Woke this morning with a decision to either drive the "Surfer" or take "The Ghost"(89 grand marquis) into my part time job this morning. Something was nagging at me to take The Ghost. So i did. Being as tho i had to finish a coolant flush on it at work, it was a good idea. 3Hours later, time to head to the fulltime job. 30 seconds from pulling in to work, a fool in a Accord bears to the right then makes a U turn right in front of me without looking. Hit him flush on the drivers side . Everyones ok but i was thinking about that nagging feeling earlier about which car to take. The LS comes with its own guardian angel!

Glad to hear everyone is OK. I hope the police report accurately assigns fault and you can avoid a civil suit if you're not at fault.

Thanks fellas for the concern. The Ghost is fine. Just the plastic front clip needs to be replaced. A fairly easy DIY job but if the insurance will handle it, so be it. The fault is all his cause he u turned in front of me a took away my right of way. Its the only way i could hit him on the drivers door. LS430inDE i will definately tell you after i hit it! LOL
