Default Well I'll be out of commission for a while

Getting on I-5 north from downtown seattle, I spun out and hit the front and rear of my car.

Fortunately, from what I can tell, only the bumper and plastic fender lining need to be replaced, and one of the muffler guards.

So yeah, everyone be careful out there, drive slow when the weather is crappy
I just heard my dad was in a pretty bad accident as well, some lady sideswiped him and took out our suburban. Be safe guys..

I'll post pics later..

Sorry to hear the bad news The S2K was definitely not ment for the wrath of winter. Any accident you can walk away from is a good one! Hope your ride makes a full recovery

Doh! Glad you're OK. Hopefully you're car will be good as new soon.

I'm getting some paint work done at BAR due to an unidentified flying chunk of metal off of a pickup.

Good luck,

Ted

tell ya the truth, i dont really remember at what point i hit the brakes, felt like it was over before it started.

probably early on, which was my fault, but i was bound to hit a wall because the road was very thin where I hit.. Im glad i just took out one panel instead of multiple.
