Bah. I bet it wouldn't happen that way for me.
I'd just be written a ticket, and told if I didn't like it that I could come to court.
Shit, if I were in Shenandoah County, freaking UFO's could come down from outer space, pick up a Suburban with their 70's style tractor beam and drop it on my damned car, in front of hundreds of witnesses with camcorders, while the cop watched, and I'd probably still be written a ticket for something. 'Failure to avoid extraterrestrial influence while driving' or 'being young, caucasian and male while operating a motor vehicle' or something equally ignorant.
Anyway Navin, the fact you're alright is the important part. Sure your neck doesn't hurt? I'm sure that Siantz and Kirk would love a call from you...

sucks dude, did the airbags go off? If not and you really do want it totaled, find a hammer!

haha newp - no airbags.. Dont think I'd like the airbag dust in my eyes..
The only reason I'd swap everything over into another roller is b/c I still want to do the civic thing. We'll see..
Mostly likely people have been telling me it isnt tottalled, but I'm gonna try to goto my bodyshop and see what they say..
you want it totalled? as chad said... get a hammer and set the airbags off.

:lol: I do this too. It's amazing, seems like MOST drivers are surprised when I go for it and get pissed off. :roll:
anyway, sorry about yor car!
i'd rather not total my car, risk injury, or risk being found at fault for an accident... for those reasons i wait for everyone to finish turning before i turn right on red.

Dunno if it is technically lying, she might actually thought she had a green light.
I'm just glad the witness was able to back up my story, a 19 year old kid + roomate's word I think is less beleiveable to cops than some 59 year old lady and her daughter..

what? It's not your fault you got in it the next day and they just 'happened' to go off...
Damn, what are they teaching you kids these days.

Make sure you get full value for the car. Click here for some insurance tips: http://mmsports.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1004 My dad has a contact with BB&T in the insurance claims division and he gave us some good tips for getting the value of your car raised. (It's like the 10 reply on the page).
Sorry dude. I feel for you. My Acura was wrecked like 2 months ago and still hasn't been fixed. Good luck.

On the flip side of this, I am constantly honking at dumbasses here in ATL to keep moving...they like to sit in the middle of the intersection (with a green!) and wait for the people making a right on red to proceed before making a left into the left lane. f0ckers!
Navin- I'm glad to hear that you're ok, man.

Indeed. As I have previously stated... It burns me up that the majority of women drivers give us all a bad name. Especially stupid byatches in SUVs and minivans.
That is all.
Wow I NEVER thought I would hear a woman say that. *applaud*!
My ex-gf used to FLIP THE FUCK OUT if I ever mentioned anything about women drivers. I'm not a 100% perfect driver by any means, but honestly about 90% of the time I see someone doing something questionable on the road it's a woman.
