Well my Dad and I were on our way to our usual Sunday breakfast when a Nissan Stanza ran a stop sign. You can guess the rest Dodge hits Nissan - Nissan looks like it hit a brick wall. First let me say that all parties are OK, both of us and the young lady also. The truck will need a new bumper, front splash pan, right inner fender and outer fender. I did have to pry the inner and outer fender away from the the tire but was able to drive it home.
The Nissan was not so fortunate. My truck tore the bumper off and I kid you not the front end was totaled probably the whole car. The Nissan looked like it hit a brick wall. It sure gives you a graffic example of what happens when 6700 lbs of truck traveling a 30 to 35 mph can do to a 3500 lb car in an accident. If she had been 1 or 2 seconds into the intersection she would at least be in the hospital possibly the morgue.
She told the Police officer that responded that she ran the stop sign and, she is covered by insurance.
