My reaction time was not fast enough to swerve out of the way, but in some ways I'm glad I was slow to react. If I did I would have slammed on the car on my left and right. I ended up running over the ice and it took off my undercarriage completely clean. That's not the worse part, the impact caused my paint to crack and broke the lower grill. I'm glad the radiator is still in tact with little to no damage. Now, aside from the crazy Albuquerque drivers, I have to worry about ice falling off trucks.
Man that blows, I hope you get the car back in shape soon. That kind of crap can happen anywhere though.
