Haha, actually no I came flying around the onramp onto 680N, there was a cop in the middle of the freeway waving his hands, and I had open lanes because the onramp exited right infront of him. I just couldn't figure out why a cop was out of his car in the middle of the freeway

Hey Fujin. Glad you are okay. That really sucks about your S and all. I feel you though. A few months back I was on 101 North in San Mateo and this truck sent a piece of wood flying back that dented up the hood! Just part of the risk of driving I guess. Pain in the butt!

Just a recommendation; I've had body work done at B&S Hacienda Auto Body in Pleasanton. They have replaced the bumper, fix the dent and repainted my hood, & did my clear bra. They do all the body work for Mercedes-Benz of Pleasanton, so you know they are good. There are 3-4 different locations in the Tri-Valley but I go to the location on Old Santa Rita Rd. in Pleasanton. Check them out, they do good work. If you go ask for Ed & let them know I sent you, they definitely know my S.

So since I figure you all have experience with this. How do I get my AAA agent to cut me a check for the repairs rather than say they'll wait until im ready to get it done. Thoughts?
