Hey,

Well first off i'll start by saying this was my fault which sucks the most. I was turning left at a light and don't know what went through my head but i thought I was good to go. I went through and didn't see a guy going through the light at about 50km/h. By the time I realized it either i floor it and he hits my drivers side door or I wait and he hits my front end.

So he hit my front passenger right where the tire is. I think it's totaled, a lot of damage to her, axle is bent in pretty sure there is chassis damage. Good thing is I only owe about 5000$ on it and I can claim all the mods I put into it including intake, tint, electronics my brand new winter tires in which i just put on yesterday. So at the very least i should at least break out even.

I did get a ticket for unsafe left turn 110$ and points which sucks. It just sucks as i owe a lot of money right now and this is the last thing I need.

This just happened i'm pretty upset, embarrassed and shooken up. Plus i busted my knee pretty bad. ARRGG I feel like such a retard.

I've never had an accident not even close.

Wow, sorry to hear it. At least you're okay, in the end that's what's most important. Oh, is the other guy okay?

Sorry about your luck. At the very least you are ok except for your knee which will get better. No matter what the insurance company offers you first don't accept it, they will low ball you like no other.

I don't know. Money is quite tight hope I at least break even with this car. Don't want anything outstanding. I was thinking of a VW Golf or Jetta GTI or something. But might end up with something real cheap like a Ford focus for now...not sure. any suggestions.

Sucks because I was done mod'ing my accent it was exactly to the point i wanted it.

I would suggest a neon. But they aren't everyone cup of tea. You could also pick up a nice EGT if you look hard enough.
