Not sure if it's totaled yet, the body shop was going to start looking at it today. According to the other driver a city bus slammed on it's brakes after passing the bus stop, she almost hit the bus and I hit her.

The really bad thing is i'm in florida on spring brake with my family and I live in Ohio. The body shop said if it is repairable it will be about 4-6 weeks so I had to find a flight back to Ohio and I will have to come back to FL and pick it up later.

One thing about the Cayenne after the crash the hazzards were on and the parking brake was on. I'm not sure why unless it is built into the system.
