Not me personally, the car I mean...

I'm ok, didn't die or anything, scared the hell outta me though.

I was headed westbound, turning south into a driveway, BAM clobbers me from the driver side.

to the lady in the other car..... Trying to pass a car with the left turn signal on the left isnt a very smart thing to do.

Basically she tried to make it sound like it was all my fault for going too slow, but the officer cited her for unsafe passing, so I win. Besides, who turns into a gravel driveway at 45mph (her speed) anyway?

Insurance is still investigating...
She will probably be found at fault. Some circumstances were that the sun was in our eyes as we were driving into the sunset, but really, thats even more of a reason to not try and haul ass around me at 45 mph.

Basically, the wheel chassis thingie is completely seperate from the car now, tow truck guy jacked up my car to get a good look at it.. the wheel stayed on the ground the whole time. Pretty funny.

Oh well, her insurance will probably wind up paying for the whole thing. My insurance company was rad. The tow truck guy was retarded. took him 2 hours to get it on the truck.

Anyways, I'm a bit wore out, a bit upset, and clueless as to what to do. This is my 1st wreck. I had it towed to a local dealership last night, called today to find out that they dont do body work, so they are gonna have it towed to a body shop (no doubt they will bill it to me) which sucks since I just payed for towing (78$) last night.

so any advice?
