Got into a bad accident last night, 10/12/2014, in Austin, TX when a guy took a left in front of me while we had a green light. After inspecting the intersection, there is no way for him to turn left without a green arrow. We had a solid green light for a good while. I came out of it bruised up and sore all throughout my body, and a couple scrapes, my buddy Lane who was in the passenger seat has a broken nose and a few bruises and cuts, but we're alive and doing ok. I am very thankful for our seat belts that saved us from anything worse! As you can see below, the car is pretty darn messed up, I have yet to find out what will happen with the insurance companies. We were on a long distance trip, as some of you may have read in a different post, from California to Louisiana to Arkansas. We're stopped dead in our tracks at the moment here in Texas, so I will need to figure out a way to transport the car to my parents' garage, since I hope to keep it and restore it. Just goes to show that no matter how safe you drive, there's still dangers out there, but I won't let that keep me from driving old cars.
