Dude i know completely how it is, old people (for the most part) have no business driving. They simply cannot see or they just dont care. They figure they're gonna die soon so why waste my time driving safely, so then they hit someone and act like its the others fault....makes me HATE old people.

Dude, old people need to get around just like the rest of us. I think it might make sense for them to be required to have their sight and reflexes checked a little more often.

I feel for your pain man. Push for them to call it a total loss if it's bad enough, and get another 8.

Did the other driver admit he was at fault? Did a police do a write up (I hope so for your sake)

I know that's gotta be damn hard to take. Try to stay positive, knowing that it wasn't your fault.

Sorry man... that sucks. I learned how to drive in St. Pete, FL, so I know what it's like to be driving among the 'living dead'... it was a miracle I wasn't ever hit

Post pics when you get a chance...

I've had a Crossfire almost back into me, an SUV roll through a stop sign when I had the right of way and was already halfway through the intersection, and a big *** cargo van take a wide right turn so that it was coming at me head on. I just assume they're staring at my beautiful car and forget to concentrate on their driving! Like a moth to a flame...

Seriously, dude, that sucks. At least no one got hurt. I got hit by an older driver going about 25 mph while I was walking through a parking lot (you can tell the speed by the length of the skid mark). Now that was painful! Fractured two vertabrae and my shoulder. His insurance company ended up paying enough for two RX-8's! Damn, I should do that again and get a downpayment for a house.

I gues i can resize the pics for you lazy guys. but its the day after and no back paines woot. I did some stretches last night anyway. It's not like this was a simple mistake by his part this seemed to be a well calculated plan to enrage me. he seriously ran a stop sign to stop in teh middle of the road??? it was nuts.

And to top things off. today i was 2 roads away from my house driving to school {backroads} and a ford taurus almost heads on me he was in the middle of the road so that would be halfway in my lane im glad he swerved away else the insurance comp would be like WTF.
