Hate to hear that but I know how you feel. I too wrecked my L about a week ago because of some idiot on the road. Worst feeling in the world is to hear your L against a gaurdrail...

Some things baffle me.

How does someone that can't even write a simple, structured, comprehensive paragraph hold down a job that pays enough to afford a Lightning?

It is quite obvious that any of my taxes being spent on public education are just dollars being pissed away. What a shame.

littlegelding,

The old lady should lose her license? It doesn't sound like the old lady had an accident. You did.

If anything, there should be restrictions on who gets to buy Lightnings.
