One less Evo around

It pains me to report there is one less Evo around. A guy in a Chevy pickup ran a red (at a high rate of speed) on me as I was turning left and did some serious damage. Thankfully, everyone involved walked away.

Sorry to here about your loss. They should pull his license. I had something similiar happen a while back. In my case it was a 80+ year old lady that ran the red. Then had the never to ask what happened I damn near smacked the densures out of her mouth. At least your ok that is the most important thing.

I'm amazed at how well your EVO protected you from the pickup. Getting hit like that could have turned out really bad. These cars really are amazing.

Oh, and it looks like the wing once again survived. EVO wings are indestructible!

I'm glad everyone is ok, but i don't think i would be standing there thinking that. If someone totalled mine i know for a fact that i would probably be going to jail.
