      Sucks. One of the first things a lot learn is following too close. If I am in any kind of traffic I leave multiple car lengths in front of me. Of course random people will dive bomb in front of me and slam on the brakes but that is better than people stopping short. Live and learn. It definitely sucks.

                      You hit wicked hard man, trying keeping your eyes on the road. I think the wheel spirits hated your fake splits yo

                        Looks like most of it hit above the bumper, all the metal above the bumper is very thin.

                            That sucks mate. I agree 100% with nwvb bmw on this. I had an accident exactly the same. Its a rough lesson, but it has to be learnt

                                It's funny I don't get how anyone rear ends somebody. If you keep at MINIMUM 3 car lengths between you and the car in front you'll always have enough braking and maneuvering distance. I usually put even more in front of me.
