Ouch!!!!!
 

Half a block from the house this evening, I'm sitting STOPPED with my signal on to make a turn and WHAMMO, a guy in a Econoline Van barrels me into my rearend going about 30MPH. Luckily I am fine (with only a sore neck). But I believe my beloved Durango is totalled...as I believe the frame may be bent. My vehicle is about a foot and a half higher in the a$$ end than it was before today. Notice the other guys license plate still embedded in my tailpipe. Needless to say he was charged for following too closely and the vehicle can be replaced.

Dom, Keith & Ryan...check out my license plate!!

I think he was aiming for the Mets Tag. Just glad you are alright brother!!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Well $hit, that sucks Mac. I hope you saved your license plate :r Glad to hear your okay though.

I would go to a doctor anyways, make sure your neck won't bother you years down the road.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

GD Mac, glad you are all right. Hopefully it knocked the cold out of you.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you are ok! Another reason to avoid those damn little Smart Car types of vehicles.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Holy crap brother, glad everyone walked away, the rest is just stuff that can be replaced

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you are ok, tomorrow will probably hurt a little more than right now.

With the rising gas prices hey may have done you a favor.

As someone 2 weeks out from my second cervical diskectomy, don't blow off any lingering pain as just whiplash - get it checked out.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Ouch glad your ok!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

At least your OK!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

I thought this was a bombing thread, up until you got rear ended, but even then I wasn't sure. Glad you are ok, brother.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

At least you are OK Mac...but wait til tomorrow to see how you really feel, sometimes the after effect doesn't kickin til the next day!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

:tpd:

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Damn that sucks. Glad your Ok Mac.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Scary pictures, glad you hear you're all right!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Whew...glad you're ok brother.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Damn! Glad you're ok.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you werent hurt Mac.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

That sucks, glad to hear your ok. By the way, I love the liscence plate.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

The only tragedy here is the plate survived...glad to hear your ok...

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

I am glad you are okay! Go see a Doctor not Chiropractor, and get your back checked out.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad your ok Mac. Was it a Yankees fan that hit you?

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

:r:r

Glad you are ok!!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Thank God you're okay, buddy. :tu
Like the brothers said, go get checked out. The whole deal, stays, MRI, the works. It's not being a wussy, it's being smart. His insurance will take care of it, I'd certainly think.
Take it easy tomorrow, too. It sometimes takes a day or two for the thumping to start hurting.
Prayers for ya, brother!!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Just glad you seem to be OK, Mac!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Thanks for all the well wishes fellas...means a lot!! :D :D

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you are ok Mac :tu
Did you really get hit, or did the latest Met loss send you on a rampage? :D

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

glad you are alright
there are some scary drivers out there

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Wow, Mac!!! Glad you were not seriously injured! You are correct things can be replaced, you Sir can not!!

On a sidenote, that guy had to be a complete idiot to not have seen your vehicle. People....

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

He saw the Mets plate and got angry. He did it on purpose. :p

Glad to hear you're OK (physically, as we all know you're not right mentally), but DEFINITELY go in and get checked out. tell the doc about the accident, and they should know what to look for. Better safe than sorry. You don't want something showing up down the line because of this and then you are SOL with payments because of it.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

damn man, that sux! glad your okay tho!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Sorry to hear about the misfortune... but really glad you are alright!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you are OK Mac. Love the Plate!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

As everyone else has said, and I posted in the banter thread:

GO TO A DOCTOR!

Sorry about the truck, brother. :(

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

That sucks. Glad you are OK though. Just think you might get to go car shopping!! :)

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Will pray for speedy healing to your sore neck. Thank goodness nobody was seriously hurt.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Damn Mac! Glad to hear yer OK Bro, now let me repeat as others have said "Go to the Doc's and get checked out! "

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Well, we know it wasn't Jorge Posada who rear ended him, he can't hit anything this year... :r

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

That sucks.... ;s If everyone is O.k. then everything else can be fixed

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you are ok Mac. Vehicles can be replaced. You my friend are one of a kind.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you are okay.

Put a doily on it. Good as new!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad you are OK Mac! The car can be replaced you can't!

Listen to the guys and go get checked out!!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Update: My Durango is officially totalled. $ 5,000 damage and the frame is bent, which adds another $ 3500 to the total. :td I get a check for $ 6200 and a new car payment. :td Blows big time!!!!

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Glad your Ok.

I would aim for the METS Plate as well :rolleyes:

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

Is that your insurance settlement? If that's the case, the other guys insurance should pick up the balance, although you may need (and I'd recommend) to hire an attorney. I just wouldn't be in a hurry to settle with them until you know the extent of your injuries and any future long term care you may need. :2

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

I agree with Tim. Seems like a $hitty deal for someone totalling your car.

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

must have been a Yankees fan. Glad you are ok Mac, physically I mean, mentally you're probably as unstable after the accident as before ;)

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

OUCH!!! Glad to hear that you are ok. Get that neck checked out though....

Re: Ouch!!!!!
 

I agree with Tim, too.
If you go to the hospital, and your neck hurts, things seem to turn out a LOT more favorably. A lawyer can't hurt a bit.
I never used to believe in the whole lawyer horsesh1t world, but it's honestly the only way to get insurance companies to play fair. It's a disgusting development, but it's just the way things are.
