Pics of my car crash

[gigdy]

I was comin home from spring break yesterday morning doin 55 in the middle of a 3 lane highway when an suv doin atleast 80 tried to cross 3 lanes and instead hit me from behind. I fishtailed twice then hit a wall. He ended up sliding by us on his side. 4 ppl in the car im fine 3 taken to the hospital 2 released neck strain 1 has a collapsed lung, bruised lung and fractured rib. Dont know anything about the other guy.

:shock: Glad you are ok!

Your stone chip protector did not do too much lol

[No.1]

Unlucky mate... at least you survived.. the car looks like shit though

[SilviaS15Cwest]

Good to hear you are ok. Any ideas on what your next car is going to be?

[SPEEDKILLAR]

Damn, but you seem quite happy about it( if its you in the pic)

one of your m8 seems quite injured...Blasted suv

[spd]

good lord, at least ur all escape

[hemi_fan]

I hate it when people cut all the lanes on the highway, if ur gunna speed, at least stay in the same lane or do it when its not busy... thats outrageous. Glad to see ur ok tho.

[DeMoN]

that looks pretty bad. I know if it was me who crashed I would be cursing against the 80mph asshole who did that to you.

[gigdy]

Good to hear you are ok. Any ideas on what your next car is going to be?

im gettin my dads old car its a 2000 mercury mountaineer with a 5 Litre v8

[SFDMALEX]

You gonna sue the other guy? What did the insurance people say?

[nchs09]

too bad about ur car... but think of the bright side, u wont be with that rice exahust anymore :)



seriouly, glad ur ok man, looks horrible, i bet u felt down after the accident :(

[SilviaS15Cwest]

Im sorry.

[coombsie66]

Shit man, glad u and ur mates r ok, nothing you can do in those situations, thats why i always make sure im the asshole goin fast behind people, nothing worse than gettin rear ended!!!!

[geekdiggy]

kinda serves you right for driving a cavalier with that kind of exhaust. no offense intended. what DID the insurance company say? that's definitely grounds for a real heavy ass lawsuit (how can a fucker hit YOU with all the open space on the road? idiots i swear) i'm a very gentle person believe it or not but if i were in your situation and were able to get out of the car under my own power i probably would have mangled the guy's head in with his wrecked engine pieces, fuck courtesy when the bastard almost killed you

[T-Bird]

that's not a cavalier idiota that's a Mazda 626

[geekdiggy]

dammit that's the second time i get owned in the past two days :| i should really pay more attention to detail next time. either way, i'm sure it looks better in its current form :wink:

[ibetipsy]

hey as a fellow newyorker where was this exactly. still though man IM so happy ur okay. seems the 626 took the impact well. hey hows insurance going? i mean im still waiting for my jetta to be paid for. god again im happy ur okay

[gigdy]

It was in tennessee actually on my way home from panama city. it happened on the the 19th so i dont even have an accident report yet. and ill admit the exhaust was a mistake. The onlt thing im surprised about with the damage is how my front left wheel broke when i hit the curb on the wall.

[Tomerville]

4 ppl in the car im fine 3 taken to the hospital 2 released neck strain 1 has a collapsed lung, bruised lung and fractured rib. Dont know anything about the other guy.


Wait, are the injured people, the ones in the SUV?

[VerderameJ]

yeah wheels breaking is a wierd thing. I remeber getting hit from the side in a car and having my alloy wheel crack as a result of the impact. Wierd thing to see...

[WhiteP]

Glad you're ok.. and I hope your friends will be ok too

[Ghostbat]

Cars can always be replaced, humans can't.

Glad to see that only the car is a trashed..

[BADMIHAI]

I'm glad you're O.K. I'm also glad someone put that fartcan out of its misery. :wink:

[ARMAN]

You was lucky, glad to see you're fine.

[husyk]

Sucks to be you dude, what a way to end spring break. Hope insurance pays up a lot of money.

[noosee]

:cry:
That hurts

[draak666]

I had just the same car before my current BM. It was my cruise car. That's basically all you could do with it, since it was a FWD diesel. :D And I must say: such a big exhaust looks quite nice under that car, it fits perfectly. :wink: Mine too got killed in an accident.

And what's all that shit about suing??? Over here the other guy's insurance company repays your damage and hospital costs, and that's that. You get repaid, the other guy gets a fine for the infringement, nothing left to sue for.

A collapsed lung, that doesn't sound too good. Was he wearing a seat belt? Anyway, good thing you survived.

[Volcane]

:shock:

Holy shit dude...that was a tough one...glad you're ok...better luck with your next car anyway... :wink:

[BACR]

Shit man that looks like it would have been quite traumatic. Glad you're ok though.

[dingo]

you do realise this thread was over a year old? How did you manage to drag it up?

[No.1]

At least he shows some concern.

And BACR, i'm sure he is fine now, after having a year to recover :P :wink:

[Vansquish]

This is why there should be some sort of heavy-vehicle license rigorous license test for people who want to drive SUVs or big pickups etc...etc...

[No.1]

BACR put up a link to this thread in "the worst crash you have been in" thread......so thats how it was brought back to life.... :wink:

Ahh.... nice detective work :)

[skituner]

sue the mother fucker who ran into you

[Daggernite]

I just read this entire thread not relising how old it was :?
arr well least hes ok :lol:

[5vz-fe]

Glad to hear that u are OK ...... SUVs are quite dangerous if the driver is an idiot.

[numerouno]

Holy fuck! your car's a wreck :shock: well at least you're ok :)

[Yablokov]

lol for sure man, you should of sued him.
i dunno how they do it over in belgium, but in usa, not olny do you get repaid for everything, you also have th choise to sue the other person for ever red bloody cent the he/she is worth... no joke.:P

next time that other guy that crashed into you can think twice about acting smock too smock on the road.

[ZfrkS62]

damn, thats pretty shitty man :( glad to see nohing other than the car got fucked up.

[pilone]

What the hell of luck.
Hope you're fine!

[gigdy]

Man this topic is old, but thanks for all the support. I never sued the guy cus i never got hurt and it wouldnt be worth it, but one of my friends did and got $50K
