most importantly she is fine and walked away unscratched. just a red mark from the seatbelt.

heavy morning rush hour traffic about 35-40 mph and some jackazz 2 cars up locks his brakes up for no reason the car in front of my wife locked her brakes up. so my wife locks hers up and hits the car that was behind the jackazz. other chicks car was a toyota solara. its bumper fell off. very minimal damage. she was fine too. didnt complain of any injuries and signed a form with the EMS saying she was fine.

my wifes front end is all messed up. both airbags deployed, front bumper, hood, both front quater panels, headlights all are damaged. looked under the hood and the radiator, fan and all that crap is pushed back into the motor. i guess the crumple zones worked. its only worth $9 grand so i think its safe to say there is over $6 grand in damage. no biggie, the car can be replaced. already looking at 07 GTs.

so the chick was making small talk with my wife and asked what my wife does. (accountant) so later on today she goes to the hospital. i hope she isnt trying to get some money out of us just because she thinks my wife is rich or something. keep you fingers crossed for me.

on a side note USAA has been awesome and treated us well. we got a chrysler 300 for a rental until we can get this all sorted out. should know by tuesday if the stang is totalled or not.

 

 

Ouch... Glad everyone is okay.

What year was the Stang that she wrecked? GT?

 

dave - lmao. its her car thats a funny pic though

closer - 2004 torch red v6 convertable/black top/black leather interior. my wife loved it. her dream car.

probably wont get a conv again though. i never felt safe in it. kinda weird i guess. but we will be getting a gt this time if i have my way.

 

Oh...whoops.. Figured you let her borrow your car...Maybe I should have read the post.

 

i wish that were the case but the other girl said he did it for no appearant reason. looked back and saw the wreck and kept on going

 

sounds like a textbook application of the friendly 'brake check' wherein one driver politely reminds the driver following of the principles of safe distance and speed control--i'm sure the driver felt his message was conveyed concisely with no need to reiterate verbally and thus went for ice cream or other asundry treat to reward himself for such effective communication of driver's etiquette

i'm glad everyone is ok, hope you find a nice gt to replace

 

, not at the crash, but at how true that is ^^^

 

Glad to hear your wife is OK. Good luck with the new car search!
