Wrecked my Z on my way to work

Came over a hill on the highway and saw massive debris so I swerved and lost control. I managed to regain control but it was too late; I rear-ended a Civic and spun out some more, falling off to the valley-shaped hill past the median and finished with a nice little bump to a light pole with my driver's side quarter panel. Front end is destroyed (not sure if I have frame damage but it sure seems like it from the caliber of the crash and slide) and left quarter panel is dented pretty good. Civic is totaled from the back-- frame damage. Everyone is okay as far as I know...except for my ego..

Near the 288s/beltway 8 intersection. Waiting to hear back from the body shop today or tomorrow if it's been totaled. I feel like a total idiot lol that's the worst part! Couldn't handle the 70mph drift haha

Sorry to hear about your accident, but don't worry you're not alone. I wrecked my G35 Coupe there too because of debris on the road and it was raining. Bounced off the Beltway 8 barrier at 50mph. Frame damage but I got it fixed, bought myself a 370Z and gave the G35 to my sister as a birthday present LOL. See pic..

Dude. That's rough, but like we used to say in the USMC when I was flying helicopters, "any landing you can walk away from is a good one"

Collect your insurance and build your baby up this time like you wish you would have last time.

It's just stuff after all.

Thankfully, it was just my Z and the Civic I hit. This was at 5:30 AM.

Thank you! They still haven't completed the assessment yet but it's expected to be completed this afternoon. As of now I'm not expecting it to be totaled but that is just an estimate based on the guy's tone over the phone lol no reasonable scientific basis. Don't be mad at me, PSYCH majors..haha
