Disco II Crash Pictures
 

So last Saturday I was driving to visit my brother at Hampden Sydney College coming from Virginia Tech where I go to school, when this event happened. I was driving on Five Forks Rd, which is a really hilly and windy road. I came up this hill, and all I could see was to the top of the hill when this red GMC truck came barreling down the center of the road. So I either ran into the truck, or swerved off to the right which is what I did.

So I swerved right around the truck, then back onto the road and due to my speed around 60 in a 55, the car lost control and struck a tree. I'm still not quite sure exactly what happened, but the side of the car is all scratched, like at some point it slid on the asphalt. Anyways, airbags deployed, I was sent to the hospital, and my left hand has several crushed bones. I've got surgery on Friday, and I have yet to hear from the insurance company.

Here are some pictures:

Hope you get well soon, too bad about your Disco. Will you get another one ??? Judging on the damages and what the truck is worth, I doubt they'll fix it.

Did the other guy stop or take off?

Nope, the guy in the GMC never turned around. Dunno if I'm going to get another Disco or maybe a LR3. Here's a pic of my car before the wreck.
