Default my first accident

So I was going to a local coffee bean to meet up with a friend
right when I got there I was making a left & got hit by a Toyota Sequoia!
making a left without looking both ways!
I was in front of her & she looked & still pressed on the gas until she hit me
my driver door will not open more the 3 inches!
& nothing happened to her car...well nothing a buff wont fix
Oh & this is the first accident I have ever been in

That sucks man! What a bummer...at least it looks like it was only on the front left fender. I'm hoping/assuming she has insurance?

Aren't you in the process of finishing this car too??? That makes this even worse....sucks!!!

Oh man that is horrible.

Why would she even be driving on the street without insurance ???

Hope everything works out well for you.

I don't know I'm still in shock that she won't even press down on the brake like a normal person would do

^^ ha ha, every time!

Hey, OP... I'm not too saddened! You got hit by a full size SUV and thats all that happened? I'd be counting my blessings even at slow speed I'd think more damage would have been done... Good luck with the venture
