Glad to hear he is ok!! I went through 3 or 4 myself growing up. My first was my super beetle . I rolled it over in a ditch... Hated making that call to dad.

His # is on speed dial on his son's phone.  Right below 911.
LOL. - Not hating, but your son is a car's worst enemy.

So.... the answer to the question, "Dad, can  I borrow your car?" would be.....

Tell him Walmart sells a bike really cheap.   ;)

Man 0 Man !!!  I'm glad he made it through another one. Whats the score now 4 or 5 cars ??  How in the world can you afford insurance if you can get any now ? I don't like to be this blunt but you need to do something before he runs out of luck and gets hurt  much less somebody else getting hurt or worse.  :(

The chevy was facing up hill at the stop sign and I bet he said I can make it,  but the wet road made him peel out,  and it was too late.  Because the chevy was  on the up hill,  it made his bumper even higher so when the previa braked it dipped under the chevy bumper, 

Kind Of like some discussion we have about VW bus's,  How you should let off the brake just before impact so the vw bumper does not dip below  the opposing bumper and get your feets smushed,  As if  anyone could remember to that in a panic situation. I'd have to wreck a bunch of bus's to train my self to do that SC

On Thursday,  I left work , all smiles.,  Then I saw blue lights behind me,  Oh no.. they got me.   But then the Police passed me,  WHew, Lucky day.  Smiles,  Then I came around the bend.   More blue lights.  , See Previa van kissing a Chevy,  Rats...

If I were in the Chevy, I would stick Toyota stickers on it and hope they didn't catch it.

The insurance woman called asked if they could trade me a check for the crashed van.  I took the the check.  Cost of van $800 Crash check  $2950.  Has anyone every said ,  No way and bargained back and forth?.  Seems like  I'm always offered way more than the the cars are worth.  Although I hear stories of folks getting low balled and feeling ripped off.  SC
