So sorry that happened.

But the accident that took my 94 was pretty much the same, save the MB. A kid followed another car through an illegal turn - stopped right in the middle of the intersection when he finally saw me. Hell, I thought he was gonna keep going (I saw him) and there would not have been a problem, but he didn't - he admitted to the cop that he froze.

I clipped his rear quarter, setting off both airbags and ended up crossing the two north bound lanes (I was heading south) and ending up on that side on the shoulder.

I do remember looking through the airbag and seeing the front end of a truck as I was crossing the North bound lanes- lucky to still be here I guess.

The kid was crying by the time I pulled myself together and got out of the SVX - those damn air bags had me tangled up a bit.

It could've been worse. You had an angel with you.
