There are a lot of people on the road who are driving under the influence of tacos, especially during the holiday season. We can all learn from this experience. Please people, if you're going to taco, call a cab or use a "designated driver".

That is a tough situation. I used to try to do stuff like that for other drivers, as far as letting them know when it was clear to pull out. I don't really do it unless it is absolutely clear that the person is wanting to pull into my lane only. Otherwise, it gets kinda sticky and unclear.
Definitely no more waving or flashing.

I actually had a similar incident, luckily it wasn't with my S. I was turning left to cross the 2 lane traffic going south so I can go north and this bus waved me to go. Unfortunately, the further lane going south had another car coming and that is when I got smacked doing a 720 spin. Next thing I know, I was facing south on the lanes that were going north.
As pissed as I was at the bus driver, it was totally my fault. Even by law, it is my fault which is fully understood in my part. I was young and stupid during that period so I didn't know any better listening to other drivers. Well, lesson learned. Anyways, good luck with the repairs or getting into a new S.

Sucks to hear man, this clearly wouldn't have happened though if you would have properly invested your money in "Taco Bell" tacos, truly your biggest mistake.

Na fucck that dude, people are supposed to have their vehicles under control at all times... ive been that dodge pickup a few times yet I have failed to hit the other car.. brakes, steering wheel, Lside Rside and rearview mirrors, oh and paying attention to your surroundings are all great ways to keep you from smashing into other cars when someone slips up a little bit.
Hopefully it isnt too bad but they do total it so u can get another car... then buy it back and build a sweet track car

It's definitely his fault.
I was on the other end of a similar situation once. I was in the left lane (left turn only) passing a long line of cars in the right lane (straight only) and someone was waved through the line, pulled out and slammed into my quarter panel.
