First... I am OK save for some sore ribs from where the airbag hit me in the chest.
Thank GOD my passenger and I were wearing our seatbelts. I won't let the car move without everyone buckled. My passenger was in the hospital briefly and released. The police told me that we were the innocent victims of a road-rage incident between the occupants of two other cars. I was doing 30mph at the time. The other car must have been doing 60mph when it hit me. I honestly never saw it coming.
Also thank GOD for Toyota's engineering. All of the impact was absorbed by the front of the car. The passenger cabin was undamaged. The car is totaled, but two of us are still here to talk about it.
