I was on my way to a shop to have my Steeda springs installed and on the way I got hit. Traffic cam video shows the other driver ran a red as I was clearing the intersection making my left hand turn.

:cry:
The upside is that no one was hurt and the damage could have been way worse. But still majorly sucks no matter what.

each time I think about it I get sad, and with how things are right now who knows when the shops will be able to get the parts that will be needed too. I hate the fact that I have it taped so that things don't flap around when I drive, ugh.

Yeah, the police report states the speed limit being 40 and that is what she was doing at the time, so I don't think she was even trying to slow down for the light.

Sorry to hear/see this. Its unfortunate but at least nobody was hurt! Looks like the damage will be manageable as.its rear end so no mechanical engine concerns.

It's a very sad tail. Hopefully you won't be the butt of too many jokes. I have a haunch you'll get it fixed before you go into arrears.

Glad you're okay after that. This said you did end up with a more technically sophisticated and a bit hotter machine. If these work as designed (SYNC system often does not :unsure:) these are technical marvels.
