Default New Years Accident

I was DD on New Years. Took my friend home, and was about a mile from my house. The road was narrow, oncoming car was speeding and came into my lane, and I got put in the ditch. Missed pole by inches, bumped around a bit. The rear bumper seems it can just be placed back on. The front, not so much I'm taking it to the shop Monday, my fear is frame damage or any kind underneath.







Happy New Years to me :/

That sux. Did they stop after they hit you? Was it DUI? Glad you aren't hurt.

I was going 45ish on a 35, and he came a lot faster.. my guess he was drunk. I'm going to order a new front bumper from Roush, something nice. She'll be back, stronger

Check out dash cams too, in case this happens again.

Welcome to the forum, be glad it's just property damage, could have been. ALOT worse.

Not a good way to start new year.

Don't think you have any frame issues to worry about.
