Some old gal in a Saab thought it was her turn to go behind me and gunned it slamming into the back of my Vert today. Goning to have to get a new bumper cover but that is the least of her problems, she hit me so hard my hand flew off the shifter and I punched my dash and my head slammed back into my headrest. Going to wind up going into the doc's office tomorow as my whole right side is in pain now. Not how I wanted to spend my weekend. And I now have a nice imprint of her license plate ring on my 2 month old paint job.

Nope but she did try to take off. She had the nerve to look at me and say oh doesn't look like any damage and started to get into her car to leave. I told her go ahead and leave I'll report it as a hit run and then she got really nasty with me.

Luckily she was insured but we will see what happens there as we both have the same insurance company. I'll see how I am feeling in the morning right now I am not feeling to good.

ibuprofen, tylenol, and rest.

get to the docs and see if you can get some flexeril and possibly vicodin for the whiplash.

Being that you have the same insurance company doesn't matter. I had a women run a stop sign 2 years ago, I made contact with her bumper to bumper. We both had state farm, they tok care of it, just charged everything to her policy. Sorry to hear that you got hit. I'm sure you'll be sore for a few days, def get seen by a doc ASAP in case anything is wrong, you need it documented.

That sucks man. Hope you're doin ok. Car accidents can screw up your neck and back pretty bad.

If and when you decide you wanna get the car fixed, I can do the work for you and could save you some money. I've done quite a bit of work for people here on stangnet. Just send me a PM and let me know. but most importantly take care ofe yourself.

Man, I'm sorry to hear that. Some people just weren't meant to be behind the wheel of a 3000+ machine.
