hard to believe I wasnt injured internally from the door crushing me. Guess having a 6ft 4 225lbs frame helps My legs were pinned too, I cant remember how they got them out. They werent injured though really. My left knee is pretty sore but thats about it for the legs.

That is painful to look at.

What excuse/reason did the person that hit you have? Did they run a light? were they drunk? Are they in jail?

You are very lucky to be alive.

No one hit him, the road was wet and he lost traction

NO I cant take anything else off of the car, only thing I was able to get without sinking 3 feet in mud was my woodgrain steering wheel, but it has a slight bend in an area where the air bag bolts up. Ima either get it fixed and sell it or just sell it for cheap and the buyer can get it fixed. Wheel was basically brand new.

Thanks. IT happened on a road named Duley Station Road. Lots of twists and turns as well as rail road tracks with no rail road crossing stops. It was about .5 miles from Rt 301 and equidistantly 2 miles from bothe Gwynn Park high schol in Brandwine and Fredrick Douglass high school off of croom road.

Yea they definitely were. When the paramedics asked me how many people were in the car I kept telling them 3. So if you are a holy man take it as you want. I believe a higher being was looking out for us and saved us. I pray for thanks everyday even more now than ever. Unfortinately my aunt died the day after my accident. Weird how 2 lives were spared and 1 was taken. She had been battling with cancer for a few years tho and was in ALOT fo pain. Shes in a better place now.

Hey man, glad to hear the both of you are relatively unharmed. Those pictures are unbelievable..glad everyone was able to walk away. That door could've caused some serious damage to you..someone was lookin over you for sure.

Thanks all you guys I really appreciate all the sentiments

as for the projectors and everything else on my car, I wont be able to get them as I have no access to the car. When I did have access to it, they had it sitting in a mudhole hole and I couldnt work on the car in the mud without sinking. I wouldve really liked to sell everything off of my car but no dice on that

Glad you both are OK . Sideslam is worse than front on . ( you can't get any closer to point of impact ) was your TL-S an 02 or 03 and is that a Blackwood steering wheel or am I just seeing the picture wrong , any ideas on your next car.

MY TLS was an 03 and yes is a black wood steering wheel you saw. That was the only thing I was able to pull out, Ill probably be selling it soon. And below are my car choices. I was thinking about selling out to my Hondacura faithfulness & getting an 05 GTO 6psd but thats a long shot

you should man..those cars are nice. Heavy, but nice...plenty of power to boot. The 6mt gets excellent hwy economy. BIG power jump from the TLS to GTO..lots of aftermarket go faster goodies available as well..
