Well today, I got into a really bad accident.

I was sitting at a stop sign and across the street is this old green van. All the sudden i hear its tires squeel and I'm like "what?" because there are still cars coming. So it gets closer to me and this Benz comes from my right and the next thing I know my air bags go off and my car if filled with smoke. I get out and the Benz is sitting in front of my with just a little damage (headlight shattered, bumper had minor damage). I turn around and the van is slowly trying to drive away. Luckily, there was an ambulance right by us when the accident happened and I guess it called the police. The police stop the van and then I was asked for my license and insurance as soon as 2 more cops came. Anyway, both my low beams were destroyed, the entire left side of bumper was destroyed, my left fender was destroyed, my hood was lifted but somehow still latched, I think my left axle is ****ed, my windshield was cracked on the passenger side and looked like someones head hit it, and the passenger window was completely shattered and looked like it exploded. My sister was passenger seat and said she was fine and that her head did not hit the window but right now, she went to the hospital because her head was hurting( the accident happened at 4:20 pm, its 7:20 pm now. The woman in the van DID NOT have I.D. or license or anything so she went to the police station but I'm scared that she doesn't have any insurance. I am also afraid that my Celica will be considered totalled mad.gif frown.gif . All that matters is that if it is totalled, I'm for sure getting another 6 gen. I just love them too much.

BTW, everyone was fine I am just worried about my Celica

No I had no injuries.

That sucks about the mx3. Drunk drivers should be more responsible. I'm only under liabilty too and none of the accident was my fault. I just happened to be sitting at a stop sign and was involved in an accident. I also got the most damage out of all 3 of us.

At least your ok. The same thing happen to me almost a year ago. I was driving my girl friend's old car (98 Eclipse), we were coming home from going out with some friends and I was sitting at a red light and someone rear ends me. Than a week or two later when we were taking her car in to get fixed from that accident, I was starting to make a left turn and the person behind me wasn't paying attention and clip me as I was turning. The only accident's I've ever been in was in that car. My girl friend got rid of that car as soon as they were done fixing it.

Sorry to hear about your wreck, and I hope everyone turns out to be ok.

If they total your car and are looking for another one, there is one at a lot near you, I thought about checking on, but it is way to far for me to drive just to see it right now.It's called Auto Outlet, ask to speak to Jon Betancourt, he sent me alot of pics of the car before I found out exactly where Crestwood was located.Tell him Greg from Ky that he has been sending info to sent you in, so he can give me a referal fee.lol

It looks like a nice car from the pictures and he was very helpful, but with my injuries from my accident, a 7 hour drive one way is impossible right now.Do check the car over, like i said I just saw pics of it, but as I have been finding out recently, pictures can be deceiving.

I hope you have better luck in your search than I am having.

the air bag on the passenger side will break the windsheild making it look as though a head hit it. Glad to hear everyone is still in good health.

It sounds like celicas are crap for safety, was this crash in the viilage 30mph (speed) or on a motor way 70mph???

celica's are awesome for safety, the more a car crumples the better usually, alot of people have been in accidents on this site and they all seem to come out fine, the car though is another story.

I didnt exactly understnd how you got hit... i guess im just an idiot...
