  • VW air bags are awesome...

    Yes I just found out the hard way this morning... I did get to meet some of Alexs co workers though, they where very nice and did an awesome job taking Kaila to the hospital The good new is that we are both home now and will servive with some major brusing etc, not a good thing one week before my wedding. So the story goes we where heading down to the soundsaround sale down 10th ave and some lady in a civic blew by all the traffic and threw the red light and played major tag with my car. Fortunatly she hit the rear drivers side... the one spot I didn't have a passenger in! I then spun into the corner of a truck taking out my fender, headlight and hood. So the total is rear door, rim bent right in (I no longer will worry about curbage) rear bumper ripped off and tail light broken. That is all I can really remmeber that is toast, so I can say it is written off On a good note when the police blocked the area off they pulled over a car going the wrong way and recovered a stolen car and arrested 3 people

    Ohh ya I know the airbags work as they went off on my side making some very nice marks on my arm and my neck is all messed up from the seatbelt. All in all that car let 3 people survive after being broadsided by a civic doing atleast 60!

        Damn dude! Glad to hear your ok.

        Freaking Honda's always too slow to make a light.

        I was driving to school a couple days ago when a jackass cut me off crowchild and then tried to cut me off again. I didnt let him pass me on the second time and he gave me the finger. I proceeded to wait at a stop sign and follow him. We pull up to a red light... windows rolled down and I asked
        " You gonna give me another finger " he said sorry. Old mans lucky i didnt take out my ice scraper and rip that middle finger off =)

        Ok breathe... my anger management class told me to relax sometimes and breathe.

                      Ya it is only a car after all, thanks to everyone for their wishes. As my buddy said to me at the accident.. "You will just build a new one bigger and better now eh." I just have to see how insurance things go I guess.
