Here is the picture gallery of my wreck from Feb 9th. The guard color F150 is what I was driving. It's still in the hands of the insurance and lawyers.

There are so many I didn't post them individually.

Dang....that was a stout collision. Glad you're ok.

Appears your truck handled it pretty well. Did they total it?

Wow, were brakes even involved in trying to stop the F-150 that hit you?

No, I was sitting stopped waiting on cars in front of me to turn left. I saw him coming in the mirror really fast and he didn't slow down one bit. I always leave a couple car length voids in front of me when I stop. He shoved me so far I thought I had hit the car in front of me.

That's being worked out still with insurance and lawyers.

It's totaled. That frame in the rear is toast. I wouldn't accept it if they tried to fix it.

Mr. Snrub

agreed... that'll never be right.

Bad news is the truck and the stress with everything but the good thing is the truck took a great deal of the impact and could not get to you upfront. Not sure if there are texting laws down where you live and its only speculation, but it sure looks like a distraction type of hit but I'm sure lawyers will be all over that kind of stuff or they should be on your behalf. Best of luck.

I'm so glad you weren't hurt and that you have insurance.

Glad you weren't hurt, but it still sucks. Having been in a head on in Dec 2015, here is my advice. Get a claim number from the other guys insurance and go get a medical evaluation. Some injuries don't show up right away. Use the claim number for all medical visits, prescriptions, over the counter meds, etc. Don't use your own insurance to pay for anything, getting reimbursed is a bitch. Good luck!
