need some advice..

So a couple of days ago I was drving and slid on some black ice and I hit the median and spun out into oncoming traffic at like 45+mph. My front bumper came loose, no real damage other than that. but now my car is pulling VERY hard to the right. It gets even worse when i get over about 30 mph. What do you guys think I should do to have this fixed?

Get it on an alignment rack and see what they say.

Some people either don't have, or can't afford a garage/ Daily Driver/ beater car.. It's most likely your alignment, it'll cost you about $70 bucks to get the alignment checked/ fixxed. And they will check it for more problems when they go to align it.

Good luck, and I hope your baby is ok!

I'm betting you've damaged or broken something. Possibly bent a tie rod. Fix the damage, don't drive on it till you identify it and determine if it's safe to drive or not. Usually a severe pull is NEVER safe to drive on.

thanks for all the help guys, Im going to get it checked out in a couple of days. my front right tire has a leak and is loosing air slowy, so that is part of the reason why it is pulling.
