I'll speak with experience for trying to advoid things at higher speed, over 55, you dont really have time to think about what you are going to do, you just do it and hope for the best, Im glad to hear that you dad is ok, it suxs that the car got dammanged so badly but hey shit happens, and its just a car.

 

its like me hitting the rock that was in my lane, and a cop gives me a ticket for being too far lowered.

sorry for the loss, damn debris everywhr.

 

are you going to salvage the turbo? kkk turbo, right?

 

Hey Mike, glad your dad is ok. That must have been some scary shit. The car is replacable a life is not.

For everyone that said they wouldn't have swerved yet have never been in that situation you shouldn't talk. Get in that situation and see what you do.

 

Regardless of what everyone else says I am truely sorry to see such a beautiful car like that get screwed up that badly. Anyway I am glad to hear that your dad is OK.

P.S. cute license plate =D

 

boy, you sure don't like taking a dose of your own, do ya?

anyway, im glad your father made it out ok and he's doing fine. I hope everything works out with the asswad cop, too.

as for all these stories and the debate over whether to swerve or not...everyone's natural reactions are different and they vary from one situation to the next. I was on my way to school one day, doing about 70+ and a huge ass piece of rubber came flying off of the truck's tire that was in front of me...i had cars all around me and a cement barrier on my left side, no where to go..scared shitless, i kept going, protected my face with my arm and let it hit me. Thankfully, it only caught my bumper and screwed that up. Plenty of other times, I've had animals, even as small as a chipmonk, run out in front of me, and i swerve or slam my brakes for them...being the animal lover that i am. h:

Truth is, you don't know wtf you're going to do until you're in that perdicament. Ok, so you may have swerved one time for something, but that doesnt mean you'll do the same thing again.

 

I dont see whats the problem with that. Someone's just had a lotta sh*t happen to them and showing some respect and saying "I'm sorry about your [father's] accident" doesnt cost you anything.

Saying "hahaha he shoudl've done this that blah blah" is just an assh*le thing to do.

 

so, apparently, you've never had a personal run-in with FB on here, have you?

 

:eh:... why?

 

haha, guess not.

My point is this...what everybody in this thread has done (ie: coulda woulda shoulda etc etc) is exactly what FB likes to do when people post similar topics.

that is all. I'm out of here before shit hits the fan..just had to get my $.02 in
