    Default A look back on my driving history... O_o

    Well I was screwing around and decided to look at my photobucket... I was depressed to find a reminder of my driving history and how many nice cars I've wrecked... thought I'd share!

    '97 Mustang GT wrecked in '05. Going down a narrow back road too fast, came across a truck that wouldn't get over on his side of the road forcing me off the road into a ditch, causing me to flip multiple times. Traumatic brain injury, left side paralyzed for a month, seizure on impact, coma for three weeks. 6 months of therapy after the fact...




    Airbags effing hurt!



    '98 Eclipse GST Spyder wrecked in '08. Going down the highway extra tired from work, didn't notice the light was red... blew through it and t-boned an SUV. No major injuries other than a sprained ankle and bloodied face! Once again... airbags hurt.




    '02 Altima 2.5SL wrecked in '08. Going down the highway once again, not speeding and with plenty of distance between me and the person in front of me; all the sudden the van in front of me slams into the car in front of her. I slam on my brakes and quickly realize there are no antilock brakes... sliding into her.






    So yeah... terrible history, right? 3 cars totaled in 3 years... 2 totaled in the last 6 months. Horrible horrible, I don't know what's wrong with me. Looking back on all the cars I've lost makes me want to blow my brains out lol, considering I had liability on my Mustang and Eclipse and paid cash for both of them so was basically out of a car and the money I spent...

    So, I welcome the flames!

    Just pay more attention while driving. Sometime insurance could cost more than you could even expect. Glad you still okay and tell us the story.

    yeah, I loved that car, but having a pressuring (now ex)girlfriend telling you that you should celebrate your new paint job by being stupid does that to Rx-7s. My FB is faster in a straight line, but NOTHING in terms of fit and finish or handling or style of the TII.

    good news is that the entire 105K original mile TII drivetrain from that blue car was put into a 105K original mile black TII shell that had no engine, tranny or diff. So I killed one 105K mile TII and another lived, os it's not like there's one less TII on the road, just a black one instead of blue, same year and everything.

    Yeah I can only afford liability! Lol. It was $300 a month for coverage on my Altima... and that was before I wrecked that one (and I got ticketed for it too, since I was the last in the train).

    Thanks for all the comments though guys!

    And 87TII it sucks that you wrecked that car right after you got it painted! Most of my cars were stock so I was fortunate I didn't put much extra money into them... (except the Eclipse but let's not talk about that lol)

    Yeah, looking back at the picture of the blood all over the airbag kinda creeps me out. I was very lucky, doctors told my parents I was going to die and if I did make it 7% chance I would regain my left side of paralysis

    See I figure my luck is so bad in a car, maybe it'll be better on a bike.
