...unlucky for some, devastating for me!

driving to college, and a french guy pulled out infront of me, bye bye headlight, bonet, wing and bumper, if it had been much harder it would hav punctured my big £80 battery!

old dan,

not to worry, i hope you werent in the sj!
today, driving back from work, on my only form of transport (yamaha step thru) i cam e round a corner to see a lad in a gold fiat punto careering onto my side of the road, with his rear wheels overtaking his front, i crapped myself and pulled in as much as i could, the lad driving managed to steer out of the skid, to be thrown into another skid in the opposite direction, this skid continued until he was facing the wrong direction, with both wheels firmly bent around the curb,

I had been where he crashed 10seconds earlier, woooohooo

any way i stopped and helped him change his buckled rear wheel and saw him on his way, he seemed a nice enough kid, he didn't seem to be going that fast and the look on his face throughout the skid was priceless,

I know its not as good as dans story but i guess my life isn't as exciting

Luke

fortunatly not in the SJ!!!!! just the mighty mitsubishi carisma, have been to the doctors and i have mildwiplash, and my car is a definate write off as it will be an uneconomical repair as the passangers wing is about 6" shorter than what it started life as!

but on the plus side i get to go car shopping, and may get myself a courtasy car for a while :lol:

but unlike the last accident there is a fair bit of damage to the other car as both the passangers side doors are caved in, and it was a brand ne corsa!

these things clearly come in threes then. My missus got rear ended at 30 by some woman in a polo whilst sat totally still. She then proceeded to get out and say "oh sorry i wasnt looking!" her micras written off and shes now driving round in my anus.

It was well funny trying to teach her to drive it last night. She just couldnt grasp the fact you have to boot it just to keep up with traffic.

Shes got mild wiplash and is gunna try claim 2.
