I didn't know V6s could go fast enough to run into that problem. .....juuuuuuuuuuuuust kidding.
Glad you're ok. That certainly sucks. I'm dealing with insurance companies myself as my wife's dd was hit yesterday. Good luck.

Hey Andrew. Was it on a banked/curved section of the road, or a straightway?
The road looks like its conncrete, right? not asphalt?

Yep camaros are 5 star safety rated. Surprisingly even when I hit the wall at 60 I didn't get one bruise or anything

Concrete! I don't know if there is a special mix they use for roads as we dont have almost any up here. I do know that in parking lots when it gets a lot wear it can become highly polished and very slick when wet. If polished up enough it can be like walking on ice when wet. I have had spots where all the traffic drives across it in front of a store and the tire paths get that polished up where I may or may not have ended up on my ass no one really knows because it was 5am on a saturday so if know one saw did I really fall. Oh man did that hurt just like Ice in winter feet went right out fell like bag of bricks. May not been anything you could done other than gone a lot slower but how much slower would actually helped get under 40 is that practical looks like highway at that point you may cause problems to others being so slow. Not that any of that matters at least you're, safe, but insurance company will hit you with surchargeable accident not sure how that works in your neck the woods up here just big fat rate hike for 7 years.
