Another 1 Down!
So I was on my way from Fairfield Inn in Millville to NJMP yesterday morning for day 2 of the NJBMWCCA road coarse event. On the road that the entrance to the track is I was stopped behind an older lady in a Saturn waiting for deer to cross the road when I look in my rear view and see a white Accord about to slam into me. I was hit so hard my car ended up 20' - 30' past the car I was behind I ended up out of the car on the street with no shoes on. Here is 2 pictures of my car. Sorry about the size of the pictures.

I was going to attend this event but I got too busy.

I'm glad you made it out ok. How'd you end up out of the car? What kind of injuries did you have?

This is the kind of stuff that scares me. Obviously a lot of other people don't care at all about their cars/lives and they make the rest of us all nervous and anxious all the time, lol...
Glad you're ok though...

Thanks guys I appreciate it. I am ok just a little banged up and so sore I can barely move. I guess from the force of the impact my shoes came off of my feet. And I dove out of the car while it still moving from the force of the impact. All the powder and smoke and smell from the airbags going off it just smells like fire. Also I had friend who hit a tree and his truck caught fire and killed him inside so. I really hope they total it no way I want it fixed.

Oh man! That sucks! Make sure to get yourself checked out. Hope you get your car replaced soon.
Jeez, what the heck! No time to slow down? Txting??? I'd be mad as hell! The only plus is that you are okay.

did this happen after a curve? no time to react? I always hit the hazard lights as a first if I know I have to come to a full stop or have to slow down due to some emergency ahead... if I can I pull over out off the line of fire so to speak ... was there no chance for you to do the same or did it all happened too fast? Sharing this with others here will help perhaps someone ...
