    PP, the other driver was ok, I heard her say something about her shoulder prob nothing. They took my wife by ambulance she was pretty shaken up. I've been married to her three years and never heard her scream like that. I figured she was really bad injured but she said was more of a panic attack. Man she freaked me out I figured her legs were broken how she was hollering bless her heart. We both got XRays everything's good.

    Precious I'm scared to think if we weren't
    wearing out seatbelts or no air bags.

    GoVegan yeah if my wife or my F&T were messed up there would be hell. I believe the 90mph it feels like a baseball hit me.

        Sorry to hear about that but glad you and your wife are alright Eric. Car wrecks are always horrible, no matter how minor they may be damage wise.

        Hopefully you will get a new car out of the ordeal.

          Man, who did you piss off? It seems like you have had some terrible luck lately. Glad to hear you and the wife are okay and I hope your luck turns around soon (maybe with a new insurance-supplied car).

              Thanks deadohsky..

              I'm not feelin guilty about that marlboro red. Actually glad I smoked it I didn't really enjoy it except for the quick nic
              hit, it reminded me of why I switched to snus/snuff in the first place. I prefer the nic hit from a nice pinch of fubar grunt or D white. Or when that Jak's wintergreen gets a hold. I've actually been coughing since I smoked that damn thing. It was a good reminder why I quit. That's what's great about snus/snuff you can have a cig every once in a while and won't relapse.

                Quick question for you guys..

                Ok I was going about 5 mph Probably less turning into the shopping complex.. The speed limit along that stretch of Rd is 35 mph. She was driving a small type pick up, I was driving a compact 4 door. We were hit with so much force in the front the caving in went a few feet pass the radiator didn't see though if it hit the engine block, and of course the airbags deployed. Is it safe to say the other driver was speeding? I saw that truck in a blur. I would figure at 35 it would be a fender bender. I didn't hear any squeeling of breaks on the other drivers part. No horn blowing.

                  Hard to say; that really isn't enough to go on. 35mph is greater than a fender bender, but the exact damage depends on the cars, and exactly where they hit.

                    That's true, I just hope it's in my favor. I only have basic insurance can't afford another car. I'll let everyone know how it goes I won't know till Friday. I'm going to have to relax not think about it as much. It's out of my hands now. I did alot of snus and snuff last night lol I was a dual user for a few hours.

                      Glad to hear that you're OK. 35mph is about 56km/h which is actually pretty fast for a fender bender.

                      To give some idea here's a RAV4 crashing into a wall at 35mph:

                      and I think that most of these standard crash tests are done at around that speed:

                        Truth

                        Bro glad you all are fine and that no one was hurt.

                        I hope they can get the car taken care of and have you back up and running soon.

                        When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers

                            Glad to hear you and yours are in one piece, even if your car isn't. Hopefully this will be the last incident in your recent run of bad luck. Best wishes for better days ahead.
