I was minding my own business while Southbound on Hwy 67 passing through Camby. Slowed for a red light at Heartland Blvd. and BOOM. struck from behind by a black Impala. Impala more than likely totaled, and my work van, while drivable, is no longer functional as the rear doors are toast. Sliding side door only opens about 75%. Van will probably be totaled as well, as the damage is going to be more than 'the vehicle is worth, as it is 10 yrs old and 250k miles. The one witness stated that the driver had his head down and was looking at his phone when he drifted into my lane and struck my van, and never applied the brakes. Impact at about 45-50mph. He wasn't injured and I just have a stiff neck. He admitted to the deputy that he had been texting at the time of impact and was cited for same. I guess I'll be shopping for a new van next week. Hope everyone else had a better day than mine. No texting while driving please.
