Event Recap:

Santa Ana, California
February 24th, 2007

[UPDATE!]

Thank you everyone for the nice comments, phone calls, & text messages.  Now that things have settled down a little I can finally talk about what happened that day.



The Accident:







Last Saturday after having lunch with some of my friends at Red Robin I was driving my friend home at about 3:30.  He lives in a residential neighborhood in Santa Ana and while I'm driving down a 2 lane residential street there is a highlander trailing behind me. [Scene 1]

His house is on the left side of the street so before I turn into his driveway I slow down and begin to make my left turn.  I guess while I was slowing down the driver behind me thought I was either stopping or pulling to the right (who knows?) and decides to try and pass me by moving into the oncoming traffic lane and pass me. [Scene 2]

Well of course while I'm making my left turn he speeds up and hits the front left corner of my car with the front right corner of his car [Scene 3].  The craziest thing was Emanuel (the passenger in my car) and I both had the same thought after the accident......."did that shit just happen?"


The Aftermath:

I'll fill everyone in later on what exactly happened but here are some pictures of the accident after it happened.







The funny thing is that since most of the damage was done to my bumper and my hood didn't bend to much on the ride home it didn't seem like anything was wrong w/ my car.....well except for the fact my bumper was in my back seat.

[Note:] If you look really closely in that second picture you can see the cholos contemplating rather to kick our asses for getting near their Celica. Hahahahah


Resolution:


I call the other guy's insurance company and file a claim.  They tell me to take my car in for an estimate and it ends up being $4,200 worth of damage!!!  The agent then goes on to tell me that the other guy said the accident wasn't his fault and that I hit him!

Lucky for me after the agent saw photos of both my car and his car it was clear cut it was his fault.  Not only did he hit me he was passing on my left side into oncoming traffic.  The agent lets me know that his insurance company will be accepting liability and that they will fix my car and pay for my rental while it's in the shop.  It should take at least 12 days to fix and until then here's my new ride.....



[UPDATE!]

Wow. Obligatory "are you okay", but I know you are since it's prolly a low impact accident. But that sucks for your car. If it's not your fault... think of it as a big payday! When Darrell got in his accident he got a new car!
