Default My civic

is totalled.


I was rear ended 2 nights ago at 50 mph by some a-hole. I was at a dead stop at a red light. I'm OK, just very severe whiplash (all the muscles torn in my neck), and johnathan had some neck injuries, whiplash also.

The car on the other hand, with no visible damage, underneath, the frame is crumpled, the back windshield shifted about 1/4 inch, the back passenger quarter panel shifted into the door, the trunk is creased where the gas tank is.

I didn't really want to sell her , but i had to, and now this, it's a horrible way for her to have to be gone :wtc: Poor sexygreen

ummm, not to sound like a dick, but how the hell did you survive a 50 mph impact without your neck snapping?

and not to sound like a total bitch, but how is it possible that all the muscles in your neck are torn, yet you're able to be at home and hold your head up?

thats what head rests are for - accidents like this.

Yeah if they were all torn you'd be a little screwed right now. Probably just sore.

Sorry about your loss, but look onto it as time to move onto bigger and better things. Like a newer Civic. :exnbp:

Hope the neck feels better. :af:

I can't hold my neck up without support. The "smaller" muscles are "torn", and the larger muscles are bruised. I have a neckbrace I have to wear for 6 weeks.

Carter, SEATBELT! The headrest caught my head when it snapped back, and the seatbelt stopped me from going through the windshield.


The most important thing is, I'm OK I'm going to bed, really tired
