DID get hit!!

... or rather I hit someone who was running a red light. I was going through a large intersection a little over a hour ago, when I struck an older camaro which was running the red. We hit the camaro on the driver's side door which was pretty well smashed in. The good news is that there were no injuries. Everyone was wearing their seatbelts and I was able to slow down slightly in the half-second after the car appeared in front of us until I hit it, so no air bags deployed or anything like that.

The damage to our VUE does not look extensive; but at least the hood, both headlights and turn signals, the front plastic cover, front bumper cover, as well as both front quarter panels will have to be replaced.

I tried to snap a picture of the camaro but it was dark and the camera on my phone sucks in the dark. Here are some pictures I took of the VUE when I got home.

    UPDATE: $4100 damage done to the VUE and it's going to take two weeks to fix.
