order for me to get a rental car. 5 minute phone call to State Farm and they have my rental ready in about an hour.

Of course I'm out my deductible unless Farmer's gets their shit together soon and takes the claim before they decide the car is totaled.


Couldn't get an appt. today, but I set up 2 on Monday. If it's bad enough, I'll be heading to the hospital. I'm still pretty sore.

Consider yourself lucky! If it was just a second earlier, you would had been T-Boned! Good Luck!

True, but my back probably wouldn't hurt like it does if I had been t-boned. It was pretty scary not being able to move due to the pain.

I'm out til sometime late Sunday. RSX All State meet in San Antonio, figure I shouldn't let this stop me from going. I'll just write RSX on my shoes, hopefully that's acceptable ::Clown::

You may want to be wary of going. If you should ever have a medical claim against the other driver's insurance they'll be able to show that you were apparently well enough to drive to (or at least attend) San Antonio after the accident and before you claimed a medical. Just a thought...

that sucks...big time.

If it makes you feel any better. My jetta and miata have been hit when parked a total of 9 times. The miata couldn't even go 6 months without some dumbass hitting it in a parking lot.

I already claimed the medical and tried to get a doctor's appt. I even went to both of my doctors, just couldn't get in on a Friday with that short a notice.

That probably wasn't the best idea. Once you file a claim under your own policy, getting your deductible could be difficult. More importantly, when you come up for renewal that claim could come back to haunt you, even if it ends up being closed because the other inurance company determined their party was at fault. Don't ask me how I know this.

In the future I would suggest going to rent the car on your own nickel (assuming you have a credit card to secure the car), and send the other insurance company a bill once fault has been determined. You won't be billed for the rental until you return it, and by that time you should have fault determined and a check for a replacement vehicle or your own car back. Then submit the rental bill to the other insurance company and get a check for reimbursement.

No, my agent (not the company) is very good about keeping the higher ups in check. I went through this in January too, and he personally took care of it. That's why I've stuck with my agent so long and haven't bothered finding a cheaper insurance company.

Farmer's said it would take up to 10 days, so it's not like it's a long time anyways.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck, Adam. Hopefully your car isn't totalled, although even it it is, I bet you get a pretty penny for it from the insurance company. Now you can get that Si you've been dreaming about. ::Clown::
