Drunk driver wrecked my truck tonight - pics
I consider myself to be quite defensive when it comes to driving, always watching out, looking at other vehicles, preparing for any bonehead thing they may do.... But you know, sometimes some clown...

Naw, that won't be a 'total'.. Probably 5 grand to fix your truck at most.. That's what insurance is for and it'll come from the drunks side, if he has insurance...
Shouldn't have even set off your air bag... You didn't say if it did or not, but I'd be surprised if it did..
Glad all came thru alive.. Even the drunk... Hopefully the police verified the deal and the rest is just going to be a hassle..

Heck, replacing a back fender and running boards was 8 grand last year!! Front end is pushed into the tire, fender and hood buckled and the obvious stuff in the pic. I think it's more like ten grand, but I'll find out when I take it to a shop.
I talked the cops into letting me drive it home damaged like that. Many thousands of dollars worth of tools and I don't want it sitting in a tow yard.
No, didn't set off air bag.
Everyone at site, fire crews, cops, others smelled the booze. Cops dealt with it. They had cop car parked close and trunk open - likely to have him blow.
No injuries - that's the most important thing. Vehicles can be fixed. His was very obviously totaled.
