Title: This is why I hate asshole drivers! Updated car is back!!!
Post by: Mike on April 05, 2009, 05:05:56 PM
**Updated with Rehab (body shop) photos.
Driving down the highway today with the wifey. We are coming to a meger, and there is a guy riding my ass. He ends up passing me on the right where the road is one lane! About two miles down the road we see the guy in the right lane going really slow so I think nothing of it and go to pass him as my normal highway speed(65-70). When i'm about ten feet from this guy he cuts me off, and totally locks up his breaks. I did everything I could to save the car but we ended up spinning accorss both lanes and hitting the barrier twice. Once in the front and once in the back. We hit in the back so hard that the wheel is cracked on three of the spokes!! THE WORST FUCKIMG PART: The guy almost killed us, and didn't even fucking stop!!! Another car behind us pulled over, and told me and the police that the guy was driving like a nut, and cutting everyone off! Of course no one got his plate number so i'm screwed! If I ever see this guy again I'm probably going to get arrested! I could care less about the car but, to put the wifey in danger is over the fucking line. Any way see the pictures below. If waiting for the call from the insurance company to come and look at it, and then if it's fixable it's off to my uncles shop!

Dammit Mike, I'm really really sorry. That hurts to see!
Yes, I do believe drivers like that should be pulled out of their cars and shot on sight without trial.
But, due to my lack of defensive driving... I should be shot too :(
I'm glad you and your wife are OK. I don't know what kind of woman she is, but give her some good lovin. Your angry side might not be what she needs to see right now(?)

RI is a small state, so you're bound to cross paths and see this guy's car on the road again. When you do, give me a call and we'll break his knees together. Then we'll call the cops 2nd.

Post by: ibcnunv on April 08, 2009, 05:48:07 AM
Yo Mike life is a bitch and that is not directed at you. It's directed to that driver, there will be that next guy that is just loco and will serve that cold dish of ass wooping. That was a classic highway war move he did and I've been on a dumb asses tail that pulled the same shit.
Anyway, what I'm trying to get too is wish him luck and not harm because when he gets into an accident it's not going to be nice.

dude...thats the wifey. i woulda pulled some fast n furious shit and chased that motherfucker down til the car fell apart.
a few days ago i was doing like 5 or 10 mph over the speed limit on Rt 50. some dude was riding my ass so I put my reverse lights on (they're on a switch). he didn't fall back so i slowed down a bit to make him get the point.
so the guy passes me on the right and starts to cut right in front of me. except he forgot that he was towing a fucking BOAT!! so heres this asshole in his toyota tundra bout to slam his shitty ass skiff into my passenger side (where my girl AND best friend are sitting.
Knowing I wouldn't be able to stop in time I decided to make a point. Luckily for me there was a grass median with no curb. I drove with 2 wheels in the grass and 2 wheels on asphalt to pass the son of a bitch on the left, accelerating from about 75 MPH to 90 MPH and then kept going til I couldn't see the dickhead behind me anymore. My girlfriend was freaking the fuck out but my friend just commended my driving skills. LOL. The girl has a lot to learn.
i bet i woulda busted a rim if i had some Rotas.

Just yesterday I had to avoid 3 cars cuz they were being duoche bags and almost hit me. one was when I was changing lanes. I signal for 3 sec and started to move in and this truck just went blah. I had to swerve back and smash the pedal and go around him from safety lane and then I could go on to the freeway on ramp. Another was another lane change on the freeway. Same shit again, and third stupid lady wasn't looking when she try to pull out making a left from a road. I was driving towards her and knew she wasn't paying attention... Thank god my suspension response so fast now after the upgrade.

Got the car back from the shop it looks good aside from two dents in the roof which they missed. They are getting fixed monday as well as a little camber issue in the rear. Have a look at the pics and tell me what you think

I really really like how your headlights look without that reflector, i've always thought it didnt look that great, yet somehow on your car it seems to just flow.

Post by: Mike on May 01, 2009, 09:24:25 AM
It's going back on Monday there are some dents in the roof from the twisting force of the accident. The rear of the car has some pretty major camber issues that will also be corrected. That aside i'm pretty happy there are a couple of thing that could be better but, it will never be perfect after a crash like that.
Title: Re: This is why I hate asshole drivers! Updated car is back!!!
Post by: 05AccordV6 on May 01, 2009, 11:21:08 AM
Congrats glad you got it back. From experience, you may have bent some stuff in teh suspension up with an accident like that, did they replace any parts in the susepnsion? Could be a bent tie rod, etc. Any weird noises, creaks or rattles?
Visually, it looks like it never happened, just want to make sure you get this thing as close to 100%good as possible.

Post by: Mike on May 01, 2009, 11:23:00 AM
They did not change any suspension parts but, for some stupid reason they only aligned the front. They are going to look at the rear this coming week some thing certinly isn't right, and they are going to look until they find it! There are no noises they had to change the bearing, and hub but, nothing in the suspension.

Post by: 05AccordV6 on May 01, 2009, 01:14:40 PM
glad to hear, I wouldn't be surprised if the rear has a bent camber or toe rod, based on where the impact was.
Title: Re: This is why I hate asshole drivers! Updated car is back!!!
Post by: Mike on May 01, 2009, 02:13:08 PM
I wouldn't either, we will see what they find. If i'm not mistaken there are no adjustments that can be made to the rear with OEM equipment back there right?
Title: Re: This is why I hate asshole drivers! Updated car is back!!!
Post by: timot_one on May 01, 2009, 02:36:41 PM
There is a cam bolt on your lower tie rod for minute adjustments actually. If it's bent, you won't be able to get it back into spec though.

Thats good then they will have to replace things. I like new parts.
Title: Re: This is why I hate asshole drivers! Updated car is back!!!
Post by: 05AccordV6 on May 01, 2009, 02:59:24 PM
well if they have to replace, try and get them to replace it with an aftermarket option like Ingalls, that way you will always have the ability to adjust it later especially if/when you get a drop, probably run abou the same amount off money as new stock parts too.
Title: Re: This is why I hate asshole drivers! Updated car is back!!!
Post by: Mike on May 01, 2009, 04:15:53 PM
That is what I was thinking but the stock parts even from the dealer are fairly cheap. I will see what I can do.
