What the fuck though, how much of an impact was it?

Car is covered in sprite

Perfect time to head over to /g/ and buy a xiaomeme meme note 3 pro for the low price of 150-200 shekels to the chinks for a superior phone.

Shit like that is why people keep fist size car rocks in the center console.

I keep a spray bottle of liquid ass in my car.

Get that on someone's cloth seats and their vehicle will smell great until the end of time.

yeah kek, it me

I guess I've posted that car a few times in the last couple of days,kinda wanna post pics of the carnage but kinda don't

but damn I'm glad the first-gen airbag didn't go off I coulda had my face fucked up or something

The collision was to the passenger's side front quarter/door, and the impact of my right knee hitting the center console fucked it up really badly, still have a lot of problems with it

Miata was packed FULL of camping shit and things of that nature, had a '92 Accord Coupe with 4 friends in it following about 20 minutes behind me, so they picked me and all of my/our shit up and we soldiered on to New Mexico. Worst car ride of my life, incredibly sore all over, stuffed in the back seat with the footwell completely occupied, as a 6ft tall male. Needless to say it was a depressing as fuck road trip, but the week in NM there wasn't a minute where I wasn't completely shitfaced or otherwise fucked up on various drugs so it was def an interesting grieving process

not really relevant but had to share i guess idk

Throw shit at my car and you're getting a soda can grenade.

I always have two cans with me now kek

Never drive with furries. NEVER. In fact, run them over like the animals they are

Why would you brake it's just a possum?

this, also did you even check your mirrors before braking for opossum? Because that's how stupid people make other people dead.

I offered to fix the Outback up (only needed a hood, rad, and P/S pump, easy to find since everyone drives Subies in Montana) but the car was actually his dads. Dad tried to sue me but had no case since he couldn't prove negligence.

Had I taken the MX-5 that night, I'd probably have been in the hospital.

>Dad tried to sue me
After you offered to fix it?
What a cunt.

Yeah. I nope'd the hell out and told my friend and his dad they were on their own since the dad had basically declared war.

The sad bit - I'd already sourced out the parts and was ready to go buy them, but then the guy's parents started calling me and sending weird messages on facebook. Oh well.

I even offered to buy the thing for $500 so I could just fix it myself. I wound up buying my own Outback just a few months later because of my respect for anything that can tank a deer so effortlessly.

Deers are complete shitcocks. I understand the whole thing about them getting blinded by head lights and stopping because they can't see, but I don't know why the fuck they casually will walk into traffic in broad daylight and just stare at your car like they're hoping to die.

The last time I picked up an autist I had to forcibly pull them out of the back seat of a corolla. There's not a lot of room back there, so they can kind of wedge themselves in like a fucking nightcrawler that won't come out of the ground in one piece.

The cops never showed up. He had my full name as an old highschool acquaintance.

My driving instructor would use any kind of animal that jumped into the road as an example "what if that was a human?".
Good days, good days.

I would check its colour before making a decision.

If you can't instantly differentiate between humans and possums you might actually be too retarded to drive

It's kind of hardwired into your brain

t. runs over cats, stops for pedestrians

If they are under the age of 18, yes

Otherwise it's their responsabilities and anyways he should of took down the furrfag and made her pay for the ticket

Betamale deserved it in the end

kekd

It's not about differentiating between humans and animals (we don't have possums around here; our wildlife is bigger).
It was about training your reflex of fucking stopping if something jumps in the middle of the road.

>runs over cats, stops for pedestrians
Now thats what I call edgy

Absolutely opposite here, was told absolutely not to react to small animals because sudden breaking/swerving in traffic easily ends up in greater tragedy than a dead rabbit

Deer are barely problematic when you compare them to class-A fucksticks like reindeer doing that exact same thing, just by the hundreds or a suicidal moose tackling you

My driving instructor always told me to run over the animal if there was any traffic or if braking could suppose a danger even if the road was empty.
Also it's a possum, not a fucking lynx in danger of extinction.

Because it's the driver's responsibility to make sure all his passengers have their belts on. Most first world countries work this way.

Land of the free....

I'm not against seatbelts, I even put mine on as soon as I get in the car, I'm against government over stepping their boundary and disregarding an adults free will.

This thread got comfy, bump

KYS you retarded fucks. I'm not gonna hit an animal without a good reason.

Of course I teach new drivers not to swerve for little animals in traffic, but we were in a completely empty rural road with a chance to evade it.

People see preventable deaths and ask why the fuck nothing was done to prevent it. There's nothing you can do to be more safe on a bike, but the fact seat belts can be installed in cars and the fact not using one will nearly always kill you in a decent collision means people will force you to use them.

Refer to the cop that said he's never had to unbuckle a corpse.

>be driving down street

Fucking squirell

Doesn't make sense I'm sorry
I live in a first world country and we shouldn't get blamed for someone else's idiocy

As a driver, it's YOUR responsibility to keep your passengers safe, no matter how fucking stupid they are.

