So I’m going to a friends for dinner and I’m on the 290. I get off at the main street exit to head down Kensington. As I come up to the light it turns green and there are two cars waiting at the light. They go through and now its my turn and I figure " hey the light is green this usually means its my turn to go" So I proceed through the intersection. I look to the right and I notice at the last second that some kid in his daddies mazda isn’t doing that stopping thing that I’ve heard so many good things about. So at whatever speed the kid plows into my saturn wagon and pretty much ruins my day. So here I am, car completely destoyed ( photos below ) and my back is way fucked up. Last night was the most painful night of sleep in my life. So does anyone on here have a dealer license and go to auctions who would be willing to let me tag along and get a car when I get the insurance all settled? Help a brother out guys. ![http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0348.jpg](http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0348.jpg) ![http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0349.jpg](http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0349.jpg) ![http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0350.jpg](http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0350.jpg) ![http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0353.jpg](http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0353.jpg) ![http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0355.jpg](http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj69/wallratuno/100_0355.jpg) ---

was this the accident at like 5pm last night? road was closed and everything if so, i had to go around to get home. There is an accident at that intersection nearly every day. Either #1 someone turns out of the 290 exit veer off for kensington where it clearly says no turns, or #2 someone coming from kensington tries to turn into main in front of someone going straight off the ramp. Don’t know why people think they have the right of way making a left in front of a car going straight at that particular intersection. ---

Thanks guys. My backs pretty roached ( to quote chino ) and that’s not a joke. I spent 3.5 hours taped to a backboard at ecmc getting poked prodded and x rayed and they didn’t find shit ( actually they did find shit. I got a greasy finger square in the shitter and I’m sure that doc hit a nugget or two ). We’ll see what happens I guess. And no I just can’t fucking win this past couple of months.
