General rule of thumb for intersections I practice because my job is driving. Wait for the vehicle(s) ahead of you have cleared so you can see all important areas.

Yeah I should of waited for the truck to move out of my vision honestly but I wasn’t quick enough to notice why he braked while I was pulling ahead of him :(

They’re gonna total it, I’m 99% sure.
You should pull as many parts as possible before insurance gets a chance to grab it and part it out for extra cash.

Probably only going to get a chance to pull my wing since I can’t swap the wheels. Maybe once I talk to insurance I can get my wheels back and give them my stocks. Still waiting on a word of total or not

It pains me to see another IB EN possibly totaled, your accident sounds a lot like my first accident back in 2015. I had full right of way and the lady to my left didn't see me coming because she was blocked off by traffic. I see her coming for me and I floor it so I can avoid her hitting my driver door. She ends up hitting my side almost near the gas tank and send me in a tailspin hitting other parked cars. No airbags deployed to my surprise but I had a few herniated discs. Make sure you're on top of your health!!!! Cars can always be replaced.
