Bye bye yaris thanks for keeping us alive.
So my yaris did it finally mission, it kept myself and my daughter alive. So happy and greatful I kept it in great condition over the 14 years, it was a rust bucket the outcome would of been alot worst. I was driving on the highway when I changed lanes due to merging traffic from an on ramp, when and SUV driver got pissed of (road rage) and spent up and hit the driver rear side of the car, his tire marks are on the car as in the photo, which caused the car to spin. I hit the concrete median at 100km/h / 62mph crushed the driver side, bounced off crossed over three lines of highway and hit the guard rail on the passenger side about 300 meters away. The driver side wheel came into the cabin and was leaking fuel. Had remove my foot from the wheel, kick open the door, got the seat belt off, got my daughter out from the child seat and exited and ran away and over the guard rail from the car. Happy to be alive, only got part of the plate from the SUV but I got the model and color as he sped away from the accident. My daughter was good, just bruises from the child seat straps, I was in ICU for 2 days. I'm out now nothing broken, just bad swelling in the back and chest. I got a mild concussion with head trauma, and left leg nerve problems due to the swelling. But I'm alive and my daughter still has a dad for tea and dress up party. As the car is a write off, alot of my extra pieces I will be getting rid of soon in the sale section, next week.
