Looks like a straight patch of road. What caused the accident? I still think that our 1st gen Vibes ('03-'08) don't have enough brake lighting to present a... HEY I'M STOPPING!!! type of warning signal to our followers, especially on a sunny day. It's only adequate at night.Hope you can get it fixed Ok. No injuries, right?

scary stuff! glad you're ok dude! car did it's jobI've been rear ended twice in my vibe. both at low impact. One by a taxi on the highway while it was stopped for a big accident taxi driver wasn't watching, hit me, started to drive away, my passenger jumped out of my car and started pounding on the taxi till he stopped. No damage ot the car, a lil whipplash to me (i was suffering a major concussion from hockey which compounded it).and second time, driving home. stopped at a red light waitin to turn right. lady behind me, who was stopped goes BAM into my back. i get out like (removed)?! she was all like "I thought you'd go!" (ya, i'm going to turn out into a car speeding up).my car? no damage. her car? her Brand new Mercedez M Class? Entire front bumper exploded and shattered allover the road.I know which car i'd rather be in!
