Stupid Caltrans Cone Trucks!!
Driving home around 10:45pm tonight on the 90 (Marina) Freeway in Socal. Right around a bend on a non-lit area of the freeway and I see a stack of 3 cones laying on their side right in front of me... too late. Nailed em straight on at about 65-70mph had to get the CHP guy to help me pry em out of my front end as he held onto the cone and I reversed. All I got was a blurry picture of the cone truck on the side of the road near the CHP cars with a row of cones bending and practically falling off the back.
Net result is that my front bumper is cracked and the radiators is a few inches further back and cracked (dumped its entire contents of antifreeze on my garage once I got home).
Anyone have a similiar experience. Not sure how much this might cost and whether I should even bother claiming the insurance. Guess this is also a post for WTB - PPW OEM Front Bumper and WTB - OEM Radiator 5AT.
