Sup, haven't been an active member lately, but just wanted to say that I was tbone and spun around 180. The side airbags came out and I'm certain that saved me from major left arm/shoulder/head injury. My right side of my shoulder is sore, but fully functional.

My first major accident in 15 years of driving.

Car is totaled. $19,300 worth of damages from a Lexus Collision shop.

Not sure what kind of car I am going to get next. Insurance pay out is on point.

BTW, this happened in Dallas 3am on a Wednesday morning.

Just awful. Hope no one was seriously hurt. Hopefully you get another Lexus and stay in the family.
