Lucky guy....Accident with my G4
Last night as I on my way to work, I was changing lanes to my left. I was going with the flow of traffic, driving alert, always checking mirrors (and my blind spot mirrors). I saw nothing and proceeded to change. The particular area I was in is a few areas merging into a smaller tunnel, plus it was rush hour, and it's just a crazy area to drive anyhow. I heard metal on metal, saw my driver mirror fold in and immediately went back into my lane. I made my way to the side of the road and got out, not knowing what to expect for damage. I would guesstimate our speeds were anywhere from 35-45, so let's say 40?. She was in an older Ford Edge. I wound up with some scrapes on my drivers door and fender, where they both meet, and a dent (that I'll bet money will pop out, I just haven't tried) by the side blinker. I think there were some scuffs on my mirror too. In a quick buff out with my sleeve, a lot of the marking came off. Definite scrapes on the paint, but nothing horrible. Nothing actually broke, car drives like normal and most importantly no injuries-hence the lucky guy in the title. This could have been so much worse, I see multiple accidents daily on my commute that are. Her Edge had some scuffs to the front bumper and fender. I tried to get the best pics I could, but I'd just washed my car and it's shiny!!
