Speaking of bump steering - I was tboned on the pax side by a redlight
runner a few months ago. (unfortunately, with no witnesses the ins cos just
called it no-fault.  I smell a scam. Ok, a "systemic inequity").  The shop
said that there was no damage to the frame, but I'm suspicious about whether
they actually measured it or not.  They replaced the doors, and did a nice
job on the paint, but ever since, I've felt as though the car does bump
steers more on some of the rutted, washboard asphalt around here, especially
when braking.  I don't *think* that it drifts to the right more than the
ordinary crown in a highway would cause.  

Is there any reason that I would be seeing bump steering without pronounced
pull to one side after an accident like this?
