Thumbs down

yea.. that was me.


The story: I was behind this ford windstar minivan with a disabled tag on the rear view mirror, and they were going slow. so I got in the right lane [they stayed in the lane that turns off to lake oswego], and I'd moved up to [their blindspot?] and then they came over and I swirved left, fishtailed, spunout [somewhere in there I scraped a ford SUV on my driver's front corner], and then I stopped pointed back down I5 the right way, and then I got hit in the back by a taurus....

:/

there's a very small frame dent underneath the rear bumper [the bumper poped back in place], and only surface damage on the front corner

other than that, the SUV and taurus drivers were fine, as am I. the taurus has a smashed driver's headlight, and the suv only has a surface scrape
I don't know what happened to the windstar..

I'll post picts of my damage later tonight if I can remember...

Nope, no one was hurt [Thank God.]
I've been a little weary since it, but that's the worst of it.
