The worst night!
So it all started when we left Harrah's!
I got on the I-10 and started playing with another Z. The road was wet and traction was little. So I get on it a little too hard one time and start to fish tail a little bit. I quickly let off the gas and regain control but not before a Cop notices and begins to pull me over. We sat on side of the highway for 6-7 minutes and he never even got out of his car. Then he just took off and left me sitting there. I thought "this is the luckiest day of my life."
Still heading towards Baton Rouge on I-10 right after the Nola Airport exit, I see I'm coming up on a wreck and I'm THE FIRST CAR THERE. I stop in the left lane (cars and debris scattered the right one) and turned on my flashers. I jump out and run to the first car to find it empty. As I run to the next car I see 3 guys walking back yelling everything is ok, they called the police, and I should try to drive around it all and go home. Ok fine. I get to the hood of my car just in time for a fourth car to come crashing into the back of mine at about 65mph. I literally JUMPED on the hood of my car as they hit it and it was coming straight at me and almost fell off and over the bridge as it crashed into the side wall.
My gf was sitting on the passenger side and never even knew what hit her. She was ok though, just scared and crying alot. No one was hurt actually.
The cops sited me for (stopping on a highway) and causing the second accident. Even I stopped to render aid and had my damn flashers ON and the debris ****ing blocked me from passing.
I'm gonna find a good lawyer tomorrow... My Z is totaled!!!
I'll be parting it all out as soon as I get a green light from my insurance company. Look at my list of mods and claim what you want to. I will post pics soon.........

I was about 3 feet in front of my car when the other car hit it from behind. My car came at me with lots of other debris and sparks. It was like some ish from a movie. I jumped/fell on the hood and didn't have time to grab onto anything. It slid around and hit the guard rail and I slid off and hit the rail. I thought I was dead for sure. Then I sat for a second in disbelief that all of that just actually happened. I jumped up, checked on everyone, then ran up the street and started directing traffic till the cops showed up.
I have USAA and they are treating me pretty good so far. Still waiting to get an answer if they will let me pull off all the mods once they officially total it...
