Default Probably totalled...

At this intersection, there are two lanes that turn left. I was in the outer one. As I was turning left, an old lady had pulled up to the intersection from the other direction and was turning right. She claimed that her light was green as well. It was a low speed impact. I tried to swerve and miss her, but she hit my passenger side rear door, quarter panel, and fender. The impact pushed the metal into my tire and popped it. It also spun my car halfway around. I ended up halfway off the road. Neither of us were ticketed for the accident because we had conflicting stories.

I found out that this side has seen some action before. There was damaged body filler on the metal. That's something I didn't know before.

The inside doesn't look bad though.

i doubt that will total your car. a door with a few hours of labor for sheetmetal, then paint... i would think maybe 1500-2k worth of damage total.

No one stayed to see if we were ok. Sucks. The worst part was that she was so nice. We were both really nice, neither was angry. It went about as good as they can go.

oh man, that sucks
i'm really surprised the window is intact... a little harder of a hit and it would be broken probably.
hopefully it gets taken care of quickly and you don't get screwed over in one way or another.
