So last night while heading home from my uncle's house my sister and my 2 month old niece were hit by a drunk driver. My precious Lexus LS 10 is completely totaled, but we are pretty ok aside from some bumps and bruises.
The deal is, my uncles and I were watching the Boise State football game while my sister and her 2 month old came along for the ride and to hang out with the family. After the game I let my sister drive because I had a few beers and we were going to swing by my mother's work to pick her up.
Heading east there was a 4 way intersection we had the green . A driver in a black Honda Civic coming from the north, broke the light while speeding trying to turn left to head east. He impacted the car on the front drivers side hitting us off the road.
Luckily it was a Lexus. The front is completely torn off, but the cabin is just fine, all the airbags deployed. Also, cops were in the Mcdonalds parking lot across the street and were there before I could even get my doors open. The cops and people on the scene were truly shocked we walked out fine. So I guess I'm gonna stick with Lexus.
Spent the night in the ER, I pretty much hurt all over. The cops could not arrest the guy because though he admits to drinking and they could smell alcohol on him, he was not over the legal limit.
So aside from a headache, chest pain and a tweaked left knee (to match my right reconstructed one) I've lost my damn car!
