So, I was in an accident...
And it could have been sooo soo much worse....
My car is fine but wait til you see dude's car...I was yielding at an intersection when from out of nowhere, I got hit in the back.
But you know...what was kinda funny was first I made sure I was ok and the way I was hit I JUST KNEW the back of my car was messed up and then I had to calm down cuz I was gonna cuss this dude out...so when I got out the car, the look on his face told me that I had to go really easy on him...BUT...the first thing he asked was
"...Sir are you ok? I am so sorry!! I dind't realize you had stopped."
SO Got myself together...called the cops and let them handlie it and I made it home....somewhat sore but ok and luckily he was ok to drive home.
Thankful and BLESSED that this wasnt much worse than it could have been!!!
So.....ON TO THE PICS....

Get your vehicle checked out for damage just in case.
I had a similar situation where someone hit me, and originally I wasn't going to take it in because it looked fine, but the police officer encouraged me to get it checked out anyway.
I ended up needing a whole new bumper b/c there was some damage I couldn't see, and some new taillights because the force of the other car cracked them (which I hadn't noticed either).
Then again, I have a car and your SUV is a bit higher up so that probably saved it a bit from damages.
And mmMMMmmMmm Chick Fil A! That makes me wants some chicken strips!

Glad you are uninjured - follow TX Princess' advice and just make sure everything is okay with your car.

That happened to me too about damage you cant always see. I was rear-ended by a lady changing radio stations. The front of her car looked like the car in these pictures but my car looked fine. Dad thought it looked fine so we never took it in..until it started making a funny noise each time it rained. Water getting up around the muffler was causing horrible vibrations because there was a small kink in it from the wreck. Since we didnt take it in after the wreck, it wasnt turned in so we had to pay out of pocket to fix it.

The fact that you could slide that comment in here in a situation where myself and another person could have been severely injured or killed says volumes.
Thanks.

I agree with everyone, get the car checked out. I had a similar accident a few years ago. They ended up having to replace the bumper even though nothing looked wrong! Make sure you also get checked out by a doctor! You never know!

Glad it wasn't more serious. Definitely get yourself checked out, as well as your vehicle.
Also..maybe it's just the insurance law person in me, but I wouldn't necessarily post pictures or too much detail about the accident online.

Thought about it because it's not like was I dying or heavily injured so I am going to see my PCP in the morning.
I am trying to not be one of those sue-happy people that is trying to take this kid for nothing that he has...but I will get my doc to check me out.

Glad you are not seriously hurt (that's "you" plural - you and the other driver).
I have both been there and done that. Connecticut drivers suck. 
You could have whiplash - sometimes it isn't immediately evident, but you may be feeling it tomorrow morning.
Make sure your adjuster sees your car before you have ANY work done. I can pretty much guarantee you that you'll need a new bumper - bumpers typically protect you in collisions where your relative speed is < 5mph, and just by looking at the pictures of the other car, I can tell you the other driver was going faster than that.
Take care.
