that sucks bro! if someone hit my car, im not so sure i would be able to control myself...
i am strongly against old people driving. not 6 months ago, some old fart that took too many pain pills drove right into my car (my previous vehicle, a civic si) while it was parked at work. not only that, he hit 2 other cars and jumped about three curbs before i was told about the incident and had a chance to catch up to him. anyway, he steps out of the car and the guy could not even keep his balance. he starts leaning on my car (which infuriates me) and i am only holding my tongue because my boss and co-workers are all outside looking at me. the cops show up and as the officer approaches him, he falls over, repeatedly. the punch line is that this idiot did not even get a DUI even though he was clearly intoxicated and unable to maintain balance. thank god he didnt kill any pedestrians... if this had been anyone other than an old man they would have gotten a DUI in about 2 seconds flat.
either way, hope your ok, and also that insurance covers your work.

Most important thing is you not getting hurt, a car is a car. It does not breathe and has no feelings. I wish you well in your return back to form. As of now, I tottally agree with senior citizens driving, they should not be on the road, but when I become a senior citizen, I might disagree what I've said.

Holy cow Batman!
I was in an accident like that on my Celica. A big rig kept hitting my car, like 4 times because he did not see my car.
I drive a bright fire engine red celica!

Do you have the side airbags installed in your Z? And if so, did they deploy?

but the old birds air bag did deploy and it bounced her around like a yoyo
, I am pretty scared of air bags and i am thinking about a MOMO steering wheel minus the air bag.Question for all you guys?
Isnt it illegal to have a car without an air bag steering wheel?
I am so glad that she got cited because her insurance realizes she f***ed up
They were like"Well, it takes about a week to get the report and until we have it she is not liable!!" I said " I have the report in my hand what your fax number?"
I WISH THE OFFICER HAD JUST WRITTEN FAIL ON HER TICKET
