And I would only feel sorry to a certain degree. When I have been in situations where the setting sun is in my eyes I slow down, he did not and maybe it is time for him to stop driving if he is that old.

looks like the b-pillar is done in. I'd put money on totaled. Well, this is why you have insurance, so don't worry about it. You can always get a new car.

Most importantly, glad you weren't hurt. Secondly, I don't think your car is a total loss. But looking at it makes me go for the tissues.....

good that your not hurt. thats why we have insurance. im gonna say its boarder line totaled. especially if the main structure is bent. make sure you go to a body shop that has a good reputation and a experienced frame guy to make sure its straight.

Damn ... I was hit buy a red light runner back in June ... $11,000 in damage .... and it wasn't totaled. Your car does not look totalled to me ... just needs a new 1/4 panel and door .... The repair bill needed to be 75% of the value of the car before Progressive would total it .... as you can see from the pics ... the accident took out my door, 1/4 panel, hood, both fenders, radiator core support, entire front clip and needed to be put on the frame machine to pull the front rails back straight.

Believe it or not, it won't be totaled.
Just make sure to find a good body shop.
The Insurance company will probably tell you to go to their prefered shops.
Usualy, it's bad news. Avoid them.

Take your car to a restoration shop if you can help it. They'renormally the best for quality.

Good luck.
