She saved my life tonight boys and girls. I miss her already ❤

kid was speeding and blew a red light; didn’t even see him coming. 5 car accident. The silver car in the blurry pic is his car. He got ejected from it onto the sidewalk and had to be stretchered away. Luckily me and the others involved only had minor injuries but my teg is definitely totaled. Sad day

Aww wow. Glad you made it okay. Crazy how things can change in the blink of an eye.

Any plans for a new ride?

Wow glad you're ok. Did the airbags help?

Pouring one out for her tonight.

Thanks mate I appreciate the kind words. Still doesn’t feel real!

ideally I’d love to get back into an integra. Maybe this time I’ll do myself a solid and get the 6 speed. May go to an Si as well as they added the features I wanted that weren’t offered in the ‘22 model year and what lured me to the integra in the first place. I’ll be sure to update you all once everything is worked out insurance-wise etc.

Thanks mate! Absolutely they did. The side curtains in the front and rear went off and saved my head from smashing my driver window/a pillar. Luckily the steering wheel bag didn’t deploy and ruin my money maker ;) got some good bad burns on the left of my face though but nothing too bad.
Amen brother; poured a little up myself when I got home! Cheers mate 🤙

Sorry to hear this situation, hope nobody was too injured.
Thanks mate. I and two other drivers are ok just minor injuries. The kid that blew the light was ejected from the car and had to be taken away to the hospital. Still not many details. A lot of calls to make today :(

My first joke I told to my gf after we got home and settled down a bit 😂 a little bit out of my price range unfortunately but will use this bad situation to go 6 spd for sure; looking at another integra or the new si possibly now that they’ve added the features which drove me to the integra when it released

I worked with a guy (internationally) in Mount Pleasant, PA who got hit by a drunk driver. Thanks to his settlement he went from a V6 Camaro to a new at the time when it happened C7 Corvette, not a dime out of pocket, everything was from the insurance company of the other person.

Don't know your law and regulations, but a Type S might be a possibility if you're entitled to a similar compensation.

Ive never been in an accident like this so all of this is new to me. I’ve been doing some research and it sounds like the other party is o it responsible for the Actual Cash Value (ACV) of my car? So I’m looking at enough to cover what I still owe on the car (to the bank) and maybe a few dollars left over. My insurance co is getting access to the police report today so things should be moving now that they have the other drivers info. I’m going to call an attorney today also to see if they can assist as I have no car to get around and also ensure alongside my insurance that I get ‘ made whole ‘ again.
Did your coworker own the Camaro outright? Man if I was entitled to more money that would be a no-brainer for me to get into the type-s. Been drooling over it since it got announced but was always just out of reach financially for me.
The kid blew a light and took out me and two other cars so he was for sure as negligible as a drunk driver. Idk what he was thinking or if he even was at all.

I don't know but given his job, he probably still owed.

I think the crux of his settlement was the drunk driving part. I'm not sure but I wouldn't think that running a red light is equivalent, however again I'm ignorant to your laws, just thought I'd share an anecdote that was pretty similar to your situation. Perhaps a question to your insurance or even with a lawyer to see if you're entitled to anything more than just your car's value.

Right on and I appreciate you sharing. Up u til then I thought I was only entitled to my cars value and maybe covering my trip to the doctors and some PT for my neck. I am working with an attorney as of this morning and he has opened my eyes a bit more too to what I may be entitled to possibly more which I am thankful for. Missing some work for going to the doctors and the general big wrench this has thrown into my life. Thank you again for sharing good sir!!
