Another Maxima is dead

I was involved in a major accident last night. My whole engine compartment was pushed back. The headlights both came out, my whole bumper and everything is smashed. A jeep came over in my lane and I hit it in the back....Right now as I write this, I have a fractured wrist. I have a maxima no more, my car is frigging gone. All because of punk kids and careless driving.

it's a real good thing you had your seatbelt on ... get those airbags checked by someone as to if they should've deployed and to see if there was a malfunction because you said you were hit in the front ... how fast/hard was the impact? ... *sniff sniff* i smell a lawsuit

I was going around 35 mph. Did I mention it was a jeep that I hit and it did a 360 twice in the middle of the road. This is some bull**** man. What's worst is that the cops see me sitting on the side of the road.....goes to the kids forst! Then comes to me and ask me of I was street racing because I had different wheels on my car!!!!!!???? I mean WTF!! Ask me if I'm hurt or some ****!!!!! A$$hole man!!!!

sorry about you car mate , reading what happen to you i just realized something ,i was involved in two accidents with my max and none of those times the airbags deployed, until now i was thinking of myself as lucky cause of that but after reading what happen to you it got me thinking ,anybody with the same problem?
hope that the insure pay the damage or good money to get you back in the road and get better soon mate .

i am sorry to hear about your accident. i am also sorry to hear that the cop was a DIK! unfortunately, your insurance rates will probably go up, because you rear-ended a car. wait, did you rear-end him, or did he clip your bumper while going into your lane

i know how you feel man.. when i had my accident, it was 3 cars, i hit a guy who ran a red light, and another guy hit him from the back.. the first thing that the third guy says to me when i get out of the car is, "i hope you have insurance, or this will be the worst day of your life"... i was almost crying already cuz of the damage to my car, and this guy definetely didnt help..

very traumatic experience for me, but it wasnt my fault, and the insurance fixed my car to (almost) the same condition.

Glad you are not RIP!

Thank God you are OK...xept the wrist.

And let me again stress these two points:

1. get that round mirror that goes in your left mirror.

2. whenever somebody speeds to do weird thing and you see him, lower gear/overdrive OFF and floor it all the way to avoid nose-diving to that suck@r's rear. And that's why you need fast/modded car.

I hate Jeeps. They should have died in WWII and in Vietnam. Decent people drive Humvees, not Jeeps. *tm*

naw he should be straight cuz they came into his lane without any blinking. as long as the kids don't lie(which the lil b!tches probably will) he should be able to prove he wasn't at fault. oh yeah sorry tp hear bout u and ya car. what u gonna do now???