That means telling them to put on their seat belt or they aren't driving in your vehicle.

yeah hindsight is 20/20 as always

My following distance is usually very generous, but I was just coming out of Colorado Springs and it got really dense pretty suddenly

The tires were in OK shape, just shit-tier Chinese tires

I've come to terms with the fact that there was just too much momentum involved for me to save it and even good tires wouldn't have helped much, it came around way too fast, I literally initiated inertia durifto at freeway speed and there was only a second or two between "oh shit I have to swerve back into the lane now" and coming to rest after slamming a car backwards

I guess it was my fault to some extent but eh whatever life's a bitch and then you die

>d-da belt will hurt me of I actually cwash ;_;
Holy fuck this is a worse meme than ecoboost.

are you 12 years old?

it is the driver's responsibility to ensure the safety of his passengers. If you were driving with your honey nd she wasn't wearing a seatbelt, if you get pulled over YOU get the ticket.

t. citizen of the USAyy

It's a possum, IS a good fucking reason, cityshit.

>every prius driver ever

Total faggots. You should have dragged him out and curbstomped his gook face into pulp.

haha I guess I don't blame the guy in front of me, hazard lights are a foreign concept here anyways

He swerved very violently, it was probably just as much of a surprise to him as to me

There's very few basketball americans here in CO, but for some FUCKING reason like 10 cars full of them were lined up along the shoulder, I guess they were traveling as a pack or some shit when the truck nig nog lost his wheel and they all pulled over. I would've been completely fine if the cars weren't there, but they were right on the edge of the fucking freeway, not even off in the grass a bit, so when the car in front swerved back and revealed them I was forced to cut hard left immediately after swerving right

The ticket was completely fucked up, I explained what happened to the complete hick meathead of a cop, and explained how with a low slung "wedge" front car like a Miata, the wheel would have either bounced off into oncoming traffic, or worse yet went under the car and flipped it or some shit

this was a fuckhuge wheel off a lifted truck btw, standing upright in the middle of the lane

So I chilled for a couple of minutes after giving the cop my info, he comes back with a $200 ticket and summons for the court 500 miles from my house, I ask him why the fuck I'm getting ticketed, and how avoiding a potentially much worse situation was careless -

"you're the only one that crashed"

so then I had to drive 6 hours to court after a couple of months, with full intentions of fighting this bullshit, but then I find out I would have to appear several more times before I even got a court date, and as a full time college student working 30h/w there was literally no way that was happening, so I got cucked into pleading guilty and taking a plea bargain

A rude awakening for me that this is in fact the USSR

pic related, this was after a lot of the cars had left, it looks pretty mild in that photo but the front of the miata was completely twisted to shit/obliterated

>ex-cop Crown Vic on nigger rims
>Shitty Malibu with black steelies

top kek that's just too appropriate

just to clarify, I'm not a racist /pol/tard, I know plenty of fine black people, but losing my car and it fucking up my life badly, to the point where I am severely depressed because of indirect consequences of it, because niggers were being niggers still really pisses me off

but yeah, these were your classic ghetto ebonics-shouting "niggers"

>just to clarify, I'm not a racist /pol/tard, I know plenty of fine black people

I am a /pol/tard.

I accidentally clicked this sub forum.

This is the first thing I see.

I'm offended, /pol/ is a board of peace.

BTW, crash was your fault. Cops deal with accidents every day, if you got a ticket it was deserved.

>Cops deal with accidents every day, if you got a ticket it was deserved.
>Cops deal with black people every day, if they get shot it was deserved

Which is obviously not true and for something like tickets I see even more room to be a discriminatory asshole, which a lot of cops are. Swerving at highway speed is pretty retarded but it seems like it really was accidental, he shouldn't have gotten fucked over it.

How does my age changes anything ?

Anyways everyone is used to wear a seatbelt, never had to tell anyone to buckle up

In France, we're not responsible of anyone above 18 years old, as long as you don't crash into a tree on purpose

I see, but why didn't the nignogs got a ticket too ? It's forbidden to park on a fucking highway especially this close from an accident I don't get it they are the dangerous ones

Laws are really fucked up in your country

Poor Miata

Do you have another car while waiting for the repairs of your Mazda ?

>Which is obviously not true and for something like tickets I see even more room to be a discriminatory asshole

If someone's shot by police they usually have a reason.

I'd wager its the vast, vast majority of the time.

Same with tickets.

>It's forbidden to park on a fucking highway especially this close from an accident I don't get it they are the dangerous ones

not in this country, the laws are fucked up indeed.
They were parked there before the accident, god knows why
As soon as the cops arrived most of them promptly scurried away


>Do you have another car while waiting for the repairs of your Mazda ?

Was literally a busrider for a month before the insurance company paid out, in most cases you would get a rental car during that time but you have to be 25 to get a fucking rental here, which I wasn't

The Mazda was completely totaled, extensive frame damage to the point where none of the panels on it fit correctly, and there were weird bends and creases all over from the entire car twisting

Replaced it with something more practical as winter here is not kind to these cars, but will be getting another Miata come spring

I remember you posted this before

Here we have wild dogs, cows, hoeses and deers in the rueal zones. From time to time a bear or two will just walk into traffic.
Kinda need to brake for most of these.

I got a dashcam because of this story, in case I ever came up behind this happening

I flung a deer into the air with my subaru and got zero dents. Was at like 30-35 mph tho

People with seat belts still die in car accidents. Just less
