Default First Accident!

So I was driving to the college on the 31st.for my night class and there was a bus and two trucks in front of me. The bus decided to stop short to drop off some people and we all had to slam on our brakes. I honestly think I blinked, everyone in front of me stopped, and I didn't. No damage to the guys truck in front of me but my fog lights and touching my radiator. (the right one was out anyway) So it go towed and Iam without my baby fornow. I needed to vent. [:@] I didn't get any pics or I would put them on here. It's really not that bad but I'm freaking pissed.

The other drivers and I arefine by the way.

Just lucky you're not hurt, nor anyone alse. It's only metal and plastic after all. Mostly its the inconvenience that usually pisses you off, being without your car, insurance hassles, waiting etc.

I agree with drbobvs - the inconvenience of doing without the car and the pain of dealing with insurance is the worst part. I went through this in November. Someone totaled my Nissan 200SX. But I replaced it with a GT, so these things can come out good in the end.

Now, go out in the back yard and shake your fist and yell really loud. You'll feel a lot better.

Sorry for the accident. Onethe bright side (if there's one), if you ever wanted to change the front fascia, now may be a good time,since you may have some painting required..not sure you do, but just in case. Glass always half full!

Dude! I'm the same. I swapped to GT bumpers because my other bumpers were dinged up by Walmart. My I put in sway bars and GT rims/tires after I got run off the road. Every time there's an accident, she comes out better and better. Just waiting for someone to mess up my hood now!
