ARRRRRRG!!! My sister hit both cars in the yard!!

I do alot of driving everyday and do my very best to avoid the bad drivers on the road. I never thought that the cars would get hit at home.
Last night my sister(17 yrs) was parking the cars in the garage while my dad watched her. Both cars were parked facing each other on the side of our driveway which is an incline. She reversed the 97 GXE up the incline so she could clear the 95 SE and then while going down the incline to the garage she seemed to release the brake or something and the right side front of the GXE slid across the right side rear of the SE. My dad said he didn't expect her to move so fast in that tight space. A little paint came of the SE and well ended up on the other car. Some compound and polish should fix the GXE...the SE will need a little paint.
Things could have been worse but I was still mad...I knew she was upset about it so I didn't bother to yell or anything. Tomorr...today I will have to check it in the daylight to see how bad it really is.

Lesson learned....do not let your sister park the car

don't use rubbing compound that stuff. you'll dull the paint. use a clear coat paint cleaner like meguiar's clear coat body scrub or paint cleaner. the strongest thing you should use is a scratch remover like scratch x

Here are a the pics of the damage on the 97 GXE ....as I said, it wasn't that bad but I still want to hit something. My brother said it sounded like a piece of cardboard dragged below the car when they hit.
My other sister cleaned off most of the white paint with some wax. I just did the finishing touches this evening. I'll have to inpect the SE when my brother gets back from school. As much as I want to get back at her, I won't post up her pic

This mark came off without a trace


Not sure how to fix this one...might need some epoxy or some kinda filler and some silver spray paint. It doesn't really show so I may leave it as is for now.


Some dents

Forgot this one.
This is where it was before she decide to park it. You can see the front of the white car on the bottom left of the pic.

Bad Driving experience

B4 i got my Maxima my sister begged me to teach her how to drive a manual. BIG MISTAKE. She was doing fine till she started the truck. We were driving well should I say jumping along and she is freaking out then we go around the corner a huge as* 18 wheeler is comming at her and she freaks and cuts the wheel and puts it into 2 from 4 <---- why she did hhtis I will never Know. She almost ran off of a 300- 450 foot cliff instead she cut the wheel hard back the other way and ran into the rock wall on the other side of the cliff. I jumped out and inspected my truck it was f'd up the radiator was busted body damage was horrible. She was only doing about 10 - 15 mph when she hit this so we werent hurt at all. I was sooooo ****ed she was crying and tried to tell me my yelling was what caused her to wreck so I decided to walk home about 2 miles away. I just threw my cell phone at her and said call somone to tow this home and left her there ....... yeah that was mean but she has never asked me to drive my maxima !!!!!!!!!!!

that's what i thought...until i had to go stay with my cousins. Thank goodness she's one of those that picks up real quick. Learnt how to drive a 5speed within a week of her first try, at 16. Now she's the devil. Race anything with wheels in her itty bitty civic. Guess she got that from her cousin and brothers.

Yeah my sister almost did worse. She backed the side of my dad's crv along my mom's new van. Then instead of hiting the brake she hits the gas and takes her hand off the stering wheel and almost hits a tree in the middle of our yard. The tree is about 20 feet from our driveway too. She had her license only a couple months. Thats one reason why I have full coverage and park in the street. She also leaves for school everyday and has to back out of the garage. Lesson women suck even worse driving in reverse, none of them get it yet. Nick

Didn't think this thread would come back up...I deleted the pics from cardomain.
My sister did the same thing. When she first hit, she stopped and before my dad could tell her what to do....like turn fully away from the other car....she just released the brake and drove straight into the garage, obvious causing more damage than if she had waited. The damage isn't noticeable now but it could have been alot worst.
I don't like to generalise since my mom and other sister drive great and hopefully my sister's accident was just lack of sleep or something . It's funny when I hear my mom or sis say "I'm sure it is a lady driving" when they get bad drives from ppl on the road.

Geezzzz...

There's no telling what I would have done if that happened to me. Bravo for not going on a rampage.

When I was first looking at cars I decided to drive stick not only for how fun and wonderful it is( and how much ladies love it), but also for the purpose of only my dad and myself would be the only ones to drive it. My mom is scared to death of it and my sis....is..well..not "vehicle compatible" -- so i am basically the only one who drives my car, which keeps it out of harms way--except when my friend gets tired of his prelude and wants to drive a man's car

Anybody can do something stupid to the car but we usually do it because we **** around alot. Chicks do it because they are scared to drive.
