Unhappy Another GS Gets Smashed Up...
This time it's my GS.







The short story is that traffic was stopped, I stopped... the car behind me stopped... but the car behind him decided it was a better idea to plow into all of us. I was tagged by a Jeep Cherokee that was tagged HARD by a Buick. The driver of the Buick swears up and down he wasn't speeding... but the physics say otherwise. Two cars were dead stopped, and now one of them has it's trunk in the back seat... Of course you weren't speeding.

looks like he came up on a blindspot seeing how the road looks hilly.

so doing speed limit of 60 and coming upon stop traffic isnt going to give the average person much time to stop.

anyways accident sucks, one of my car got rear ended twice before.

First, I sure hope you are not hurt...

I was hit directly by a 99 Suburban. Anyway, good luck with the car, it looks just like mine.

Mine was just totaled!

Sorry about the GS bro. At least you will most definitely get insurance $$$ from this. Maybe with some smart shopping you can even come out ahead.

BUT,

I feel like vomiting.

Cuz I have to drive tonight in HOLLYWOOD, on the strip................

WTF.

It might be the summer heat causing a lot more road rage lol. I know for sure that there are a lot more crazy drivers this time of the year in Texas.

Glad you and others are safe. Damage looks pretty bad, did it wrinkle the top of your car?

Glad you are alright. If they total it and have the space, buy it back and part it out and make some cash.
