Some asshole in an orange Land Rover smashed into use changing lanes without looking. Fucker.

I loved this car. I'm genuinely sad, and have been all day. This is the car I learned to drive in, fought in, talked in, played in, ect.

I want to kill that bastard. It wouldn't be so bad if he had to swerve to avoid something, but he missed an exit, swerved into our lane to try to make it, and smashed into the front right of our car. We swerved off the road, and smashed into the median.

I'm not really sure what happened next, but the next thing I know my dad and I are up on the median somehow. I couldn't see ground, and I thought we were rolling. Lucky we didn't.

It's hard to type this without getting sadder, so it's time to end.

Share your stories of accidents and sadness.

No one hurt.

And yes, it was damaged badly.

Apart from the underside of the car, which I didn't check, the radiator was fucked, there was transmission fluid all over, all the panels from the doors forward were fucked, and I hate to think of the rest of the engine and frontal parts.

This is the reason I don't keep a bat in my car; it would be too easy to come out swinging and land in prison... I do keep my 9mm in my car and 12ga in the trunk, but for me it's easier to exercise restraint with a gun than a bat.

Lol, judging by the story and thge picture, the only impacts were in the front, and the trunk is out of alignment;)

But that sucks. Some people are idiots.

Maybe it's just a crap panel gap. They must have hit it on the left hand side, and from the one photo, the wing and wheel don't look too badly out.
