That is nuts. I hope the girl gets ticketed at least for pulling over in the left lane. Glad you're ok. Time to upgrade

The lights were on, I saw them and I reacted in a safe manner, but then you also see that other people like to stay on peoples ass's.

TSX is rock solid no matter what year. It is by far the highest quality of any of the Acura Line. 03 TL is nice, but still suffers the usual Honda auto-trans problems. They are good about good willing trans failure under 105k, but it can still be a pricey ride to own.

I couldn't swerve around the cop because there was a car next to mine, then the Audi S4 behind me slammed into my ass and then I proceeded to screech into the rear of the police vehicle causing this damage:

The front and rear doors were also pushed back.
Nobody was injured except for a little soreness that's non-existent today.
I hope the insurance company totals the car because it looks like there's frame damage in the rear. The cop who I hit in the rear told me I wasn't at fault going by how he perceived it before we hit him.
That sucks! Not exactly the kind of 3 way one wants to get into, eh?
