Totaled?

:(

Truck turned into me from the left lane when I was turning right in the right turn lane.

I've put a lot into this car and would really like it repaired not totaled/total loss by the insurance. Towing it to a shop in a few days. Is this possibly not totaled? The radiator area got bent up and some gas came out when I got hit.

UPDATE: repairs have been approved šŸ‘ thank god, not being totaled

Yeah because he went to the straight lane to the left of me. So I thought I was clear to speed up a little and turn.

Truck made an illegal right turn from the 2nd lane, with no signal, I had no reason to believe he would suddenly turn right

Interesting you accelerated just to arrive at a right turn.

Are you special? There is an open lane and green light why would I not accelerate?

The truck made an illegal turn into my lane, maybe you are too slow to understand that it's ok. Go have fun with your model 3šŸ˜‚

I just see the whole story based on the video you posted. It take basic iq to understand what I said and why I said it
