Wife on her way to work this morning arrived at the last light intersection before turning off to her office. Light is green she starts out into the intersection and BAM...motorcycle slams into the right side of our cherry '98 Chevy truck. Hit her hard enough to actuate the air bag and destroy right front passenger side. She starts vacation Monday and I'm retired so I guess we'll just sit and wait on the insurance companies. I've never seen one drive or look right after a T bone. Oh well, such is life. Damn, I loved that truck. powdr

*Thank God the man on the motorcycle only suffered a broken ankle.

Yep.

Driver's side on my brand new fhuqking crummy(had less than 100 miles on it). Gal ran a 4-way and I had no moves,but to cringe.

Adjuster said it could "be fixed" and I threw my keys in the center of his chest and told him to get fhuqked.

They cut me a check.

Never been - but daughter T-Boned a drunk, turning in front of her.
First vehicles behind her were a deputy sheriff and a city cop.
When I got the call, the deputy told me "Your car is really screwed up!"
I answered "As long as the people involved are OK, it doesn't matter, it's an insurance problem"
Took me a bit to convince the cops that I DIDN'T CARE about the vehicles - just the people. Autos can be repaired or replaced. I'm no good at fixing folks - and really sorry at replacing them!

Stinky, did your new crummy come with a booster seat so you could see over the steering wheel and extended pads on the pedals so you little stubby feetys could reach them? I bet it was real cute. Stank like hell probably.

Got t boned by a car load of messicans. Spun my 3500 crew cab 180°, knocked the rear axel out of it, Truck landed on top the trunk of a Toyota and one of my tool boxes broke free and landed on yet another car. Found my Stihl cut off saw half a block down the road. I didn't have a cut, bruise or even get sore the next day.

Yep, in college we were in Chicago working over winter break. I was riding shotgun going thru an intersection downtown by the Presidential Towers when I look to my right and read the word "CADILLAC" from about 2 feet away, then lights out. When I came to, that darkly pigmented individual was screaming his head off about his new Fleetwood and how we blew a red light. Unfortunately, he failed to see the cop that was following us. Of course, no insurance. I got a concussion out of the deal and my buddy's Olds was totaled.

Later that night my buddy wanted his Alpine stereo out of the car, so he hopped a cab to the south side where the car was in a yard on MLK Boulevard. The messican cab driver tells us to keep our heads down; "they might shoot at me, but they'll sure as hell shoot at you." Great. He gave us two minutes to get in and out with the stereo.

Good times.

I got T- Boned by a drunk doing 65 mph.
He hit right behind my driver's seat in the extra cab of my Chevy 4x4.
The impact flipped my truck onto it's roof, caving in all of the glass.
We were hung upside down by our seat belts.
We climbed out the shattered windows to safety.
Horrible experience.

Twice. Both times it was the other guy’s fault. Both times they totaled my truck. First truck was brand new... three weeks old. I hadn’t even made the firs payment yet.

In August of 2016 my wife and I were t-boned by a woman that ran a red light while texting. It blew all of the air bags and totaled our 2013 Avalanche with 32,000 miles on it. She hit about two feet in front of my drivers side door and the cops couldn't believe we walked away. Her engine was damn near out of the car pretty much held in by belts and hoses. Bonus to the whole thing is that she was uninsured.

Back in the mid 70's I acquired a 1960 International Scout 4x4 that was in pretty good shape but had some rust through spots and needed paint. I spent many hours fixing it up and painting it and shortly after I had it cherry some dumb ass t-boned the drivers side. I wasn't seriously hurt but boy was I pissed!
