i had my first crash at traffic lights, had a tyre blow out and it hit the curb and a metal council railing. The bonnet was never touched, not even a scratch, just the passenger side, when i put it to a stop, which then busted the front tyre and then smashed the headlights, knocked the wing off.
was doing 45 in a 50 zone, was able to stop it around 40ish when traffic lights went red, when steering the steering wheel, only 1 front driver wheel turns normal, the other one, doesnt turn at all and stays there, the rest of the other 3 wheels are fine.
i knocked the wing off flying the headlights was smashed. anyone done this and got a fair idea what it is which has gone wrong, the passenger side front looks like a rite off, the chassis survived thankfully
cheers
