Hope everyone in the car was ok.
Same exact thing happened to me years ago with someone running an advanced green and then 'smack'. The car was a write-off.
Anyways yeah buy the svtf ;) .

Hopefully your car isn't a writoff, I Had a similar accident two years ago in my previous focus and it wasn't a writeoff. Just make damn sure you take it to Ford or a Body Shop you know well. Do not take it to some crappy body shop that your insurance recommends.....
I'd estimate 6000-7000 to fix everything.....
If its a writeoff, PM me I want to vulture some stuff hehe :)

The bags blew in the focus. Thats a pretty decent sign this focus is gonna be sent to the scrap heap. Should be the other guys fault 100%. People going straight have the right of way. Unless that yellow light thing plays a factor...

Yes he did have the right of way, but its the law to stop at a yellow light. Nobody does....but yeah, your suppose to start slowing down and stop at a yellow llight, not blast threw it.
EDIT: bags are blown :blink: ....I'm pretty sure they will write it off.

This is good news, all considered. Is your burn from the airbag, by any chance? I totalled my wife's '01 ZTW (hit broadside by loaded pickup, pushed into guard rail and over, down the hill) and the only injury I suffered was the removal of skin off my left wrist by the air bag.
I don't know if was because it was the airbag, but the SOB took forever to heal. Good luck with your injuries and your car. Just my .02, but you might be better off if they actually write it off.
cheers
