Another one bites the dust!!

hondagoalie · 12-28-2007, 09:38 PM

Ok so i hope everyone enjoyed their christmas.. This is what happened to me on MY christmas morning..

For those of you who dont know.. This is what happens when you hit a water pocket on the interstate.. Hydroplane across four lanes and hit a concrete barrier doing 75 in our cars...I think it will buff right on out.... enjoy

I hate to see another LX take a beating but skidding across 4 lanes of traffic at 75 MPH... it could have been a whole lot worse than what happened. Hope you are OK =) Next year will be better!

Glad you are ok. That's what is most important. Did any of the airbags deploy?

There it is!! Good eye.....

***07mugencivic*** · 12-29-2007, 01:07 AM

thats sucks...but it looks fixable

1bdazzdak · 12-29-2007, 04:25 AM

All I gotta say is that blows. That phone call I got on christmas morning asking for a favor...I definately didnt expect hearing you had a wreck. Like I told you on the phone, the first thing I though of was the new toyota commercials where the people are trying to total out there cars to get a new toyota, but in your case its an si haha

Not sure if he'll chime in or not, but the estimate was pretty high, Justin told me the adjuster said it could possibly be totaled. He wont find out til the 2nd though when the body shop opens back up.

autoxmnstr · 12-29-2007, 04:34 AM

glad your ok and didnt get hurt homie.....you gotta be easyy in the rain, 75mph is MOVIN for those conditions. But look on the bright side you could be gettin a new car now.

hondagoalie · 12-29-2007, 01:08 PM

Thank you everyone for your concerns.. yea seeing all those other cars as I was sliding across all those lanes facing the wrong way made me realize just how fortunate I was that I didnt hit one of them

Yea it happened right outside of a tunnel so tunnel authority was the first people to show up.. The guy said they watched me wreck on a security camera and by the time I hit the wall he was already on his way to me..

Yea.. I should have been paying attention more i guess

The only one I got was from an adjuster and he told me it was a little over $6k from what he can see.. It is at a body shop being torn down so they can see if I bent any rails or not..
