Damn, that went fast.

Lucked out, a middle-aged gent/enthusiast who lives near me happened to take a gander on Craigslist on Friday and this caught his eye. He was looking for a new daily driver and really appreciated the mods (suspension, muffler) and extra wheels.

What is next?

a van was coming into her lane from a side street and it stopped halfway through the intersection she avoided it and the traffic was stopped. She hit the car in front of her then the acadia plowed into the back of her

She didn't expect what would happen on the other side. Worst thing is the guy in the van hit the car behind him saw the accident and drove off.

Dash cam?

No unfortunately not.

[Jackal]

Terrible drivers causing accidents. Poor Black Betty. Glad the gf is fine.

[jay93]

Damn, it's a shame when a crash happens. I know she's okay. But hopefully everything dealing with the crash goes smoothly as well

Shit. Make sure she's OK tomorrow as well. Lots of people don't feel anything wrong right away and it would be best to see a doctor in the case that she does later on.

[Cjcoolen]

I hope she's okay after tonight dude. I hope that van driver feels the guilt of what was done today.

[jaimie08mazda3]

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I hope they find the guy in the van. If he hadn't pulled out none of this would have happened. Not only this but she is also 8 weeks pregnant so it mAkes it that much more stressful and panicking.

[jaimie08mazda3]

So far though she's been ok. A little stiff and sore but that's all. I'm thankful it wasn't worse given what the car looked like when I got there.

^I second this statement.

Sucks about the car but like many others have mentioned a blessing she wasn't hurt in any serious way.

Hope it all works out.

[jaimie08mazda3]

We are going in tomorrow for the ultrasound anyway so we will make sure she is ok.

[Slade]

Frig man sorry to see what happened, hope everything is fine with her and the baby.

Ive ran a dash cam for the last 3 years, just because of people like that van driver, not many people have a decent conscious these days.

[jaimie08mazda3]

Good news is the ultra sound went well and we saw the heart beat so as far as we know everything is good on that front !

Betty is done. Insurance will write it off and it's off to find a new vehicle. I'll miss her though as if it weren't for the car I wouldn't have met Amber and my life wouldn't have gone the way it did. RIP black Betty.

[ShibbyDibbyDoo]

That's tough but glad to hear everyone is ok. So Amber what are you getting next, another 3?

[Aitch]

Glad everyone is OK, that's by far the most important part.

[jaimie08mazda3]

Maybe a hatch but who knows. Either way we have to find something soon and figure out what insurance will do with it. Id like to get my winters and the deck off of it. But have to wait and see what the adjuster says.

Glad everyone is OK, that's by far the most important part.

This is very true. I was panicked more then I have in my entire life. The Mazda held up really well as well and she has been stiff but nothing major so it's a really good thing.

[loki]

At least one of you can get stiff, even if by accident
