jimmaw Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) so yesterday around 5 pm i was involved in a 5 car pile up. the gentleman in front of me slammed on his brakes, and i did the same, but sadly i was to late hit him doing about 10-15. i don't know if it was outta shock or what but he then proceeds to hit his gas propelling him forward at full speed into the back of a brand new toyota mini van, destroying the back of it and slaming it into the cars in front of it. the van took the most damage, then the jeep(that i hit), and then my pathy. the two cars at the front of the incident had no visible damage, but had been hit, an older gentle man out of the minivan went to the hospital, and the man in the jeep went because he had a baby in the car, and they wanted to be sure it was okay.

BowTied Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Ouch, sorry to hear of the bad luck. Will you/your insurance be on the hook for the more than the Jeep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Damn!! Like every one else, I'm sorry that happened. At least everyone is alright, that is what matters. As for the truck, yeah, it shouldn't be too hard to fix. Too bad you aren't closer, I have a bumper I don't need... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmaw Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) what really sucks is that i had just changed the oil earlier that day, and bought plugs and wires, and was going to do a tune up for the new year. seems like every time i get around to doing something on the truck something else happens.
