Reason for the gauge...

To tell the DRIVER that the road/s may have ICE on them.

Some roads will have ICE on them, before the ground will have ice on it.

With the right lawyer, it should make for a good lawsuit. Didn't the brain-dead planners ever hear of a Guard Rail?!

Sorry to see your car messed up like that. Looks like mine.

Glad you're OK -- man these cars are built safe huh?

Cars can be replaced. You can't. Start planning for your next ride!

Im really wanting to get another Z. So after the insurance and such settles down and i see what they are gonna do. I have a feeling they will drop me from coverage. Hopefully next year when alot of my tickets come off my record i will be able to get some better coverage. This has not been a good past day for me lol

Sorry to here about the Z but it's good you come out of it no worse for wear. As for Ins covering it 100%, good luck since you only made one payment on it. You wouldn't of by chance had gap ins? That would def help in this situation cuz that car is toast!

Definitely totalled.

I'd keep the wheel.. mount it over the fireplace or something.

Sheesh.. some people will do anything to get an '07.

J/K Glad you're okay... accidents suck.

Glad your o.k. man. At least it was only a base and it's culvert not culbert, ding-dong. However, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt since you prob. have a concussion since the airbag didn't deploy.
