I wrecked my car last night - Tuner-Junction

I was crossing this highway near my house and i didn't see this car comming from my left. She slammed into my drivers side door and my car spun through the intersection and into another car. It's a bad thing to be on the phone and go and hear screeching tires and look left and all you see is "red car", you tense up then BAAAANG!!!!!!!!! The first thing i remember is my girlfriend on the line yelling my name across my cell, which was still in my hand. I climbed out my drivers side window and shook myself off cause i was covered head to toe in glass. My car's totalled but nobody got hurt. Actually my back kinda hurts now. idk I'll try to get some pics up by tonight or tomorrow night.

Make sure you get to a Chiropractor. If you don't, you will regret it 10 years from now! Glad you are OK.

the AU isnt the only place cellphones is illegal to use while driving. same law applies to most places here in the us like new york, new jersey, conn, etc. im sure there are more states with the same law or are passing the same law.

Damn dude sorry to hear about the Rex! Glad you're okay though. Go see a physiotherapist for sure though!

This is why my new cell phone has speaker phone.

The thing is, the bushes are real high on the left at that intersection. I probably didn't see her because of that. Is the state at blame cause you cant see left there for shit cause of those bushes and tall grass.

Man I feel for ya. I couldnt live without my car. The best thing to do would be to buy another and make it even better.

I was gonna lose my liscense in a month cause of a dui and i was gonna have to sell the rex anyway to pay for the fines. I'm thinkin of gettin a rental car untill they take my liscense so i can drive to my new girlfriend's house and around town. My rex wasn't in the best of shape, it took $500 to get it inspected this year and it would be even more $$$ next year so i was gonna get rid of it in the next year, i just did't think it would all be so sudden.

But yeah it has graduated to parts car status. PM me if you want anything off it(engine, interior, exterior, anything)

Hmm does your car have A/C? Or any of the a/c? Such as the climate control or anything? It would really be a great help if I could get any of this. Its summer time and im dying. Or even any heater parts.

Since i'm not loosing my liscense for another 4-5 months i guess i gotta get a new vehicle to get to work and back. I'm thinkin about this one beater toyota truck my friend is sellin. I think it's a 80 something and he wants about 5-600 dollars for it. My other choice is a 97 neon for 1400. idk about that one.
