I think I just threw up; I remember seeing the feature on that car and could not beleive how nice it was. I am real sorry to hear about the car but, it could have always been worse.

Thanks for posting guys. You all got a double dose of nausea for Monday morning. If the car is totaled, I don’t have an interest in the salvage, if not I’ll probably take the money and sell the car as is. I would hope that it will be repaired and put on the road again, I just don’t have an interest in doing that.

That's my son filling in the information for the report. He feels horrible even though he wasn't at fault.

What a bummer. If they salvage the car it would even be more of a bummer. It looks bad, but not terrible.

The Austin police don't ticket after an accident, I asked them to do it, but they refused.

WTF? So do they ticket before an accident, then?

I would call the Prosecutor's Office and bring it up with them. Based upon the interviews of the victim (your son) the witnesses, and the other driver, it's an obvious failure to yield right of way violation.

Based on the value of this car and the damage done to it, this is quite a serious situation and it will save a lot of hassles in the insurance debate to follow.

I would also go around to all the businesses there immediately and see if they have any surviellance video of that intersection. Given the locality I can bet the accident was caught on someone's outside surveillance camera. If there is a bank at that corner you can bet there's a camera, even an inside camera can catch the street action through the window. But do this fast as sometimes they recycle their tapes and don't save them.
