F/€king van driver

I was driving my rs to ballincollig today at lunch time to collect something for my brother and as I was just going into a bad bend a van comes around the bend lifting and in the middle of the road leaving me with two choices- hit him and right off my car or hit the wall on the left (there was no run off just a wall off the road), I hit the wall and kept thumping off it until I came to a stop, thought I was after wrecking the whole side of the car but thankfully it was just the alloy that got all the damage, it's in bits :evil:

, my steering doesn't seam right either but hopefully it's just the tracking, so pissed off, van driver drove off and I never got a reg, and before anyone asks I wasn't speeding but at the same time wasn't going slow either.
