Some pictures from my Fall '01 accidental Truck Mishaps

(Click on the pictures for larger versions)




The first few pictures are the result of me turning left and an oncoming Altima bouncing off my bumperand driver's front tire. Damage to the truck was a cracked headlight, turn signal / parking light, and a cracked support that the lights mount to. In addition the bumper was dimpled and pushed into the fender, slightly bending the fender in.

The Altima's door wouldn't open and the parking light assembly and side mirror ended up ~15 feet in front of the car. The car may have been driveable, but it was towed directly to the body shop.

Three days later I was backing into a service road to load some canoes after a friend's wedding, when I misjudged and didn't stop in time; backing over a stump like post. This managed to take out my rear bumper and bedside panel. The interesting view is the buckle in the bed side panel just in front of the rear tire.
