Default Better days must be ahead? right? Rearended again..

well i know better days are coming....i'm driveing to mall yesterday to take some pics with my daughter and santa and i get rearended again only this time much harder than the last..had to take my wife and baby to the hospital, my baby is fine and wife suffered a strained neck. i'm ok. it was one of those feels harder than the damage shows accidents. 3 cars total involved. well my rear bumper will need to b redone, no breaks in the bumper just marks and painted ripped off, the rear trunk is going to need to be fixed aswell. the Tails lights made it untouched........no pics yet. my wife should be fine and my daughter is fine and i'm ok. the car should be fixable. it just sucks to see your baby looking like that...the guy who hit us is going to have a large bill on his hands , trust me..its just sucks cus this kinda puts my plans in delay again...

A,

Sorry to hear about the incident - glad everybody is ok, though. Doesn't it just suck when the accident is not your fault and there's nothing you can do to avoid it? Might want to check out Fantastic Finishes for the body/repair work. Hope everything turns out good for your family, you and blue.

That sucks. Hope that your wife and daughter are ok. Cars can be repaired, sometimes people can't. Good luck getting the car back together.

this really sux adrian, but at least your wife and baby (congrats again btw) didn't get hurt, that's always the most important.

about the damage, it doesn't look too bad, but if you guys felt it hard, you need to look deeper. seems like the bumper was complete compress and that's how the trunk got damaged. i wonder if the crush bar inside is damaged. the foam is gone for sure. and maybe you wanna check the frame just in case. the good thing is the guy rearended you straight on, if it's on one side, then it could be worse...

and how could it involve 3 cars?

again, sorry man
