agreed.
I was drive down Shelbyville rd (local road in lou, ky for the out of state people) leaving from just moving into my new house. while heading towards a friends house i noticed a silver charger heading the opposite direction, he moved into the turn lane, anticipating him pulling infront of me i started to slow down, when it appeared that he was going to continue straight i proceeded to accelerate and thats when he turned, i locked up the brakes but we were to close, i t-boned him on the passenger side of his car crushing both doors. we actually hit so hard he spun 180 degrees.
Better?

You should have gotten out and then slapped those biatches, those guys just killed another endangered species of car.
But I am glad you didn't get hurt, but at least you are getting paid for that accident which could possibly go into another maxima?

and i may part it out may not. it depends on the insurance company. car itself wasnt worth that much but the stereo was and im pretty sure the motor and tranny survived. Ill keep you posted.
hopefully they will give me enough money to buy another max. Im in a rental car now, its an 09 altima and its a piece. Not nockin on Altimas (i owned a 93 at one point) but just on this particular car.

1 person and he was 17. he was talking about some truck coming up behind him and how he was trying to get out of the way and they (and I quote) "is 17 years old and not dumb enough to pull out in front of somebody like that". that is when i nearly lost it
Thanks! it was a sad day in the Bluegrass for me.

sucks that some dumb *** caused you to lose your ride. On the age thing, I actually wish things were like they are in some countries in europe, costly and labor intensive. You have to go through drivers training courses(which I have heard can involve training in dealing with loss of control) and it costs so much more to get a license on the money side too.

But time to get the next one and make it better than this one

Geez man, i'm sorry to hear about the accident, I understand BS young drivers, (although i'm only 19 myself)...it's common sense not to do anything like that....
People in general, need to learn to handle their cars and not the other way around...

Wow....sorry to hear about your accident! Some people in this country forget that owning and driving a car is a privilege, not a right.
That being said, I got bumped at a pharmacy drive through the other day by a lady with 3 hollering pre-teen kids in the back. I got out and there was no damage to either car as it was maybe a 1 or 2 mph bump. I told her that there was no damage and not to worry about it. She shouldn't have opened her mouth. She shrugged at me and said " I wasn't going to get out of my car anyways if I had not dropped my cigarette", then gave me the finger!
I shook my head and called the local police. She couldn't get out as there was a car behind her, not that it stopped her from flipping out that I was callin the cops. Within about 5 minutes (the police station was just 2 blocks away) a officer arrived, talked to us both, then cuffed her! Turns out that she was driving on a suspended license with multiple DUI offences and a couple of warrants out. She put up a bit of a fight and within a couple of minutes 2 more squad cars arrived on scene. I felt bad for the kids, but in the end, I felt that they needed to see this. You can't act like an irresponsible jerk and get away with it. Oh....and don't fight with the cops, they will taze your @$$!
