Got struck from behind in our Impala rental in Maui this past July. Kid that hit us fell asleep. LUCKILY we opted for the insurance.

Best part was pulling up to the AVIS returns aisle, then removing strips of duct tape that held the trunk shut...to remove our bags.

Got hit from behind in 1998. Sitting in my Crown Vic cruiser , alongside I-15. All my top lights ON, 4 way flashers ON. Great visibility for 1/2 mile. Got hit by an elderly Canadian (probably fell asleep or very fatigued) at about 60 mph. Totaled the car as well as my poor M-14 rifle which was in a case, crosswise in the trunk.

I'd wager the OP's kid was texting. It's epidemic with kids now.
