Car accident.
By Colinwarrior on 17/01/2009
So I was driving my friend home from college, kay? We had driven for like 2 hours. When we were half a mile from her house, I slid off the road around an icy corner on a dirt road and hit a tree. Fortunately, my truck is a beast, and we were not injured. I only have some cuts on my face and hands, and I banged my leg up pretty good. We had to walk in -15 F degree weather(-26 C) to her house. As far as damage to my truck goes: Driver and passenger side windows busted out, windshield busted out, roof caved in, hood bent up, front bumper+lights+grill royally fucked up, front right tire fucked up, and a few side panels have some damage. Overall, the damage could have been worse. As far as I can see, the chassis, axles, engine, and other important components were not damaged.
So, my night kinda sucked.
Edit: I forgot to mention..several people drove past us too. They slowed down, clearly saw my friend and I still in the car, but didn't bother to stop and help. Only in America, eh?
RIP babe. (maybe?)

Counts your blessings Colin.
That could have gone much worse.
It sucks though. Hope its not too fucked up.
That temperature fucking sucks.
Trust me when I say I understand your pain.

That's horrible to hear that people drove past and didn't stop to help.
But glad to hear no one was seriously injured =)

Glad no one was seriously injured; sucks about the truck though I hope it works out with your insurance.
By Mickey on 17/01/2009
Glad it wasn't worse Colin, and I'm glad you're OK.
As for those idiots that drove past without doing anything, they should go die in a fire tbh.
By Pazenon on 17/01/2009
Your truck could be replaced, unlike your soul. Good to hear you're fine.
By Groedius on 17/01/2009

You are okay that is what is important honey.
<3
By Toshortofnam on 17/01/2009
Like they all said least your ok lol
Could of been way worse
By Quikdrawjoe on 17/01/2009
Only in America do we have people crazy enough to kill people who stop to help and then on top of that we sue them.
By Mmangler on 17/01/2009
I am glad that you are ok. Is it possible that the people going by possibly called 911 to send help. Since you walked in the sub zero, possibly not. Well anyway hope everything works out.

Lol, my level 88 woodcutting did not help me here.
Coming soon: before and after pictures of my truck! Stay tuned!
Edit:



You can see how I went in the ditch and flipped, causing the tree to smack right into my roof. It came within like 5 inches of my head. Scary stuff.

You can also tell that the frame is twisted a little bit, destroying any hope for repairs

RIP my poor baby..I love you
By His Lordship on 18/01/2009
Shit dude you were close to death judging by the dents.
Well, at least your passenger was.
By General199 on 18/01/2009
Good to see you are ok. To bad about the truck. Hope you and the girl are ok.

lol +1
Plus, going fast in snow is for idiots with small dicks. Is your pickup 4WD or RWD? No weight on back wheels = bad times.
By Groedius on 18/01/2009
From the state of your truck your very luck good to hear your ok mate
By Ubg-Fcbruges on 18/01/2009
Wow, u were lucky by seeing that car. Good to hear u 2 are ok
By Tezza Rulz12 on 18/01/2009
Whoa...Fuck Thats bad...
Thank god you're okay
By Mojohaza1 on 18/01/2009
lucky she was small son, i'd probably be dead if i was in that seat. glad u survived
By rachellove9 on 18/01/2009
Someone is blessing you, I'm glad your both alive. I hope the insurance company gives you a rental.
At least it's winter, she can't be blamed for distracting you in a tiny white tank top.

1. I was going 30 MPH. Not fast at all.
2. It is RWD, but with 4WD capabilities. I didn't have 4WD turned on though.
Lol Rach
