I was on the I-40 and this Civic Hybrid was in front of me. He was passing a semi truck on his right when the semi decided to get into our lane when the Civic was RIGHT NEXT TO HIM! So the Civic had to swerve to the shoulder and slam his brakes. Needless to say I barely had time to get on my brakes and swerve to my right to avoid him. I came up on his pass side and heard this loud *** crunching sound and a huge cloud of tire smoke from everyone. NOOOOO!!!! We pull off the road and I jump out to make sure they were cool, and inspected my car. SLIGHT scrape on my driver side fender and little spot on my mirror. He had a 8" long scrape from my mirror and another 12" scrape on his lower pass quarter panel from my fender. The crunching sound, im going to say, was from my mirror folding in and out (hate that sound). Got real lucky.

Cliffs: Semi cut a Civic off, I slightly side swiped the Civic, everybody is cool.

Thats what I'm worried about. No one got a ticket...but no body got the plate # on the semi either. He just kept going. I do have some paperwork from the DPS officer, should I call my insurance company and let them know whats up, or just let it go? I'm worried about the other guy calling his insurance to get his **** fixed and then leading to me.

Yea I had a problem with that same plug a year ago. The wires were so old, that they just kept breaking in different spots. Basically, just cut the loom back and fine where it's broken at and put some new wire in there to the plug...or buy a new engine harness like I did.
