Default Another 4th gen VTEC DEAD

Well, a month ago Mike95lude had his car totalled and yesterday my car got hit as well. I was driving on a four lane highway, slowly passing a huge motorhome when he decided he needed to change lanes. He then proceeded to change lanes right into me. It spun my car around and dragged me for like 100 feet. It was scary and sucked. The whole drivers side of my car is fucked up. People need to learn how to drive!!!!!!!!

Yeah, hopefully yours isn't totalled. THAT would really suck. It sucks that bad drivers have to mess up our lives.

Mike - who is still trying to find the right Lude.

Sorry to hear bout the car. I just had my last car totaled about 2 weeks back. 1 week after I took my first trophy (1st Place Domestic Mild). Then I drove my boys 4th Gen. Prelude with H23 and fell in love. And here I am.

I had a similar incident way back. but I swerved to avoid and slammed into the wall. Even though the guy contacted me first (before I hit the wall) he got away with. Insurance company found him with no fault.

...a week later a contractor was installing a few new windows for him.

Yeha, as it turns out, I might need physical therapy for my back... That should be a couple grand right there. Oh and I just found out that my car has 7k worth of damage. They are gonna go ahead and try and fix it. The body shop guy said that there is no frame or suspension damage. Just body stuff. I am happy! Its gonna be fixed and I am gonna come outta this with a lot cash!

Preludes are dropping like flies. Yesterday, there was an accident on I-95 south through norwalk. One lane was closed. As I was passing the totaled car, it hit me that it was a 2001 electron blue base model. Weird. I hope I'm not next

I just hope the injuries don't catch up with you way down the line. I heard that happens. Good luck with everything though.
