I got hit by a car today

[dirkdirden]

I got into one in Jan 2006

So I stop at a red light in Phoenix, az (worlds worst drivers). As I'm sitting at this stop light I see a truck flying at me in my rear view mirror, so I slam the gass but was too late. got hit buy a huge 350 dodge ram doing around 50.

now it starts to get good. The guy driveing the truck is bleeding out of his head all over, has a very obvoius broken arm and you'll never belive it.....yep still holding on to his beer.

Now it Gets even Better. The cops show up rather quickly about a minite. The guy who hit me starts to run, and the cops just watch him run away. I was VERY MAD screeming go get that jackass who hit me, the cop says " let him run we have his truck".

NOW IT GETS EVEN EVEN BETTER. The guy was an illigal imagrant from mexico, no insurence in the truck, and the guy never was caught, and even if he was caught nothing I can do becuase he's not an amercian. Cops wouldn't pay for anything even though they watched the driver quickly stumble around

Good thing I had full coverage, but still had to pay 500 for the deductable.

p.s. Jetta's are very good cars for safty, his truck was distroyed and so was the driver, but My car had a smashed bumber and trunk and thats it, and I didn't get hurt at all.

I feel close to getting into a wreck any time I try to cross the twice daily intersection between home and school.

*especially* when there's people facing me trying to turn left. And I try to edge around a car turning right between us, but they do the same thing and I have to stop before I pile into the side of them.

I've been in three wrecks I think. Twice was guys rearending my mom and once was when a van shot off the interstate exit ramp without looking and piled into the side (my side;o) of the blazer. I've never been hurt from one though.

I was in a car crash ten years ago. Still have scars from it on my left arm. Anyway, yeah. I'm a totally safe driver, as I haven't been in a car crash when I was driving.

Oh jeez, man!!


Is the car alright?

HAHA! Yamaneko. I'm sorry that happened Pureghetto. I hope you have insurance. Anyway, my mom was in a car accident a couple of years ago. What had happened this man was driving on this really low lit road, and hit a deer which made his car go out of control. Well, my mom was coming in the same direction and he ended up flipping over my mom. He crashed into a ditch or something. But it was already fatal, because when the car flipped he fell out of it. The moral of this story is stop trying to be cool and wear your freakin' seat belts.

>>> I just get hit by flying objects.. since I dont drive, I dont know about car accidents, when i was little I used to cross the streets recklessly but i never got hit..

[Peegee]

a) draw a diagram illustrating the accident
b) estimate the distance PG was from the pickup truck in front of him
c) using any researched information involving relevant variables, attempt to estimate the velocity of the Pontiac at the time of collision
d) bonus question: justify asian pride

That's something only an azn can do!

I remember years ago when I was going back in the car from France. On the motorway, there was this upside-down car with loads of beer cans littered around it.

Chinese drivers are crazy. To them, traffic rules are more like guidelines. I know, because I've taken cabs in Beijing.

Unfortunately I have not been in a fatal accident as of yet. I intend on tailoring my appearance towards achieving a colourless look ie. grey suit and dyed grey hair, that will make me indistinguishable on some bleak Sunday morning as I cross the road and hopefully I will be mown down. I improvised a little poem about it. It's pretty amusing :


Grey walks
A phantom in motion
Steel and chrome connects with bone and sinew
Grey crumples
Red spreads in a hot pool on cold tarmac
Fade to black
Unseen, unheard.
