Default 03 Monte carlo Rest in peace

This week my 2003 Monte Carlo was destroyed by a Semi. I got on
a highway on ramp.The semi let me on.He got in the left lane.I was going
65 mph and the semi was keeping me in his blind spot I sped up to 70-75 mph
he sped up.at 80 mph the turn signal came on.I floored it last look at the
dash was tack pegged 90mph.He hit me in the drivers door the impact was
unreal,I spun to the left in front of him now he is pushing me down the
highway the left front blew,I separated from him My right rear spun into
the mediun, I saw the catch wires,I took my hands off the wheel and went into the wires backwards.I took out 7 posts.The wires did there job.My car
stopped with the nose in the lane oncomming traffic.I had some good peaple help me out of the car and help stop traffic.I didnt get hurt I walked away.
Thank the good Lord!My car also did its job,incredible car.

Man, semis drive in disgustingly obnoxious ways just because they have huge trucks. They feel as if they own the road.
