Are you o.k?

Have you gotten an estimate on the damages? It doesn't look too bad; it's mostly the bumper and fenders, but you have to make sure that the body integrity is still intact.

Keep us informed...

well... this girl made a left while being "distracted" as i was going straight according to the police report. I was so furious i didnt speak to her i jus started flippin out... in general.

Driver and Passenger side air bags were deployed... never been in an accident where air bags deployed... nastiest taste and smell ever

According to the Body Shop it should take about two weeks to fix... no estimate as of yet

and im OK, air bag burn, and a son pain in my shoulder...
