An SUV tried to make babies with my skittle...

Trinity · Post by **Trinity** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 1:02 am

then it found out it was gay.. pulled out and beat it. HATE CRIME I TELL YA!

anyways...

Friday night, I was hit by an SUV that ran a red light across the main road I was on. I remember ALL OF IT. From seeing the SUV... the usual trying to avoid it.. the airbags going off... etc. I got out of my car.. but I did not WALK away from this. I can't even walk on my own right now as it is.

i've only finally decided to put this on SRTforums and the other neon sites after a few days. Mostly feared putting it on SRTforums... but only cause of what people might of said. My ex said the worst thing that could possibly be said in this situation.. so anything people have to say now is nothing compared to it. (he said he was glad this happened.. and hopes I crash my other 1gn)

here's the polaroids from the scene.

then a few pics I took at the tow yard the day after.

the intersection looking north bound. I was coming southbound... the SUV that hit me was coming from "Rivers Edge Road" on the left of the photo.(my right when driving). My car stopped on that concrete square in the median.. after taking out a sign.

"damage" from sign

that battery is entirely out of place... but that strut bar is like "abstract art" now lol

his "good side"

his "bad" side

I have no idea where the fender is... or the headlight lol

from the back.

closer. thank god I didn't have a passenger.

and that yellow tint everyone seemed to hate. It had a purpose. There were no PARTS of glass from the passenger window in the car. Just rolled up pieces of tint with glass. I'm glad.. cause I really didnt need anymore cuts/glass in my face. It makes me wonder why all glass isnt at least coated in a clear layer of this stuff.

and a little video I made to sum everything up.

two days after my accident there was another in the same intersection. Only difference is one person didnt walk out of it alive. Now I feel 10 times more lucky that I did.

Sucks that this is the main road to my job and school so i'm gonna see it every day.

I dont think I can drive another neon really. I remember the whole thing.. so its just slightly traumatic even being in one... I dont even want to know how ill feel driving one. Gotta give myself some time.

not looking into getting another one anyways.

I wondered the same thing after this happened to my '02 (you can't tell from the pic but it was totalled) but I've had two since then. Like you said, give it some time.

Hope that you mend quickly.

Wow. That really does suck. I'm sorry you had to/still are going through that. Mend quickly, and give everything some time.

Glad you weren't more hurt.

Yes absolutely, it will take time... and it will get better in time.

I had a serious accident several years ago where I was clipped by a semi-truck in the winter. It only takes seconds but the event can alter your life forever.

I hope your injuries don't turn out to be life long injuries and that you heal quickly.

Take care of yourself Yo!

I hope you have a full and speedy recovery. I'm sorry to hear that you have to go through this. Get well soon.

lambostealth · Post by **lambostealth** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 12:18 pm

Ouch, sorry this happened, I have never experienced a car accident, so I can't possibly know what you are going through, or have gone through.

Get better, hope your Ex gets hit by a truck and dies on impact.............J/K.....but seriously................J/K..........seriously.

Oh yeah, dibs on the transmission.......

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 2:31 pm

holy shit! your ex is a piece of shit to wish more of this stuff upon you. glad you are not worse off, too bad about the car though. i assume its totalled?

i hate to be the kind of person that jumps on a thread like this, but if you can get ahold of parts off the car, let me know what you want for that SRT rear bumper...

hopefully your recovery is quick and things start going your way...

and now that TNK has broken the ice about the parts car....how about them wheels?

Trinity · Post by **Trinity** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 3:58 pm

the SRT wheels... TWO of them will be up for sale if I can get my hands on two stock aluminum wheels. I can take anything I have a stock part for.

the tail lights I think my buddy dave has dibs on.
ill have ONE clear corner.. iunno... might just keep that lol

clear third brake light...

MAYBE the rear section to the SRT exhaust... MAYBE the whole thing I dunno what I can get off.

my GPS will be up... RB4.. unless my buddy Keith has dibs on it now. hes in iraq so iunno.

I cant think of anything else...

i'll find out tomorrow how much they offer me for it. and get this....

the woman that hit me.. CLAIMED I HIT HER AND FLED THE SCENE!!!!!!!!!

lmfao..are you serious? bad blood?

SteelBlue · Post by **SteelBlue** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 4:22 pm

wow, that looks horrible

I'm so glad that you are okay and weren't seriously hurt. From the pictures it was awful but it could have been a lot worse

I've done the car wreck flashback thing, it really sucks that you're gonna have to go past that point every day but it will get better.

btw, I'm with the rest. Ex is a POS who should be taken out back and beat for saying that kind of crap to you.

Here's to a speedy recovery!
