It is a good deal for the person willing to work the problems out. I

Hey Peter,

it, its sort of sad to know that everything about a Mercedes leads up to this

sacrifice

No idea, but probably a bit flatter than before, anyway.
I was busy trying to breath, and then they strapped me to the back
board. That punch in the ribs hurts!
Lotta people stopped, were very nice and helpful, the EMTS did a great
job.
And this is precisely why I drive a Benz.

You of course are consulting a person in the legal profession as well as
specialist physicians -- those car crash injuries can require
considerable convalescence and the total effects might not be apparent
for some time. Then of course there is loss of conjugal pleasure while

Real glad your'e doing so well!

Sad, but one literally needs to try to confirm that cross traffic is

practice of red light running seems to be worsening in my estimation.

Sorry to hear about your accident. It may be several days before your
body feels the full impact of the trauma. Take it easy for a while. If
you normally exercise, take a break.
If they do give you pain pills of any sort, remember that they all
tend to slow down your gut. Especially the opiates.
Peter,
wow; glad to hear you're reasonably OK! original body parts are *so*
much better than the aftermarket stuff they're installing in the
hospitals these days. (DAMHIK.)
sorry to hear about your 300D, but here's a tip of the hat and a
moment of silence in its honor for a job well
Glad to hear that you are OK, and that the car did it's job of keeping
you that way!
I feel much better about my mother driving a 300 TE, as much of a pain
as it has been keeping it running nicely (idle and AC problems, finally
fixed). At least if she gets slammed she is unlikely to be
Must have been quite the bang when the van hit you! Wonder if he was on his

I'm in Evansville, IN. Gotta settle with the insurance (through the

I ALWAYS check at that interseciton, there have been several fatals
there. However, there was a car in front of me turning left, and there
wasn't anything coming when I looked, he was so far back. Musta been

Yeah, people die from opiate induced bowel paralysis. Not funny.
Thanks for the advice.
I don't intend to take the pain meds unless i cannot sleep. So far, no
worse than a back spasm. Sitting up requires some preparation,
otherwise I'm just sore.

I have two witnesses on the police report, my brother is buddies with
some of the deputies, and was on the fire department up to a couple
months ago. I got extra good treatment.
Lotta people stopped, warms the heart.
Thanks for all the good wishes!

We shall see how this plays out.
I'll take pics of the car tomorrow.

Might want to read some of the threads in the archives about dealing
with insurance companies. I've always felt I've gotten more than fair
treatment for collision damage, thankfully I've never been involved in
an injury claim I'm sure that takes things to another level since the
$$ can be orders

I survived a back spasm w/o drugs last week. First couple of nights it

Glad you are in better shape than the Benz. I search many cities in the midwest
on Craig's List looking for MB auto's. I will post any '87's that I find. I was
told in an advanced motorcycle riders course that green lights are merely
suggestions. I guess this proves that point.

Peter, get the attorney soon. They know how to work this system and
will keep both insurance vultures from screwing you over. Granted
you lose 33% of recovery to them, but it does tend to increase your

Glad to hear you're not too badly hurt, Peter. Be sure and get a recheck if
you have too much pain. I walked around in considerable pain for a week
after the same kind of accident and finally found out the shoulder had a
