Ram won.

Got Into Double Accident Tonight
I was driving my freinds 2001 Pathfinder on the 78E trying to get over so I could get off at my exit. I slowed down slightly so I could get over and the Dodge truck behind me rear ended the Pathfinder. He gets over into the center divider lane and I start to get over when a red car lets me in shortly after. As I'm changing lanes into the fast lane on my way to the center divider lane some crotch rocket doing 80+ side swipes me on my drivers side, sending him sliding into the center divider lane. All the bikers oil spills onto the ground in the center divider lane, and he is ok, but the bike is toast. The Dodge that rear ended me had a minor scuff on the top of his bumper, but the poor Pathfinder took 90% of the damage. I was not at fault for either accident, and everybody is ok (including the idiot biker). Some 1stLt. saw the biker get on the freeway driving like an idiot and watched as he side swiped me. Needless the say the only thing on the drivers side of the truck that's ok is the passenger door and the rear wheel, everything else needs to be replaced or repaired and repainted.

Poor Pathfinder.









Oh yeah, I bought a nice Samsung Trace after I was done dealing with the police.

The biker may have been stupid but at least he just side swiped you... 12 inches over would have been a whole different story.

I wasn't sited. The biker and the truck were both found to be at fault, and even admitted it (well, the truck admitted fault and a Marine 1stLt. that let me over and watched the bike get on the freeway and sideswipe me said stated that I was not at fault, and both cops agreed with that). If he had been a foot to the right he would have bounced into traffic and gotten ran over. Luckily that didn't happen and I aimed him at the center divide where he could slide without being ran over by traffic. The biker was sited, not sure what for though and I'm not sure about the truck. I believe the biker was a Marine because I remember hearing about the 1stLt. that let me over and was a witness chewing his ass out royally for being extremely wreckless.
