Default I got into an accident

I spun out going on an onramp after hitting some runoff water. Knocked over a sign. My passenger door is ****ed.

God I hate this shit. Pics to come.

Also eariler today I almost got broadsided by an Integra going 60+ mph running a red light thru the intersection, I was still shaken up about that then I get this ****ing shit.

I think I'll go shoot myself right now.

Must've been 50 h:

It was a right curve....so initially I spun out clockwise then attempted to correct it, thus going counterclockwise 270 into the "yielding onramp" sign.

I spun out in my miata once, it was dry traction though. h: I was going 50, making a long right turn, at the end of the corner, I felt the rear tires lose traction and the car wanted to turn the right to hit the curb. So I countersteered and then I ended up in a 180. :eek3: The car stopped then, luckily I didn't hit anything.

I think that happened to me because my tires aren't very sticky. :sad: But I figure if I had stickier tires, I could probably corner at that speed or even faster but if I mess up, I'd probably end up in a higher speed crash.
