Last night, leaving work, I drove out of the driveway. I was turning, driving roughly 20mph when I heard something snap.

Stopped, looked, and saw the driver's side sway bar link broken in half.
I will post some pics, as there seems to be a lot of cristalization within the fracture.

Driving impressions...using kayaking terms, the initial stability is considerably worse. It takes very little cornering force to load up a side. Secondary stability is still ok, given my springs are relatively stiff.
