Default Bad day today :-( (BWW)

I'm generally ok, but the S4 didn't fare so well. Long story short, I was going a reasonable speed under the speed limit, Subaru Legacy driver on a cross street missed his stop sign and slid into my path. I did not have enough traction to adequately change direction or stop, and BAM - that's it. Cop was there and witnessed it, and everyone agrees that the other driver is 100% at fault. Car is going to Eurotech on Wednesday.

And the other car... doesn't look so bad, but impact was square on his front wheel and I'm sure it pushed his front subframe over a bit. No airbag deployment for him.

3/4 of it is already paid for!

I couldn't agree more, that's why it's going to Eurotech ;-)
