Thanks for all of the kind words guys/girls. The car is at the body shop right now and he said it doesn't look too good for the car. The frame is bent pretty bad. Passenger side rear tire is pushed so far forward that it is touching the wheelwell. also the clutch is not working and the and the car will not turn over. basically everything from the doors back will have to be replaced. They are all cracked and sitting wrong. still waiting on the final verdict though.

When I'm driving in traffic I watch the car behind me as much as the cars in front of me ---- I try to keep a lot of distance between me and the front car so I don't have to make any short stops and surprise the person on the damn cell phone behind me ----
Hope things work out for you

Plus I always watch the person behind me and it still amazes me how many people will look down or look some where else inside their car as they come to a stop. Instead of waiting until they stop, they start doing all kinds of crap and they are still rolling forward.
Sorry for your misfortunes.
