Got nailed by a honda civic tonight/early am
 
Before i talk about this, im not asking for sympathy or anything, just figured id share what happened late tonight.

So im in my z28, omw home from my bouncer job in north wildwood around 3:25 AM and i stop at the Dennisville Wawa (8mins from my house) i get some milk and 2 tastycake apple pies. i leave the wawa, theres nobody behind me whatsoever. as im driving down the straight piece of road, i see headlights in the distance, no biggie. then im like 1000 feet from the rt 47/347 traffic light and i have to make a left turn, so i signal (its a double line, no passing as well) i look in my rearview mirror and see headlights swerve to the left like they were going to pass me, so i audibly say f**kin jerk- before i could finish with the "off", they lost control and nailed my car on the rear driver side quarterpanel and bumper, kinda like a pit manuever. (approx 350am time of accident) I hear a sickening smash and next thing you know, im spinning out. put the clutch in, got on the brakes and countersteered but since they hit me so hard, it was past the point of no return so i cut it back the other way and kept my ride on the road. luckily there was no oncoming traffic bc i wouldve probably been hit head on.

i was going to call 911, but I saw that there was a volunteer fireman already there on the scene. he was on his way home, he actually witnessed the whole thing. he estimated the honda was going approx 90mph when they passed him. another car stopped, and then someone asked if i was drunk, im like "WTF!!!? NO! IM THE ONE THAT GOT HIT! Maybe you should ask the people in the honda that question!" im pretty sure those 2 girls were drinking before driving. i mean how do u lose control on a straight road? all of us walked away unscathed, i called my insurance company and gave them all the info. My car is banged up, but not bad enough where i couldnt drive it home. The hondas rear bumper fell off, it looked like forza 3 out there. Ill get pics later today in the daylight

that sucks ron! no one got hurt so thats cool.

BigRocsFirebird 07-24-2010 05:26 AM

Damn I wouldn't be able to stay cool but I guess if its 2 girls you can't really beat them up. As long as your fine that's good

Blacdout96 07-24-2010 07:27 AM

So.....you didnt call the police?

NjbadSS 07-24-2010 09:04 AM

Which car were you driving? Glad you are okay, at high speeds things could have gotten ugly real fast

ljstella 07-24-2010 09:19 AM

I drive through that intersection almost every day to and from work... are there still pieces of car out there I should look for when I go past?

JL8Jeff 07-24-2010 09:27 AM

That sucks. Why do people have to be so stupid!

Slow-V6 07-24-2010 09:58 AM

Speeding! At least you are okay!

Blacdout96 07-24-2010 09:59 AM

Ron, did you have a roid rage, turn green, and then pick the civic up and throw it in the woods? :rofl:

maroman88 07-24-2010 10:19 AM

thats sucks! glad ur ok! wat car were u in?

Fleetwiz 07-24-2010 10:24 AM

Glad you are OK....

98tadriver 07-24-2010 10:32 AM

oops i left that part out. i was in the z28 :/ The accident happened on the southbound end of 47/347. if youre heading north on 47, itd be approx 1000feet before 347/47 traffic light. look for a few hundred feet worth of skidmarks lol. the volunteer fireman who was on the scene called it in, cops, emt, and more volunteer fireman showed up. I shouldve stuck around to see if the girls were going to get arrested, but i just wanted to get home. I dont know how i didnt flip out, i kinda told myself it wouldnt help the situation, so i was pretty cool, but definately angry. another thing that helped a lil was the fact that there was at least one other witness that saw how fast they were going. its 100% their fault

It's always better to stay level-headed in situations like this. If the other person wants to be aggresive let them be the a-hole with all the witnesses around. I think you've done all you can do for now.

NastyEllEssWon 07-24-2010 11:20 AM

dude, glad youre ok man. christ that sucks, that z28 is, well was, a beauty. that sucks hardcore. take it easy today...maybe get a pizza :nod: but damn man. not cool at all. i hope they pay dearly and no underlying injuries surface a few days later.

Featherburner 07-24-2010 12:06 PM

Sorry to hear, Ron. Glad you weren't hurt.

sweetbmxrider 07-24-2010 12:08 PM

holy **** man! good to hear you are fine. thats great there was a witness who saw everything and can back you up if it goes to court. hope everything works out for you.

98tadriver 07-24-2010 12:39 PM

after doing some thinking, i believe they were passing all 3 of us at high speed ON A DOUBLE YELLOW LINE, saw my left blinker come on, and then tried to get back behind me and thats when the sideswiped/pit maneuvered me

maroman88 07-24-2010 02:12 PM

wow that sucks!

JerzLT1 07-24-2010 02:47 PM

were they hot? ;)

DaSkinnyGuy 07-24-2010 02:52 PM

I remember that traffic light by your house you have to be drunk to crash there well glad your ok it could have been a head on hit or t boned

r0nin89 07-24-2010 02:55 PM

Your back hurts right? Noone questions when your back hurts when its 2 drunk bimbos that smacked ya :mrgreen:

At least its all body damage. Sounds like it could have been ALOT worse.

Frosty 07-24-2010 02:56 PM

Glad you're OK man....sucks that they'll total that car out :(

When do you pick up the police report? It'll tell you if they got arrested.

sweetbmxrider 07-24-2010 03:43 PM

**** man, i guess it could be worse but that quarter damage sucks.

98tadriver 07-24-2010 05:46 PM

i was thinking the same thing. good thing it was that late, otherwise you'd see pics with heavy front end damage and i'd probably be banged up as well. the girls were cute, i shouldve got their digits haha. i should have the report on monday. the insurance estimator guy hasnt shown up yet but he did call earlier and said they didnt forget about me. and yeah, its pretty crazy how the spoiler/hatch are ok lol
