I would say wreckless driving.

There is no way you can slam into a car in front of you going 70 unless you didnt make a basic driver error.

Unless someone out of nowhere switched into his lane but i doubt that since he didnt mention it.

He said insurance wont cover it for reasons he cant discuss.

That explains everything.

How about we just delete this and you post your part-out when you're ready.

You don't need this drama - what's broke is broke.

Why does it matter why, at least he's, and the other people, are OK. Life lessons, don't always come free. Hope you get some good money out of the part out.

Who cares why he wont tell.

Whats done is done. His car is done, he's fucked because insurance didnt cover it and he's learning his lesson.

No offense to you man but i guess you deserve it if its bad enough to where you cant tell us.

That means you're guilty.

I'm sure youll be able to discuss at a later date. You just trying not to admit guilt at this point, so basicly your in the middle of Lying to your insurance company. Good luck I hope they buy your story. So in a couple of weeks after they send the adjuster to appraise the car, let us know how it went.
LOL- im only assuming>= me the ***.
