Default One less fbody :(

I was going down the road on Eastchase when I look up and the lane closed so I slammed on my brakes, rear end swung out and threw me across all 3 lanes of traffic and impacted a telephone right on the drivers door at 50-55mph

Some stupid ghettos *** MF'ers hit me from behind and got underneath my *** end, got out of the car threatening to kick my *** (any other time I would have taken them to the pavement, but **** them, my car is destroyed!). Obviously fine, then the ambulance gets there and they ******* act like their dieing. ghetto *** MF-ers trying to get free money when they are NOT hurt.


Jumped out the car with only cuts/bruises but was sent to the hospital for a possible ruptured spleen (luckily was just a torn muscle, "luckily". the metal bar in the door saved my ***.

SUCKS :cry

sorry to hear it man thats definitely no way to spend the new year!

A dumbass lady in a Grand Prix had a flat tire and was on the shoulder and then decided to pull back onto a 2 lane 65mph highway because she thought she could limp it back to the nearest town. Tried swurving around her but hit pretty hard on the passenger side, airbags deployed car's propably toatled, just waiting on the insurance settlement this week

Sorry to hear about it. Those pics really convey the damage. Just like the other members have been posting: the positive thing is that you walked away with only minor injuries.
