  6. Ah... that sucks... looks like someone else ran into you?!?!

  7. Yeah it does look like someone hit me.
    Unfortunately my the actual story is more sad/scary.

    We were driving to some friends house to drop them off from a party at around 5am the night the snow storm started.
    I was on the interstate which is 65mph, but was going with the flow of traffic which was going 30-35mph because of the slippery roads.
    I lost traction a couple times but quickly regained control of the car.

    Then finally I lost all traction of all wheels on a slight bend in the intersection and spun out.
    I had the option to spin out in the middle of the interstate and get hit by 2 or 3 other cars or counter steer and go towards the shoulder.
    Made the smart decision to counter steer towards the shoulder to avoid an accident.
    But unfortunately the shoulder was more slippery than I anticipated and my back bumper tapped the wall at a 20mph spin.
    The crash was soo loud I thought my car was going to be totaled.

    We were just soo happy that everyone was ok and no one else was involved in the crash.
    And we were especially happy that we didn't get stranded on the BUSY & SLIPPERY interstate at 5am with risk of getting hit by another car.

    I haven't brought the car to the shop or anything yet, fearing what the bill will be and not sure if i want to claim it on insurance because they will probably jack up my rates.
    The damage coulda been worse but it just sucks to see my car like this.
