D***IT!

Remember my topic about the ditch and my car? Well, this time it involves another car and a lot of rain....

I was driving along and it was raining. I wondered what kind of light was in this motorpool because it was all weird and angled. So I look over then back in front and the car in front has stopped about 35m ahead and I'm going around 35mph. So I slam on the breaks and... Well, you know the rain I mentioned earlier? Yeah... my car should have been able to stop just in time but it didnt. It just slid. So, the girl in that car panics when I rear-end her Civic and accellerates and hits another girl in a Mustang in front of her. I now have caused a 3 car accident...

So.... S***! **O*$IOUFHSIUGH (*R%NDY IOBG!@)R%@($& @!!@!!!!ONE ONE ONE!

I've only had my license for 3 months..
Geico will rape me up the butt with premiums....

Thankfully, I was only going about 20-15mph when I hit so I may be able to work somethin out with the parents because the girls go to my school.

Now: Pics err 1 pic.

That sucks man. Doesn't you car have ABS or would that not have mattered anyway?

Guy at my school has had his drivers license for about 1 year, has gotten into about 4 accidents. One he ran into the back of a parked bus. Atleast you didnt run into the back of a parked bus.

My friend is a horrible driver.

He drives drunk, he has trashed his own and his car and his parents' a few times and has made false insurance claims. If that isnt a bad driver i dont know what is. All this in less than 2 years of driving.

He might be my friend.. but i still dont think he should be on the road and he will get what he deserves if he gets caught.

Rambo_Medic · 09-17-2005, 03:24 PM

Dude, all I'm saying is that... I really hate driving now.

What state you in? I spun out on a road and slid backwards into a tree. Met up with my left wheel (and with enough impact destroyed everything behind it). Ran up like $3.3k in damage. :/ Got 4 points for it! In MA under $2k in damages is 2 points, over $2k is 4 points as I recall. Of course I tried getting everything replaced when this happened. Rather the adjuster was really happy to replace everything. Even got me a new bumper that was cracked from driving up a pile of dirt (don't ask). Of course the bumper sags on the side that had nothing to do with the impact!

I suppose I could call them and complain saying it was unnoticed damage (it's been like 6 months. lol) and needs to be fixed but that might not be such a good idea when I'm moving out of state for college and haven't mentioned brining the car with me...

Now you hit the girl infront of you but she drove into the car infront of her? That's her fault. It would be yours if you pushed her cars into the one infront of her.

If it's totalled get the least sporty, gutless car around car you can find. I can't tell what you had. I'd say Cavalier but it looks too long so I'm going to guess Sentra...but I really think it's a Honda? Could try a Nissan Sentra (pretty reliable, fairly safe, and not stolen often) or an older Subaru Impreza (cheap, comes with AWD on some of the earlier models, can make a helluva fast car with a couple thousand). Stay away from Honda which is safe and reliable but they have a high theft rate. Don't bother with an alarm on an old car. Insurance doesn't give a shit when they're old cars. You could try finding a Defensive Driving school (not the same as Driver's Ed.). Some insurance companies will give you a discount when you complete one.

If you want a car that won't be stolen, get one with a little rust or dents. Sure it lacks some sex appeal for the ladies, but you can make that up with personal charm. Old cars can also be a speeding ticket deterrent, the cop will probably not give a ticket if he thinks the ticket costs more then the car
