[alt title] #1 reason teenagers shouldn't drive
After packing up my things at my sister's house in anticipation for our upcoming move into our first apartment on Feb 1st, Marisol and i were driving on US 23, heading southbound into Columbus from Delaware.
While stopped at a stoplight between Orange Road and Lewis Center Road, a small SUV driven by a kid no more than 16 or 17 rear ended me.
The force of the impact was severe enough that i was thrown around enough to take my foot of my brake, which made my car roll into a minivan in front of me, damaging my front bumper, and shattering her rear window because a folded up wheelchair rack on the back of her van hit her window.
Marisol was hysterical as well as myself, and after making sure she was okay i got out to survey the damage, which was hard to do on a cold night in the middle of the highway.
The following pictures were taken today when i went to get my belongings out of my car, using my phone...
The guy who showed up to let me into the compound said he was pretty sure it was Totaled just because the back end was so crippled, and it would be very costly to repar the lift gate and underbody...
I await the insurance company's ruling. Even though the Ohio State Highway Patrolman aid the driver of the Hundai was entirely at fault, there wass some doubt as to whether i hit the Van first, because the lady claims she felt her van it twice, and the kid claims that he thought he saw me hit her first.
BULL S***
The damage to my vehicle, and lack of skid marks, shows what happened, as described above.
JUST when i think things are going fine, idiot screws everything up...
