    i did not personally see it. however i drive a white 04 STi and upon getting home i got 2 messages from 2 coworkers saying that they just passed me on the side of the road on Peachtree Industrial and telling me to let them know if i need a ride to work and they hope i'm ok.

    so i'm wondering if whoever they saw was on here and if they're ok.

    //edit
    additional info: it was on the northbound side near Suwannee Station/Fresh Market. my coworker said it was "definitely" a Subaru and had the same spoiler as mine (stock STi spoiler).

    It was me. Some dumb fuck old lady in a old green corolla tried to make a left there, to go south, at that intersection and plowed into my pass door, spun me around. I was headed north. She must have been high. I don't see how she thought she could squeeze between a truck that just passed her and me. I avoided killing her (panic and lock up the brakes, T-boning her driver door) by swerving to the left and gunning it. I almost made it then she punted the pass rear door and rear wheel. I did a graceful 180 spin and then proceeded to roll in reverse to the shoulder. All this was in heavy 6:30 pm traffic.

    The worst part was the sign in the median, I grazed it ever so slightly and it snagged my rear bumper and pulled it 3/4 of the way off, popping my driver side tail light. I got everthing back together and she's on the road again..albeit with a nice big band-aid on the bumper and some lens repair tape. :) Going to the body shop Monday for an estimate. Cops were really cool and said it was obvious she was at fault, failure to yield.

    Anyone have a spare 04-07 rear bumper and a 04 driver side tail? Thanks!

    Wow. What surprises me is that people can't hear us coming. Most of out cars are pretty loud.

    Glad nobody was hurt and your car is going to be fixed.

    Reading your story reminds me of the deer around Peachtree City. They're all suicidal.

    Thanks for the well wishes.

    The car is basically fine, just superficial stuff that can easily be replaced. I was just very thankful all last week...considering the alternative. I have a 1 y/o and want to stick around to see her grow up.
