I got rear ended... (Atlanta)
Well... I was on I-85S about to be at the I-85/I-75 connector. The cars in front of me slammed their brakes so I did as well. I stopped just in time and as the breath of relief came out of my mouth, BOOM! 2010 Toyota Camry rear ended my FR-S. I had been recently reading about accidents happening to people after about 1000 miles and I just hit 2000 yesterday. I am so bummed... Here's pictures for whoever is curious... I hope that the lady driving pays me for EVERYTHING! Including the new exhaust I put on yesterday...

 Everyone reading this thread needs to go to this website right now and purchase a Blinking Smart Stop! $30 may prevent this from happening to other 86ers. Our cars are too damn short and there are too many damn distracted drivers out there. Really sorry about this man. I hope you get it repaired ASAP. Here's a link to the WORKS midpipe. With any luck your insurer will agree to replace your OEM with that one and you'll get an upgrade out of this very unfortunate accident. |

I'm 100% convinced that our cars are basically invisible.

So sad. Keep in mind, a defensive driver is the best driver.
