    I haven't seen it yet, jasmine was driving at the time. She had Eric at Yotamasters.com check it right after. According to him everything is good. I think the hitch took the entire impact and not the bumper.

    Since it's a 4:3 monitor, it's probably attached to an older computer.

    i will admit some possible age due to running vista, but monitors are easily reused. could be older than the CPU.

    It's been around for a while but they were supposed to actually start cracking down?? Here is what I found


    V C Section 28071 Passenger Vehicle Bumper Requirements
    Passenger Vehicle Bumper Requirements

    28071. Every passenger vehicle registered in this state shall be equipped with a front bumper and with a rear bumper. As used in this section, "bumper" means any device designed and intended by a manufacturer to prevent the front or rear of the body of the vehicle from coming into contact with any other motor vehicle. This section shall not apply to any passenger vehicle that is required to be equipped with an energy absorption system pursuant to either state or federal law, or to any passenger vehicle which was not equipped with a front or rear bumper, or both, at the time that it was first sold and registered under the laws of this or any other state or foreign jurisdiction.


    If the trailer hitch is beyond the bumper, it's no longer the first contact in a collision.

    That's what I was thinking of. Seem to remember a lot of states supposedly cracking down on it, and then they probably went back to business as usual.

    oh I'm sure yours does. It's pretty much up to the officer on how big of a dick they want to be because of this^^^.

    just say you are on the way to a friend's/b-i-l's house to take his boat out fishing [he has a lifted jeep that is about to explode (true story)].

    Everything was exchanged on the side of the road without any police at the scene. I don't think they were even called. And I'm pretty sure jasmine stayed with the other occupants until the tow truck arrived for them. I guess we'll see what the insurance says in the next few weeks and go from there. Just glad nobody was hurt or that it was worse.
