Ruth luckily just has a small tender spot on the back of her hip. I did a full trauma assesment on her when I got home
She was on hwy 85 in San Jose and the traffic came to a stop so did she with 6-8 feet in front of her when she got hit by a Chevy SUV which shoved Kozmo forward a few feet. She said she didn't hear any tire skreech from behind but she saw the SUV in the mirror and stood on the brake.

looked underneath and couldn't see any frame damage, one toasted bumper and 2 dings in the right barn door. But we shall see what the shop finds tomorrow

Liz and I got rear ended in her mini when we lived in california. It was slow speed, and the damage wasn't visually as bad as what you have, but it wound up being around $2500 in repairs.

It was some stupid high school girl that was talking on her cell phone. She was freaking out and called her mom. Mom showed up, said there was no damage and told her daughter to leave, while refusing to give us her insurance info. I told her that if her daughter left, I'd call the police and report it as a HNR / leaving an accident scene.

Also, check your exhaust system for cracks....specifically your manifold. Although after looking at the damage I doubt your tailpipes were contacted/pushed forward.

I saw something similar today. I was waiting to cross at the University & Marsh Creek Road, the first intersection after you come off the Dumbarton Bridge.

A stupid person realizes the light has changed red about 10 feet from the crosswalk and skids her car into the intersection.

I was in the intersection, but I have never believe the crosswalk was a forcefield, so I watched from the sidewalk instead of being struck by her car.

Clearly, the government of California should have known that he was too stupid to type in the correct url and they should have forwarded his mangled one to the proper domain for him.

Goddamn state workers are useless, I tell ya...
Just for your damn information, I copied it from Google. Which was the link to the official DMV website. That also explains why it would not load when I tried to get to the site via Google's paid link.

So, it's the DMV's fault that you fail at basic internet tasks?

This is not difficult, btw:

Also, my browser is smarter than you. Clicking on that link you fail copied, Chrome asks me this:
