Wow. So that's the accident I heard from my balcony while BBQ'íng. Glad to see you are safe. Hey at least the ICBC centre is close by there.

wow, definitely a good thing that there were no cars driving through that intersection.

haha holy shit he must have been going fast to launch you that far into the middle of the intersection. glad to see your fine though.

Holy shit....are you hurt? Your Volvo did a good job absorbing a lot of the impact energy. Hope you're ok...it'll hurt after the initial shock wears off. :(

i have headaches and my back is sore now, i think over the next few days it'll be worse. Adding insult to injury I got a little blue toyota yaris as a rental. 105hp of plastic. I'm in plastic hell.

Thread I jacked it from states 14 rotations..

That USED to be a 10second 740.

What year was it? It could very well have been a ford:p

Yeah I'm glad it didn't come to that for me. My S40 was a 2002 and I'm pretty sure it shares the same platform as the focus and mazda 3

GET A LAWYER

HEY MATSUDA I THINK YOU SHOULD GET A LAWYER

Ya, t'is a ford unfortunately. Still a decent car though, lots of potential with those engines. Even if it's a Ford, sorry to see it off the road.

Hey Matsuda,

if you haven't seen icbc yet, you should go see them, see your doctor, etc. ICBC will give you 12 treatments of your doctor or your choice for 8 weeks starting on the day of your accident. ICBC will subsidize a portion of the treatments and you will be left to pay the remaining amount. If you get a lawyer, they might help you pay for your treatments initially so you won't have to pay up front. Hope you feel better soon.

lawyer get one asap if you havent already. but damn so luck no car was going into the intersection or else it wouldve been like a scene from final destination.

wow civic are build to last

yeah I talked to a lawyer today already, thanks for your advice guys. I've already went to the doctor, talked to the lawyer, made an ICBC claim, and arranged the car to be towed to a garage to get it checked out. I also saved some ads showing how much it would be to replace my car with a similar year model so I think all I can do is wait right now till an adjuster calls me.

Crazy stuff! Glad that hear that you're allright! Looks like the Volvo did its job nicely!

not surprised with the minimal damage on the accord

my cousin has the same car and she hit a couch on the freeway in cali @ 80mph...minor damage on the front but the couch was fukn crushed to nothing

this all happened when a truck in front of us dropped the couch in a really dark freeway with no lights around 10pm, it was a black leather couch too which made it harder to see... fkin douche didnt even stop

lol you hit a couch on the freeway :haha:

I'm sorry but it's just... so funny

Honestly, how can he not have paid attention in that situation? He has to turn left or right, so he has to stop or slow down anyways.

dL

ICBC called me today to say my car is being written off. Goodbye Volvo =(

tough break...how much you getting back?

Definitely lucky nobody was going through the intersection... hope everything works out through iCBC!

ugh I'm afraid ICBC will give me shit for it but won't know until later this week

lol yeh u'd think so ...
when i first saw it i thought it was actually a big black bear lol
