    WOW! Scary moment for sure. Glad to hear you are ok! The car can be fixed, and I think it might buff out.

    When I was much younger and still in high school. All the car guys took an English class from a particular teacher. This teacher was into high speed rally racing. Teaching was his second job or so he claimed. He told a story of a similar situation. They were on a straight road with rolling hills and a sharp right hand turn up ahead. There were power lines on poles to one side. The driver was watching the line of poles for the turn. The problem was that the road turned but the poles continued straight. They ran off the road at over 100MPH and totaled the car. Driver and navigator were both okay.
