Unhappy I had an accident...

Well I was on my way home from a normal day of school heading down 165 when all of the sudden it started raining really hard. Well I was almost to my exit so I got in the right lane and slowed down about 10 or 15 mph...then I felt the back end start to slide a little so I let off the gas completely and just waiting...after that I started sliding counter clockwise, then back a little clockwise, then I did a huge 180 counter clockwise spin across four lanes of traffic into the center retaining wall. Well the entire front end of the truck has to be replaced, I think the resevoir is busted but I can't tell because the hood is stuck, the passenger door won't open and on the side I impacted on there is a bigger gap between the bed and cab and also the bed and cab aren't aligned(like if you stand at the back of the truck looking forward the cab sticks out to the right on the passenger side) So anyhow, that's pretty much the end of my sad story for today, in the morning I'll post pics.

Always a big downer to bend your vehicle

But I'd get your speedo checked out,something doesn't quite seem right.

Sorry to hear about the accident. Good thing you only caught the retaining wall and not someone cruising 45 on the highway.
