Well actually my Mom and Dad are long gone, and I almost joined them.
On my way to a retired firefighters monthly breakfast.
Illegal ran a red light right in front of me.
I hit his drivers side door.
I was going slow enough to almost stop in time and did not activate the air bags.
The illegal climbed out the passenger side and was last seen running north on IL RT. 43.
No injuries to me, and obviously none to the other guy.
But...
less than 4,500 miles, and more than $5,400 to repair.
Fortunately I have good insurance and one of the top rated repair shops in all of Chicagoland.
My red Element was returned all shiny in just 7 working days.
It took a lickin but it did make me sicken.
PS: I bungied the stuff hanging off the front and was able to drive the mile back home. LOL
It bent but did not puncture the radiator.
I can't find where I stored the pics, darn it.
