Yikes, I take it you were OK? The 401 scares me, in the last 2 or 3 months many people I know have been hurt there, and some perished . Four people, I think, that I know personally, in 3 months !
I'm sorry to hear about your friends being hurt/killed on the 401 too -- its a terrible highway in places

Yeah, I was mostly Ok -- a few weeks off work, chrio and misc. but thankfully no major injuries! I was actually impressed how well my car stood up (good quality north american steel i guess ) ... had quite a lot of problems getting back on the highway afterwards (i drive from the miss/oakville boarder to markham every day) so i ended up getting an Escape instead. Theres just too many agressive/overtired truckdrivers out there I think, and the fact that the one that hit me first 'didn't see me there' made me more worried.
