Default We had a great run

Last night on my way to work, another vehicle made a U turn in the middle of the intersection and I did not had the time to stop. I slammed in to the suv (t bone) them their car doesn't look too bad. They're blaming me for beating the red light, but when I cross the pedestrian on my side it was still yellow. The paramedic took me to ER and had multiple x rays and they're all negative...we had a great run though...looks totaled to me...the bottom line is I'm okay, but a bit sore..

Damn, that really sucks.. Sorry for the loss of your IS-F. At least you're OK. That's my biggest fear nowadays: That my beloved IS-F is going to get wrecked by somebody else doing something stupid. Distracted drivers are the worst.. Apparently, everything else is more important than properly controlling that two ton vehicle

Glad your okay , get a lawyer and try to get footage from the intersection illegal U-Turn . If they are at fault get a 2014 ISF . I really detest L.A area drivers

Sorry this happened to you. I know all too well what it's like to lose your F in an accident. Hopefully you can get this settled, behind you and move on to the next chapter in your life. Rest up, you're going to be sore for awhile.

Sorry to hear about this bud.
I know it's getting scarier out there now with these absent-minded lemmings lately.
Hopefully the insurance company won't beat you up too badly. If this gets sent to the junker, hopefully you'll be able to part it out ( I need a ML Amp and some various plastic clips )

Sorry this happened to you. I came in to this thread thinking I was going to see a race. If the motor didn't get tapped and you have Geico. Chances are they can put it back on the road. The important part is that you're okay. Things always happen for a reason. Stay positive and be patient. Best Regards!

that's why i have a dashcam on my f.. everyone should seriously consider one.. unless you're like me who had a quick "stupid" race with a camaro on the freeway (freeway empty btw) it has a gps and it showed i hit 151 mph.... not a good evidence...
