One drink driver, two broken V Dubs

[Sawed Off]

Driving home from work today, I had a drink driver smash pretty hard into the back of my work Caddy while I was stopped at traffic lights. That pushed me into a Mk5 GTI that was in front of me. The GTI got a stoved in rear bumper, and possibly a bent hatch. The Caddy is fairly well banana shaped having been the meat in the sandwich. It ended up being towed. The cops say the drink driver was 5 times over the limit. Everyone got out OK, although the seat bolstering gave me a numb arm after hitting the funny bone nerve, and I have some muscular whiplash.

I'm really disappointed as I like my Caddy. It was the prime reason I went and looked at and ultimately bought a Golf. The boss has a crappy old Liteace that I'll probably have to drive for a few months while something gets worked out with insurance.

Damn. I have been the meat in that sandwich (in a '70 Type 3 VW too) and it's not pleasant. I didn't think I was too bad until I was almost unable to sit up from my bed the next day.

I hope you're OK and that insurance handle the claim quickly. *fingers crossed*
