Has anyone experience a 25 mph or less traffic collision like in the parking lot or on neighborhood streets and what was the the extent of the damage?(rear end, sideswipe,front end,etc.) I am trying to figure out if there is a major diiference in car demage between a 40 mph and a 25 mph collision because I almost got into a collision in a neighboorhood street.

Answer 2

I had an intersection collision in a residential area with a median. The damage was alittle over $1,000.00. The violator struck the right front fender of my van. His car got considerable more damage due to the fact he hit the brakes hard, and turned. He actually went under my bumper. Spedd was at most 25-30.

Answer 3

Yes! I was only going about 10 mph & a guy pulled out of a parking lot & T-boned my '98 Malibu. It was totaled! The strut was completely broke in half & the fender was pushed all the was to the opposite side of front passenger tire.

Answer 4

Yes, once a lady ran a stop sign and hit the right side of the car and smashed in the door and front fender and bumper. No one got hurt because we had our safety belts on but the insurance had to pay for the damage. I know it was only 25 miles per hour.

Answer 5

Most collisions occur at less than 25 mph. A 40 mph crash is devastating and results in tremdous damage to vehicles and usually injuries to passengers.

Answer 7

I was...I failed to see a jeep in front of me in the parking lot and I ended up with the front of my car under it's back bumper. Ended up with a nasty scratch on the hood...I had to have the paint redone...expensive way to learn how to pay attention!
