Yaris Accident: How Much To Fix?

I happened to read this post after your following one, but I'm glad I did as that made it even funnier on it's own (for those of us who read a certain recent thread Bronsin started).

I just hope that Bronsin has learned a lesson here. The safety features in the Yaris are there for a very good reason. I have had several accidents myself and have walked away from every one of them. I have hit a deer (try that one in a Tercel) and a transit bus (same Tercel) and several cars (yes the drivers here are that bad), and have never been hurt.

Why .. cause manufacturers like Toyota put things in their vehicles that make walking away a possibility.

I am just happy that no one got hurt in this case, cause cars can be repaired and humans, not so easily.

Agreed. Humans don't heal as easily. I learned something as well (as I found myself agreeing with Bronsin at times on THIS point (I agree with him on other points.....except which baseball team to root for....boo Yankees!). It's almost like karma...after Bronsin's rant and then my rant and then comments from others it seems as though a rash of YW members got in accidents in a short period of time.
