Well we've gone weeks without snow here and as always people forget how to drive when the snow flys. We got some snow overnight and I was on the losing end of a bad driver this morning on my way to work. A girl in an old square body Ford Taurus lost it entering the highway and skidded across both lanes of traffic into the left lane where I had moved over to allow traffic to merge. I saw it coming but there was nothing much I could do, it was slick as snot so I knew slamming on my brakes would just put me in a spin so I just braced and held the wheel straight. Her car took the impact in the left rear quarter and trunk area and by the pics you can see where I took it. In this case mass won, my near 6000 pounds sent her car for a complete spin into the ditch and my truck stuck to the road and I rolled to a stop out of the way of traffic. Neither of us are hurt but I bet she will be sore tomorrow, she went for a hell of a ride into that ditch. I imagine she got a ticket, cop told me it was clear it was her fault and she admitted to it. Im glad no one was hurt and Im also glad I was able to drive away from it, her car left on a flatbed.

Glad you're okay! Doesnt look like it did any damage to the metal so hopefully it's not too hard to replace the front

Yeah it's not going to be too bad to fix. I actually got a new headlight in it today so it's at least road legal again.
