You okay? I just got my car back so I feel your pain.
At first look, it doesn't look too bad. The airbags popped thoughBumper, radiator supports, radiator/condenser, rim/tire, and who knows what else.

It doesn't look bad at all...shocking how much damage was done.![]()
I'm fine, have a sore thumb (there's a blood spot under the nail, lol).
I was in the far right (turning) lane, car was in the far left, decided he wanted my lane, I braked hard, and plowed straight into one of those concrete "dividers" that are at intersections to break-up the straight lanes from the turning ones. This was at 30 and Griffin.

I also forgot to add in control arms, though that's pretty obvious with how bad the rim is.

Dude that sucks. I got run off the road one time in my old car and I hit something hard on the underside. Got lucky though no airbags. Sorry to hear about it.

One thing that was kind of ironic.... I have free towing w/ my warranty, so I used it. The guy that came out looked at my car, and started telling me about a blue RSX that he towed the night before. That was a guy on CRSX that got hit from behind and pushed into the guardrails on the west-bound 183 bridge exit from 360. His impact was around 50 or so, and he swapped ends a few times, hitting both the left and right guard rails. No airbag deployment though.

Yeah, they are just at the wear bars right now, so they're still decent.

Dood, no way! That totally sucks.I'm glad you're alright, but it sounds like the damage to your RSX won't be cheap to repair.

The other car didn't stop; I should have let him plow into me. I can't wait to see what my insurance is going to cost now![]()

Does this go down as an "at fault" accident? Most people don't drive into dividers for no reason. It seems more similar to a hit and run, where another driver was clearly at fault but drove off.
Do you think he or she knew you wrecked?
S.
It's going under collisionI need to call and ask if it's going to be at fault, but I think it is.
I don't think they knew I was there, just kept on going like nothing happened![]()
