Following to close in rush hour traffic. Someone slammed on their brakes in front of the car that was in front of her. She has sync in her car and talks through the speakers in the car so that's hands free. No way will she leave the house without all her makeup on. Yes every one is Ok just shaken not stirred.

yeah, gotta keep your gap, even in rush traffic. If you rearend someone it's ALWAYS (or very nearly) your fault. Deemed you were too close. :Was it totaled? It looks like there's frame damage.

Smith System driver safety training recommends a 3-4 second following distance as minimal, at least when I last took the class.

$9400?!?!?!?!?!?
OMG whats your labor rate?????? Autobody is my profession has been for the last 30 years. unless the parts are un-goldy expensive I would have guessed half that. it seems for the most part to have missed the rail. looks mostly core support and apron damage, but alas front damage can add up fast with headlights alone costing over $1000.00 on some cars

all new parts on the front, Top and right corner on a new Mustand GT Cuda? maybe not as high as 9600 but not lower than 7.(me things, but that's just a guess)
Insurr, can ya post a list of what was replaced? Cuda does estimates for a living at a good shop. He can give some idea of what a \"real price\" would be.

How? Seriously, I didn't do it! It's not my fault! Aaaaaaack!
Sorry to see your wife's brand new car got wrecked Insurrectionist. Veeeery sad. It makes you just want to cry.
I'm very glad your wife is fine. You don't need 2 loved ones hurt in something like this.
