Major ouch! At least it looks like the cabin is intact, meaning no one got hurt. It does look like the air bag deployed though. That's why they designed those crumple zones in thought. This type of wreck really shows that the bumper cover really is just a cover. The real thing is behind it. That repair bill is going to run some major $$$$ looking at the wheel, headlight, hood, front quarter panel, bumper cover, air bag, etc.

yeah, that's mine. I thought I put down what happened.

I was coming down the street and some car pulled out of side street. I swerved to avoid, lost control and hit mr. telephone pole. I'm ok, but I think she's done.

sad days.

My condolences on the car, but, most importantly, you're alright.

That really blows -- did the other car at least stop? Maybe you could go under their insurance policy.

I think you may be the first person in the forum who had the airbag deploy -- what was that like?
