Wow, that was one hell of a collision. Glad you're alright.
Hard to tell from the angle, but you might get that box back.

Holy CRAP. I'm amazed the guy was even ABLE to run - the rest of those cars are absolutely, unquestionably totalled. I'm amazed his ride was in any shape to even move.

Speaking of which, it looks like you got off the easiest. Congrats!

But I have to ask - how on earth did your cousin end up with a broken leg? There's not even any cabin intrustion. Your car definitely does not look damaged enough for someone to end up with a leg fracture, unless your cousin has a death wish and wasn't wearing a seat belt.

Also, I'd wait to see if your box is totalled before you go car shopping! Might be surprised.

i was driving, my cousin was sitting behind me next to her was my 16month old son in his car seat next to him was my cousins brother they were packed not much room for movment her leg took the impact and as for the car even if it was fixable which i asure you its not (the frame is tweaked pretty bad hard to tell from these pics il try and take a couple better ones ) i dont want it back while i love my box it just wasnt working for me anymore i bought the car when i was 21 and single now im married and have a family so im looking at getting a sienna

i really doubt i would have walked away if i would have taken the intial impact like i said i love my box but after this safety is gonna be the biggest factor in my next car & your right my car did have it the easiest

damn what a crazy looking wreck! how fast must the silver lexus must have gone to then involve 5 other cars in the wreck! that's f'd up....

i hope he gets jail time or something. running a red light and speeding causing a huge wreck = death penalty in my book!

idiots ruin other *innocent* peoples lives. i hate when this happens.

Sorry about the wreck and glad you are fine. I agree with Ian, there isn't enough damage to the structure to total it IMHO.
