An old, shitbox Corolla... I've witnessed some of the most thoughless maneouvers on the road involving a Corolla driver - cutting across 3 lanes to make quick turn, reversing on a highway on-ramp, doing 35 mph on the highway, AND not looking when backing up . I won't even dare to stereotype the shitbox 'rolla driver... I don't wanna get in trouble.
I feel your pain

Glad it wasn't more damage to the car. Get the car to a really good body shop for cheap and charge the guy a little more for mods.

That does suck. The Holidays are the worst time to be driving. People do not pay attention.
