(Update) She\'s tougher than she appears!

Was having a great day until two people decided to make mistakes causing a collision. Then sending the car into me. There was one minor injury to a passenger of another vehicle. Everyone else is fine. I have the 3M wrap on the front so not even a scratch. Taking it to be checked out tomorrow but there is zero visible damage. The car pushed my car back about a foot even with my foot firmly in the brake. pretty fortune day for everyone, considering the front end of the civic isn't no longer there.


UPDATE:
Took it to the shop to make sure everything was good...it's not. $800 in body damage. Most likely will go up once they pull the front end. Suspected radiator framing damage underneath.

Not gonna lie, it DOES look like that from the pic.

So in reality, you got "frontended" by the Civic. Instead of you rearending the Civic?

I guess you can look at it from that angle too. Haha but yes I did get "front ended" by the civ considering before the accident I was stationary and stayed stationary until they pulled the civ off of me. The whole thing was just weird.

You know in Korea, moving your vehicle even an inch would be "hit and run" and considered tampering with the scene, no matter the location. Even on the expressway.

Your car might have little car nightmares for a while, you might get woken up by the car alarm going off in the middle of the night and have to go sleep in the garage with it.

Glad you and the car are okay.

Same in Mexico.

Causes a traffic nightmare but not much one can do. Even if you're not at fault, and you move the car- you'll automatically lose in court for tampering with the scene before the authorities arrive

Your location may suggest a dash cam to be a valuable tool for the safety of your panther.
