So, I just totalled the car....

OK so here's what happened -and do you think we can sue?

Ice storm/sleet hit. Was in the outside lane on I75 in UP Michigan. No real traffic about but was about to pass an on-ramp so had pulled into outside lane in case there was any joining traffic. Hebe put on a CD as we settled in, then suddenly the car span off the road, did 180, hit the central res barrier passenger side on, went through it, ended up nose towards the barrier, tail in the fast lane of the other carriageway.

So, the barrier is the wire things, designed the have the posts break but the wires catch the cars. the Sheriff was real pissed because the barrier is new and we were the first to "test" it, and it failed because we went straight through it. can we sue?

No, and they'll bill you for barrier repairs.

I remember my father getting billed by the electric company for a pole my mother took out. He made me go drag that sucker home.

I paid for the one in my front yard. Dearly.
