My wife was driving home from work Monday night and got rear ended, BAD! She stopped on I-70 for a backup (at one of the usual spots) and the person behind her didn't see her stopped and hit her, at what the other driver said was probably the posted speed (65mph !) Good news is that Shannon (wife) has no serious injuries, nor does anyone else involved. Bad news is that Shannon is really sore, bruised, and upset. Link to pics of car:

It's also sad because we both really loved that car and had planned to keep it for a long time. So far their insurance company (USAA) has talked the talk, we'll see if they walk the walk. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a long drawn out exercise in stupidity.

Seems to be the season for rear end collisions, eerily similar to AndyJ's situation.

Wow, that was a hard wreck, I'm glad to hear she's okay. Make sure to keep an eye on her for a while, neck, back, and other injuries can sometimes take a little while to really become obvious.

That's the best endorsement I've seen yet for a BMW 3-series!

YIKES!!!
That was a serious hit.

To reiterate what others have said, as long as your wife is ok, everything else can be replaced. I've had USAA forever and they are wonderful. I think you'll be just fine.

Good luck!
