Rain and potholes

Nick had a long commute home. 

He hit a pothole on his way home from work and blew a tire. It was raining too much, so he called AAA instead of attempting to do it himself. As he sat in his car, pulled over in the side of the road. Another driver, driving the opposite direction to where Nick was facing, hydroplaned and spun right into him. 

Nick is fine. Absolutely fine. 

The car is not. But Nicks car is better than the SUV that hit him, went through a fence at Forest Lawn, and is now totaled. Fortunately the AAAguy Nick had called showed up within 5 minutes of the accident. He had a flatbed and was able to tow Nick from the scene. Nick then waited to get another tow to a Pasadena body shop arranged by the insurance company. It was along wait. We will see what the total prognosis is for the car, but it doesn’t look like there is no structural damage to the car to the frame.
