KI3T crash

Well the short story is I got into an automobile accident Friday night. A cop pulled out illegally right in front of me and there was no way to stop in time. My head hit the steering wheel and knocked out a lot of my teeth. It also broke my lower jaw and my teeth went through my bottom lip. I just got out of the hospital today but I have to go back Tuesday to get all of my teeth taken out and have reconstruction surgery on my jaw. :(

Today I went to the place where my car was towed. The voice orb was undamaged but I took the electronics out of him because the folks that owned the towing company said vandals break in there lot at night and steal stuff from other cars.

This is where my head hit the windshield.

Thanks! Yeah I am going to fix KI3T back up. The other driver's (police) insurance should cover the damages made to me and my KI3T.

Look, if you're going to try and re-enact scenes from the pilot, at least use an SUV for target practice, okay?

Glad you got out relatively okay and get well soon!

WOW! I hope you're doing fine now. My dad was in a minor accident with the police as well. The cop car was making a u-turn as they hit my dad's front bumper but you know what the funny thing is? Once my dad got out of his car to claim the police's insurance, they wanted to take a Breathalyzer test to make sure he wasn't under the influence when in fact he was stationary and all the blame was to put on the police! Wierd...

Thanks for the well wishs. It means a lot to me.
This is one of the most painful experiences of my life but they have me on so much Demerol that I am laid up in bed watching a Dr. Who marathon (4th doctor of course) :lol:

It's a funny thing you mentioned that because that's exactly what I thought when it happened. It felt just like that.

I have some work to do today for Matt and Ted and some others. I have to get this done by this week before my surgery so I can get them all sent out. (Prescription drugs don't fail me now.) :lol:

All joking aside all of you guys are a blessing. Thank you!

Taoworm, that sounds like a nasty crash. I'm glad to see you're okay, and hope your recovery goes well. As everyone else has said, make sure you take care of yourself first.

Joshua my friend,

I’m glad to hear that you’re relatively ok. Having survived a rather nasty car crash myself nine years ago, I can emphasise with a lot of what you’re going through right now. As long as you stay strong though, and lean on your friends and family when you need to, I know that you’ll be stronger once you can finally put this chapter behind you. :good:

Matt

I guess you did not have time to hit the turbo boost?

In the words of Kitt:
"I guess you zigged when you should have zagged"

Glad your ok though

Wow dude, Gald to hear that you are among the living. Sucks what happened to both you and K3TT, ut remember that a human life can never be replaced, cars can! Take time to heal and as soon as you get a KARR Voice orb going, let me know. For now, take all the time you need. And to think I wanted to be a cop myself :P

Hopefully you and KI3T will be back on the road soon.

Get well soon.

DAMN! That's nasty... I hate road patrols, they think they can go "Code 3" 24/7.

What was your speed?

Tao,

You will be in our prayers!
So, the next thing you need to work on is nanotech and the occupant safety restraint system. :)
In looking at the pictures, I too see what looks like the deployed airbag that someone else saw. What happened that it didn't protect you from the windshield and steering wheel? I wonder if maybe you have a lawsuit against Ford if it was somehow defective or failed?

Hugs and prayers for a speedy recovery!
Rainack

Ouch! Glad to hear you're reletively ok. Some of the worst accidents I've seen involved the cops. Take it easy, and get well. I guess now you'll have to add the molecular bonded shell to your list of upcoming mods...
