Isn't a Ford Focus a race car????

Just today I was in the left hand lane on a 3 lane interstate, and needed to start making my way to the right hand lane for my exit. About a mile and a half before the exit, I pass a girl on her cell phone and drifting into my lane. I continued past her, and then into the middle lane, where to my immediate right was a teenage girl who appeared to be texting. I passed her, but had to have her lane very soon to assure that I didn't get shut out of it by cars entering from a ramp just prior. So, once there I gassed it to create space until I came up to another vehicle. You guessed it, this guy was on the phone as well. All withing a mile and a half.

Glad you are OK Theresa. Hopefully you will get back the car you love, not a replacement MKIII, or anything else. It doesn't appear too bad, but who knows what can't be seen

Fuckin shitty, at least shes ok tho...hope the frames not tweaked.

 

[buckshotglass]

Sorry T.
I hope they total it in your favor somehow, you find another one, and combine the two for better.

 

[Poodles]

Let us know how you feel tommorow, most injuries don't show up immediately...

Cars can be replaced, people can't... but make the asshole pay either way...

 

[mattsplat72]

Shitty glad you are ok .at least you have an excuse to wide body the mr-s now

 

[strippedsup87]

dang dude....I hate seeing this type of stuff......

 

[GuNDeZZZ]

Glad to hear your alright DT, could have been alot worse...

As for the MR-S I know of a few for sale near my location, if worse comes to worse.

 

[honestabe]

I feel your pain Theresea, when my Supra got T-boned I didn't get a penny from the guy. Glad to hear you're ok. With any luck Damien will be back on the road very shortly.

He was very apologetic, admitted fault at the scene to the cop (dumb move on his part, good for us) and was ticketed for failure to yield.

ect...

I don't agree that it was dumb on his part, I think everyone who knows they were wrong should just man up to it when it happens. I don't think there's shame in admitting you made a mistake. It'd be a boatload of BS if he tried to fabricate some chain of events that would somehow implicate Theresa...

If everyone took responsibility for their actions instead of trying to pass the buck, the world would be such a better place to live.

I'm glad Theresa is ok.

 

[CTsupra]

Looks familiar... I freaking hate the MF'ers around here.

Bad news indeed. Glad you're ok, Theresa.

Agreed 100%! At least somebody else on here still has a conscious.

 

[DreamerTheresa]

Pretty sore today, though thankfully not TOO bad.

I slept horribly last night. And woke up at about 5:30 or so with severe pain in my shoulder, so I took more advil and went back to sleep about an hour later.

My stomach's not too happy with all the advil I've been taking.



Chiropractor appointment at 2pm. Yay!




Thanks for all your thoughts, guys and girls.

 

[Mk3runner]

ouchy eat some food.. cant expect your gut to feel well with advil without something to eat.

I take it the guy will be paying for this or still unknown?

Indeed, however folks it is only dumb luck that it was Theresa he hit, and because of that he's safe. When this was posted on another site Theresa visits, 1/2 the people replied to her telling her that she should have called an ambulance, claimed agony and then started a big discussion of how much money she could get out of this...

And unfortunately that is what you're likely to deal with these days. Theresa and I aren't like that, we're just as opposed to fraud as we are to force. So his admission of guilt in this case? Not a big deal, he's just going to have to pay for the damage he has done.

But a lot (the majority) will use it against him. I still stand by my statement that it is dumb. Is it the "right" thing to do? Probably, but it's still dumb.

 

[Mk3runner]

when things like this happen.. its called a accident for a reason. shit happens. sometimes you dont look before you move and here it is. things like this in my mind should be handled outside of court and such. if the car can be repaired then right on. but like its been said just because the dumbass wasnt paying attention and screwed up doesnt mean you need to take his house his cars his bank account.

the guy should own up to his fault and move on. Theresas injury would be the biggest gripe about. so hows the damage look?? I seen the pics but anything further? still before anything it flat out sucks this had to happen.

I agree that if it was dumb luck and the driver wasn't intoxicated or being w reckless than one should not seek financial gain out of malice or greed. That being said don't take the injury to the neck lightly. Neck and shoulder injury's have a tendency to get worse over time and they sometimes they need to be treated with physical therapy. At the least the insurance company should pay for your prescriptions and medical costs.

DT might try to up her ibuprofen to a therapeutic dose of 800mg ever 12 hrs. Valium, diazepam is a great muscle relaxant as well.

Best to you all.

Its good to see some people still have a conscious..I was backing out in my pickup truck when some idiot teenagers in daddy's mercedes ran into my truck in 2007..Fortunate enough for me, I had a phone that took videos..I took video of the damage and pictures..I had on video them calling me everything but a good christian, the taking a swing at me, and all the damage to their car at the time of the accident...you know those shit stains did more damage to the mercedes to the car to get more money? Then they tried to claim I injured them when they tried to attack me infront of my son who was no more than a year old at the time...I played the video for the judge, and thankfully the little shits got in trouble for insurance fraud

 

[Clueless]

I caused an accident a few years ago(was paying attention but couldn't see) and our insurance settled. Two years after the fact, the guy tried to sue me for medical and stuff but the judge laughed at him.

 

[arizzle]

sorry to hear but at least your ok and it wasn't any worse, it looks fixable thats the up side Goodluck.
