[QUOTE="Max97COBRAtkd, post: 15581526, member: 48266"] It took me a week to even be able to stomach writing this to the community. Last Sunday, I was on my way home from a great day at some car shows down in Myrtle Beach. Met lots of cool car enthusiasts..

I was stopped at a red light on a stretch of 17N where the speed limit was 55. I look in my rear view mirror and only have time to thing, "Oh crap! (Another word was used)." A young girl who is believed to most likely of been texting or distracted by her phone slammed her VW Bug into me. Had to have been going around 40mph or so. No signs of an attempt to stop. She tried to lie and say her brakes went out but when they pulled her car around to the tow truck it stopped just fine in front of all of us.
