So sun night I was comin home from a friends house about 25 miles away. About 3 miles from his house i was getting onto a main road and BAM!!!! I look and see my pass side airbag deployed and my face is burning. Out of shock I get out of the car and call my brother who lives down the road from where the accident was. What hit me? A Semi with no trailer on it. thank god. spent the last 2 nights in the hospital. For the mostpart I'm ok. The car isnt and the truck is totaled as well. Goin to check out the car in a couple hours and hope to have some pics. A buddy sent a cell pic of my car and all i have to say is damn. Can't believe im here to write this!

 

i hope that you get to feeling better and that you get a nice chunk of $ for your totaled cls

 

damn man i hope u feel better.. ur life is worth more than a car which can be replaced =).

 

I still owed 12g's on it. doubt that i'll get anything back. just hopin i dont have to pay any for it. looks like I'll be drivin the $5 a gal. diesel for a few weeks though. sucks

 

my buddy just emailed a few pics of the truck and my car I just have no clue how to post them.

not sure if you can see in the pic of the truck, but i guess the front axle isnt even attached its just proped up. crazy!

I havent seen any of this in person yet. supposed to go see the catr in a bout an hour. gonna take more pics then. I'll post what i get.

 

ouch that sux bro!

i have some past experince with a truck myself.

my friend totalled my prelude in a similar fasion. 75mph into a standing semi. here's the results. (my boi came out with a few bruised ribs and some scratchs BTW, and the roof was NOT cut up but EMS but rather from hitting the truck)

 

damn. glad you are OK. sheesh that's a lot of damage to both vehicles.

 

Your ok, that's the important thing.

However I'd like to hear details on how this happened. Who was at fault? Who did what?

 

damn glad your ok.........

 

Glad you're OK. Cars can be replaced.

 

damn son, that could have been much worse.

was the accident your fault?

 

from the damage it looks like it was almost a head on collision

How do you not know a semi is coming at you?

 

Wow, that's the one vehicle on the road I wouldn't want to have a run in with, a freaking semi. Thank God you're okay and no one was hurt really bad.

 

I still dont know who was at fault. I'm pretty sure the truck crossed the double line. All I remember is lookin over and seein my pass. side airbag deployed. I wish I could describe how I didnt see the truck, Just a little hard to explain on the computer. I just am so happy that im still alive and can tell you guys this story. The garage that I went to clean my car out said that there aren"t too many people that tangle with 18-wheelers and can come clean out the car.

Took some more pics and I'll post them I'll just have to have one of you guys make it so you dont have to go to the link.

Thanks for all your support.

 

Dang dude! Glad you're ok. Sucks to hear about our cars getting wrecked up, but at least you are still here! Hope you get back to 100% here soon.

 

Just copy the link and then paste it in between [IMG] & [/IMG]. It's that easy.

Like this: [IMG]*paste link here*[/IMG]

 

ins. company just called car is a complete total over 16k worth of damage and he said the truck was also a total loss.


but here are some more pics





mod edit: fixed pics

 

^^^^^^sorry, I tried

 

Damn, good thing you're alive! Never heard of the semi getting totaled too, sheesh. If you didn't believe in a god before, I'd start believing now

 

Glad to hear you are ok.

Who's at fault...or is it a no fault state?

 

Fixed.

And good to hear you're okay.

I almost got t-boned by a semi about 6 or 7 years ago. I luckily managed to swerve out of the way.

 

thanks for the fix AZ.

We are a fault state. just went to police station to pick up my license. cop said he was gonna issue a ticket for me running a stop sign and unsafe driving. which is complete BS. no one witnessed the accident but for me and the truck. sucks when you cant speak for yourself. thats why we have lawyers i guess.

 

Glad you are still here.

Ive had an accident or two where I'm pretty lucky I'm here to type this as well.

Just take it slow.

 

Definitely sad to see, but I'm VERY glad you walked away.

 

that will buff right out.....

 

Glad to see you're fine as well. That was a close one. As others said, cars can be replaced.

 

Goddamn brotha. Glad you're alright.

 

Wow! Good to know an Acura can fight to a draw with a Volvo Truck!

 

WOW that hurts just to look at... so sorry to hear about that, definitely sucks to have lost another ABP CLS6.

 

that's pretty bad ass that your CL totaled the semi.

 

How's you back and neck? And can i have a ride in the Ferrari your about to buy?

 

shit thing was that my bday is this comin up mon and my pops bought me tein s.techs and tokico hps

 

and all that doesnt matter much. i still have my life and thats the most important thing of all.

 

Wow.... Glad you are ok buddy...

 

Glad to hear you are ok, CLs are very safe cars, especially when you crash with a semi.

 

im glad youre ok man, please keep us updated. i still dont see how that is more than 16k of damage.. looks like nothing in the engine is damaged...

 

the whole body is twisted. the truck came up over the pass side A pillar. Axle sheared off the tranny. either way if they didnt total the car and rebuilt it, I would never drive it again.
