| I driving my jeep and was hit on the drivers side by a mercedes that was moving 35mph. i watch the whole scene coming through my front soft top glass window. my face hit the soft top window and broke my nose pretty bad according to dr. charles shaffer (my surgieon). by the way the soft top and upper door halfs were the factory equipped willy's edition model specific which are supplied to dailmer chrysler by hertz. blood was everywhere and took 3 hours to completely stop the bleeding. i was wearing my seat belt by the way. i had to have surgery to my nose and several follow up sessions. i feel very lucky that it was a mercedes that hit me because they are able to crush very well. his vehicle was totaled and had neck pain and i drove home with a broke nose, bent rear axle shaft (bend was outside of the axle bearing, which makes one of my rear brakes useless), damaged factory rocker panel (willy's edition model specific), damaged body, rear fender flare, i also had to straighten and reweld the body mount that tore off the frame( there are 3 body mounting points that are clearly visible between the 2 drivers side wheels, the mount closest to the rear tire was torn off the frame) please contact me if you would like to ask me more questions at (704) 506-4592. | |||
