Unhappy Well, I went and did something stupid, and wrecked my Yaris

I was on my way to work and started goofing off, and took an S curve really fast... It's usually an empty road but right as I was leaving the second bend, there was a cop coming the other way. When I saw the cop (not when he turned on his lights like I wrote before), it spooked me, and I lost control of the car. I fish-tailed a couple of times, then veered off the road, over a curb and into(through) a no parking sign. I got 3 tickets and almost went to jail. He wrote me up for "reckless driving", "left of center", and doing 73mph in a 30mph zone. I was very worried I was going to jail. He had the cuffs on me and in the back of the car. I was praying to God that if he keeps me out of jail, I'll never do that on public streets again. People from my work kept stopping to find out if I was ok. Miraculously, the cop let me go, but I have a court date the beginning of August. The insurance company said it was about $6,200 worth of damage and I will owe them the $500 deductible when the car is fixed(around the 21st). Basically, I can't believe how stupid I was. You can flame me all you want, it can't be worse then the ass kicking I'm already giving myself... I took these pictures at the tow lot with my crappy cell phone camera before the insurance company towed it to a body shop. Just a warning to everyone out there, to keep it on the track,or you might end up like me, or worse...
