a techer got hit by adrunk driver
Sorry to hear about what happened. I'm not sure if you were expecting the air bags to deploy, because they wouldn't from a rear collision. They are controlled by an impact sensor in the front. In your case this is better, because they are expensive to replace/repair.
Unfortunately the car will probably be totaled, mostly due to the quarters buckling from the impact, but I guess you never know until you start going through the process with your insurance co. Not sure how many miles are on it, but a '97 TA with 14X,XXX miles is worth right around mid 6K, private party. So there may be some hope.
And you always have the option of buying the car back with a salvage title and getting it fixed. I know of a few good, cheap shops. If not, then you can step your game up to another car.

Lets see if you can understand this lesson in commonsense. If I didn't read the word TEACHER (its spelled teacher btw, not techer. Ill take a reading class if you take spelling), how could I have asked the question if she was one. Simple question, but for some reason you wanted to be a smart *** about it.
It's supposed to be Tech'er

But every carrier is different, so you won't know until they talk to you.

Second, great, fast thinking about using your line lock. Great idea!
Third, until I saw the creases in the qurater panel area, I was thinking, not much damage...nice!
Some young kid rear ended me in my old IROC on the freeway. Traffic was moving, then came to a quick stop. I was like "whew" when I stopped in time to avoid the guy in front of me then I heard screeeeeeeaaaach and BAM! I got rear ended by a new jag.
I got out looked at my car, everything was fine. Looked at his car (front was hanging down) and ended up just letting him go. He was sober, and I figure he was in a world of trouble as it was (I'm not a sue happy guy).
I hope everything works out for you, and you have uninsured motorist.
First of all, glad to hear that you are ok.
