09 c63 accident. looks totalled

i got into a horrifying accident earlier this morning. i rear ended a truck, a chevy silverado. I was going 65.(speed limit) and he was doing an improper u-turn right on the rightlane (2 lanes) with a distance of 2 car lengths in front of me and as soon as i noticed that he pulled out. i hit the brakes as hard as i could, braking down 2 seconds before the impact. i hit him good, hardd enough that my front hood is up and bentt. my front is just demolished. i had no seatbelt on I got out w/ just a scratch on my left knuckle(impact was so hard that my left hand hit the left indicator stick and broke that plastic piece which caused the minor cut). Also from the hard collision with no seatbelt. which cause me to hit my head on the windshield w/ no concussion but a small abrassion on my forehead. As i hit him from the rear end my car hits the ditch on the right and so does his but his car traveled down a little further.
the police declared that it was his fault doing the improper u-turn.
the towing guy told me my car was totaled .

i will get pics up when i am releasing my car to Statefarm.

so im thinking of a 10-11 c63, something German of course.

*Updates* definitely a total loss in my eyes let me know what you guys think.
i'm still a newbie to this forums so i couldn't find the attachments but theres the pics.















in loving memories...

Glad you are okay. Good luck getting this sorted out. It is hard for me to relate to not wearing a seatbelt. It is an automatic part of driving for me. It would feel weird to not wear one.

You are going to be pretty sore for the next few days.

After you shake this off and if the car is totaled do you think you'll get another C63?

Wear the seatbelt & get used to it or risk going THROUGH the windshield next time

Glad you're OK. Consider yourself incredibly fortunate. I feel naked w/out my seatbelt on & I've lost friends b/c they didn't think they needed to wear seatbelts either. I don't get it.

i used to never wear my belt. i have for more than the past few years. my wife and i were rear ended on the freeway. we were at a stop in traffic, and a chevy avalanche hit us going about 45-50, and was NOT on brakes when he hit us. i got out ok, my wife had huge contusion on her forehead which resulted in a nasty black eye(hit her head on the wheel). had we not been wearing seat belts it could have been much worse with both of us ending up in the windshield. I pray you have learned a lucky lesson, and buckle the *** up next time.

When people ride with me they have to wear a seatbelt. Even if they don't care about their own safety (which is important) an unrestrained occupant can fly around the cabin in an accident and devastate the other passengers.

lol pretty typical response, how old are you? what about his family, friends, brothers sisters? I don't care but Im sure there are people in his life that do. You learn on your own? what if your so retarded after the accident that you can't learn anymore....its called irreversible damage. and the comment I don't put anyone else life in danger...very typical also

You really should hire an attorney, especially if they don't total it. You'll have diminished value to claim and that won't be easy. From my being rear ended, it took 10 months to get it settled.

exactly, you end up a vegetable, your family is left to take care of you. you die, friends and family are devastated over the loss. its never just "you learning on your own".

Sorry to hear that you should wear you seatbelt again

I totaled my white C63 one month ago in back home in Dubai.Also, I had an accident last week in LA but it was not that bad just the taillight and little scratches on the rear bumper.

So which is worse...people suggesting that the OP wear a seatbelt, or you being on a crusade against people suggesting that others wear seatbelts when it has nothing to do with you? Sorry you "hate it" when others make suggestions that could save your life. If people are telling you things like this and you hate it, look in the mirror.

Yeah, the towing guy can't officially declare it totaled. He can ASSUME. If you have doubts I say do some damage and make sure it is totaled

Okay lets set this straight, first what I hate is people pretending to really mean something when they actually couldnt care less. One reason why you guys or the guy above that mentioned consequences of not wearing a seatbelt, is because they r trying to give an impression as if he more mature and intelligent and that he actually knows what the consequences are. Holy cow as if i dont know I can fly through windshield if i dnt put my seatbelt on. Ye thats some science in there...my 5 year old sister knws its dangerous.

It was his head that got smacked and if he doesnt realize it now then i really doubt that some comment like " u knw that you can have permanent brain damage" is gonna help. Obivously we DO KNOW that u can hit ur head if u dont wear seatbelt..

I mean i dnt knw maybe some people hang out with really stupid people that have IQ lower then my pug nd they dont knw that bad things can happen when you r taking more risk so they have to keep informing them of things like this.

Its not that we dont know the consequences most of us know them,but some of us are just ignorant nd dont care beacuse we think its not gonna happen to us. Some us do it more often then other but WE ALL DO IT.
Just like Will Rogers said we are all ignorant just on different subjects.

Okay I think I have written an essay hahahhahah
