JohnnyD 0 #1 May 17, 2005 Two years and four months ago I moved to Colorado. I have since held the belief that the worst drivers on earth all live here. One of them finally hit me. An idiot in the typical Colorado vehicle (F-350 crew cab long bed = about as long as two parking spaces) was making a left and managed to get half of his land barge in the turn lane, leaving the other half to block traffic. I stopped but the 17 year old kid coming up behind me wasn't even looking until after he hit me. Needless to say he was a bit shaken up. I got out and walked toward his vehicle, a Chevy Malibu. His light, hood, grill, front fender, and left front quarter panel were all damaged. I was expecting something similar on my car, a Toyota Camry. I was very pleased to see that all I will need is a new rear fender. No damage to the trunk, lights, or rear quarter panels. No injuries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
