Car Crash!

[Alan Sex]

Fuck me, that was the worst one I have ever been in. Spent most of last night at the hospital where they were looking after my wife who is 39 weeks pregnant. She's ok - bad back and neck, but baby is ok as well. Should be good to have the birth within the week or so but she's worried she might have to go the C-Section route because of her back. My 10yr old daughter was in the back seat and came out of it with only head and neck pain as well.

 

The doctor/nurses convinced me to check myself in as well - luckily just a soft tissue whiplash type neck injury.

 

We were stopped about 2.5 metres behind another vehicle that had stopped behind a bus that was pulled up blocking a lane on an 80kmh road (beside a bus pull-in he didn't use - don't you worry, I'll be after him to find out what the hell he was doing...). Stopped there for 3 to 5 seconds before suddenly we were crashed into from behind - apparently at 70-80kmh. Lady wasn't paying attention, didn't even brake. Hit us so hard we were pushed all the way into the car in front.

 

Took a few snaps of my car today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Compare these two images - look at the gas door to the back!

 

 

 

Thank fuck we were all wearing seatbelts and thank fuck for rear crumple zones and stuff!

[JohnnyH]

Fuck me lad, you were a lucky boy you get out of that one. Hope all is ok with the Mrs and there's no difficulties with the birth.

[Alan Sex]

By the way, I'm assuming the car is a write off! Anyone know what happens when the insurance writes a car off? Can I expect to replace everything, including the extended warranty and all the paint/underbody protection etc.

 

Sure as hell hope I'm not going to end up out of pocket on this.

 

I know that is secondary to walking away from the crash - but it's thousands of dollars I don't need to lose right now!

[melons]

Glad your all safe and well

 

impressive car, even after a rear ender...

[Paulie Dangerously]

Fuck me the near demise of Alan Sex! Glad you're ok la

[Teflon Don]

Glad everyone's ok and not too badly hurt - looks like it could have been much worse. Hope the wife isn't too shaken up and all goes well with the impendng birth.

[She Knows It]

What a dozy bitch. Good news you're all okay.

[Joe Le Taxi]

Women drivers....

Fill your boots on this, the other driver is totally responsible given your evidence. Hire a car, milk the injuries, loss of income and on going trauma etc.

Lets hope she was fully insured, you'll be able to retire on this one if you manage it right.

[Xherdan]

Glad to hear everyone is ok mate.

[BRANDS]

you will likley be paid the pre accident value at todays prices - if the car is on finance you may have taken gap insurance which may cover any shortfall in value-although I dont know how policies operate were you are so dont hold me to anything.

 

glad your ok & that though!

I once received medical evidence from a woman who said as a result of the accident she was unable to perform oral sex three times a week to her hubby as she did before the accident as it exacberated her neck injury!

 

If I was the hubby I would have demanded the compo myself - loss of use and all that!

[Karl_b]

Fucking hell, glad you're all ok Mr Sex.

[Steve Holt]

Bloody hell. Glad all is well with the living ones Alan. Poor fucker of a car though. How did the other woman come out of it?

 

Also, where do you live?

[bri]

nasty smash that, good news your ok.

 

Check the level of your insurance with the co. See if they provide a complimentary vehicle. If not question if as part of your claim against her insurance you can claim the cost of a hire car. Then whack in the hospital reports of injuries to whoever was in the car. You should get a decent payout.

[jacco maccaco]

Thank fuck for modern Cars.

Hope all is well.

Watch out for delayed shock.

[Alan Sex]

Bloody hell. Glad all is well with the living ones Alan. Poor fucker of a car though. How did the other woman come out of it?

 

Also, where do you live?

 

Cheers all.

 

The other lady's vehicle (Hyundai Tucson) was pretty destroyed in the front end. She was ok - as were her two kids. From what I overheard she looked back to say something to the kids and didn't see me until the last second, hence no braking.

 

I live in Calgary, Canada.

[Steve Holt]

I always assumed you were English.

 

Silly lady indeed. Maybe she'll keep her eyes on the road next time and just speak more loudly.

Thanks, I have rental coverage through insurance so should be able to pick up a runabout in the next day or so. I've never had an injury accident so not sure if the insurance company speaks up or if I have to pursue that separately?

Where'd you finish up once the car stopped?

Fucking outer space for an hour or so!

[Edward.]

Glad you are okay you perv. Take some time off, surf the Net and post your findings on here.

[kop]

Holy shit some crash that. Glad you and your family are ok. You're lucky to get out of it at all getting hit at that speed.

3 times a year more like!!!!!!!!!!! if he was lucky

i'd get all the hospital reports and present them to your insurance company. Whiplash, tissue damage, stress etc should add up to a decent sum.
