Highway Wreck at 65 into a wall...
On my way to the police academy on Wed I was run into the wall by a semi at 65 mph almost head on...
The insurance guy came out and said it was going to be at least $8,000 in repairs and it wasn't totalled (*air bags didn't go off either*)
I honestly don't want the car back I would rather them total it but if I have to keep it where should I get parts from...
The front fenders are smashed into the door, the front bumper is gone as well as the hood and the back has slight damdge the heaviest is the front bumper and the lightest is the rear... I want to go with cobra replacement parts for the front and sides...

truck drivers suck at driving. i dont care if this is a generalization, but most truck drivers think they own the ****ing road. ive been run right off a traffic circle from an idiot trucker, and one almost flatened me on the highway when he decided to go into my lane, by my lane i mean MY EXACT LOCATION ON THE ROAD. the ******* even looked at meas he was doing, i had to slide off the road and punch it to avoid death. sue the ****ing bastard

The don't think they own the road man THEY DO...they are 4 times the size of anything else on the road...they are tough to drive and even tougher to see around.
Give them there space
if you hit a wall doing 65 mph you wouldn't have a motor left...if would be on your lap....so did you glance the wall?
