A little background before I dig into this one.....I have 13 years in law enforcement. I am a crash investigator. I am a certified traffic crash reconstructionist and do "side work" for several insurance companies. I have been involved in several studies for vehicle crash safety standards. I have also worked a study involving vehicle speed vs. telephone poles. I have investigated 67 fatal crashes, and approximately 1400 other crash incidents. I have created a program for new teen drivers that is in ADDITION to their Driver's Education classes. Enough about me.............
Issue #1 The OP stated the other driver was 20 years old. He is no longer his parents responsibility. Why are we harping about getting lawyers and going after his parents? This guy was not a teenager and should not be treated as such. Issue #2 Teenage driving - how safe is it? I can only speak from what I have seen. Out of 67 fatal crashes I have been involved in, only 6 have involved teenage drivers. 3 were the other driver's fault. I don't have the exact #s, but in my experience the 20-30 year old segment are involved in more injury related crashes. Teenagers are involved in more "fender bender" types of crashes. Teenage girls are worse than teenage boys. Issue #3 The Crash. Even before the telephone pole revelation, I could say for certain that the crash did not happen like we have been led to believe. A rear end crash with #1 going 25 mph being hit by #2 going 40mph does not result in the damage pictured. That result would have been more of just a bumper crush and a little into the rear deck lid. Without seeing both cars, or any physical evidence at the scene it would be hard to determine speed or other factors. What I do know is that the OP, if it really is his car, was not traveling 25 mph when he hit the pole or tree or whatever it was. The question is what happened prior to impact to send him into it backwards? My guess is road racing and he got clipped and sent off the road. They are CRASHES, not ACCIDENTS. Accidents imply no fault, there is alway fault.

Why is it so hard for everyone to believe that a 2010 Camaro can be had in a few days? There are 3 dealerships around me that have 1-2 sitting on the lot. I could go buy one right now if I wanted to or had the money to.
