This insurance adjuster has confirmed......it's totaled. I hope you are ok. make sure you get anything you want to salvage out of it ASAP before the insurance company gets salvage bids from salvage buyers. They will get mad if they bid on it and items have been removed that they thought they were getting.

i was dumb enough to drive late at inght. i fell asleep at the wheel. hit a tree. could of avoided the second one but the airbag hit my hand off the wheel nd hit the other one. after i hit both. my car was still running. the dust from the airbag filled the car so i opened my windows nd pulled off to the side..
well i need a new car soon..

im thinking of getting a ep3 hatchback (2003 civic si)

OUCH! at least you are ok, how's your neck feeling at this point? Driving late at night is a nasty habbit to break, I've pushed the limits on that a couple of times (not always by choice....) My friends dad used to work LONG hours and have to drive home at like 3:00am, he'd hold a needle in his hand and slightly ***** his leg if he felt like he was drowsy. Sorry to hear about the accord but at least you walked away from it! What year/model/trim was it?

Falling asleep at the wheel sucks! Did you know that driving while tired is even worse than driving while intoxicated? I'm not preaching to you as I see you have learned from this experience. I have learned from some of my own screw ups (ahem.....DUI 5 years ago).

if you have long enough hair, pinch some of it in the window with the window rolled up
that way if your head starts to droop it will pull your hair.
