That def sucks. Atleast you are ok. I have done the same in the past. Despite my phone being like a third arm or a lifeline I let it on the floor of the car until I come to a stop. It kills me to have my phone out of reach rolling on the floor but I know its safer. As Im sure you do now to.

Tough break. Chicago has a new law which prohibits you from talking on you phone while driving and the cops are d**ks about it. However, they still let you eat, put on makeup, shave, f**k in your car so go figure!

Glad your ok. The damage doesn't seem that bad. Only front bumper and hood. At least the car is still structurally sound.

$11,000 may be a little more if there are more parts damaged that they cant see.
