brr curse strikes silver neon AGAIN

Post by 2003silverneonsxt » Sat Nov 22, 2008 1:34 am

well story is,,,

was going to my grandparents on the back road, came up to a S- turn area, knew the road was bad, so i went around the first one, doing bout 25...saw the road was shiney ahead, slow started applying the brake, started to slide, let of brake and slowly put pressure back on, this time it locked up and went straight through a road sign, (hit black ice or ice period) broke the poles off and they lodged under the car, i was stuck, luckly a guy witha bobcat drove by and he unloaded his bobcat and pulled me off the post, bungee corded the bumper up and drove it home, no engine or suspension damage as i can tell for now, just need a new bumper and maybe fender, and lip ...

type of sign i hit...:

It is that time of year again, ice time that is. Glad that you are okay but sorry about your vehicle.

I think that may be the problem, look at the sign its a straight arrow. You should sue the town or state.

Damn, had your bumper had a chunk out of it and hung a little lower on one side, I would have sworn I saw you on I-76 yesterday :lol:

Sorry about the accident :(
