    Saying goodbye to my 2010 Prius III with 155,000 miles. A young oncoming driver took an illegal left turn directly in front of me and I had no time to react. We collided and I spun nearly 180 degrees. My airbags deployed as my front end crumbled. Fortunately I was able to walk away with only a concussion, sprained wrist, and bruised chest. The airbags pack a real punch! Thank goodness for seat belts, airbags, and other safety features! My car was totaled with more than $15,000 of estimated repairs. Hello new car---a 2018 Prius IV!

    Glad you are kind of OK, the old lady sounds like she is done driving.
