Glad to hear you and wife are OK. Sorry about your Hyundai, I have a red Santa Fe sport. Love the ride and 30 + miles per gal. My son and his wife have one just like yours "was". Same color also.

Glad you and your wife weren't injured, Ed. Usually I've found it takes 2 days for soft tissue to manifest any pain or discomfort. Hope that doesn't happen to you.

Something similar happened to us in 2015. Just all the airbags opening caused the car to be a total writeoff. I was doing 50 mph on a road indicated as 50mph in an '09 Audi. Off the side road a Mercury run out at me, their fault. We were amazed at the locals coming out to help us. Audis are rated by ins.companies as "no death cars" along with Volvos, so we bought another.
I feel for you but you can always replace the car.

People are often surprised by how many will come running to help a stranger.

December 1973, my "city girl/So Cal LA Area wife and I were on our honeymoon at my Grand Mother's house in a small Western Kentucky town. The streets have ditches and your driveway has a small bridge over it. Just at dawn as we were backing out our car slipped off on the packed snow and one rear wheel was hanging over the ditch. Two pickup trucks full of duck and goose hunters headed down to the Ohio River bottoms stopped and 4 guys bailed out to help me lift the rear of the car while my wife steered it down to the street. She tried to give them a $20 bill and they just waved her off as they ran back to their trucks while one guy I had gone to high school with yelled "Explain small towns to her."
So I had to tell her: A. If you ask someone to do something you may pay them or they may just say you owe them one. B. If they see you need help and come over on their own you never pay, you owe them one or you pass it on to someone else on the idea that eventually a good deed will make its way back to them via the "pay it on" method. In fact offering money was an insult to some.

Being from the LA Metro area where you pretty much pay to have anything done it surprised her and after a bit of thought it pleased her that it was like that. For one thing she then understood why I was always helping people for free.
