Somehow didn't see the stopped car ahead waiting to turn left. Car is gone but good news is the only injury to him was a bruise on lower leg.
Old enough to know me limit, yet young enough to exceed it.

Yeah the Focus is a tough little number in the head ons.
When I hit the idiot who ran the red light and I T-boned him, everything forward from the wheels was pulped and I walked away no worse than I already was :D (In fact the tipping point to writing it off according to the adjuster that saw the car, was the fact that the engine mounting bolts were sheared off :ph34r:) NefCanuck

Naw, green machine is still going strong.
Rocker panel rust and all (strange because dirt doesn't last more than a few days on the car) All my damage was cosmetic (believe it or not) The transport was a write off. Flipped and took out about 300 yards of guard rail and shoulder with it. i should know, I was getting the bills from the city of Barrie. That accident cost my insurance company at the time something like 120k. :lol:

Knocked it clear off the highway. :lol: TEAM PITA: Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.

I swerved to miss a piece of tire in the middle of my lane, touched the soft shoulder and drifted into the ditch in a spin, I then cranked the wheel, and when the tires hooked up again, it shot me into the side of the truck next to me. I got charged with an "unsafe lane change" even after 10 cars behind me saw me swerve to miss the debris. My wife was asleep in the passenger side.

He missed his exit and tried to make it. car went over the curve and went flying in the air. when he landed side ways car flipped 4 times and landed on its side i guess. he tired taking better pictures but the tow truck yard does not allow a pictures unless its taken by the insurnace adjuster. Usually adjuster will give them the pictures. I guess i can post more when he gets them. uncle said if it wasn't for the MB he would have been dead by now and thank God all 3 were wearing seat belts. I bet he won't be making careless turns like that anymore. Specially now that he has to take a bus for a while :D
