Exciting day!!

lovinfishin9 · 12-11-05, 01:09 AM

Well I had an exciting day today. Me and my my sister went out to give some stuff to my brother who was at his friends house. My road hasnt been plowed yet. We only got down the road not even a mile. We hit a patch of ice, turned sideways, ran straight into an embankment, did a 360 degree turn, and stopped about a foot from hitting the guard rail. I didnt get hurt too bad just some scrapes on my neck from the seatbelt, but my sister bruised her ribs. No serious damage to us but the car is totalled.

ahhh nothing gets the blood pumping like a good fender bender.

from my vast experince i will tell you this. keep your hands away from the inside of the wheel. and don't breath any more of the dust/powder that is inside an air bag it is deadly.than you have to..

Good to hear you're alright... too bad about the car.

May this serve as a reminder to everyone- be very very careful on the winter roads!

My mom flipped 4 times on a bridge once.... Although the worst wreck I have been in was when I ran the Toyota into the pine tree when I was learning to drive a stick. Good to hear that yall are safe. Gotta be extra careful on that ice...

My worst was comming back from Brookeville Lake , was doing some late
Nov. crappie fishing off the causeway rocks, got back in my 1977 Ford250
4x4, had just put a huge lift kit on it, painted the inside of the bed and put a killer stereo under the dash the night before,
well, I crossed a hill/railroad and the jolt knocked one of my power lines to the stereo loose, I reached over to plug it back in and took my eyes off the road, and drove right throw a concrete telephone pole on a back road.
Clipped the pole into (1280.00 bucks) and totaled my truck,
I had a seat belt on and all I got was a broke nose.
