i throw it in gear when i'm coming aroung the corner he gets his car fired up again i say sh/t wont that thing die so i'm following him and his hood flies up and hits his front window i think ok hes done he can't see but no gose throw a stop single on a yellow

so i'm right there i'm not looking in my rear view mirror to see any one come after me and i decide to get a little pay back so i tap his back bumper and he trys to pull away

by now his car is smoking and running like crap then the bad thing happens olmost ran down a kid on a bike so i backed off

then he turned down a housing street he olmost runs down to ki8ds playing ball in the street

i now say to my self i have to stop him no matter what and whaching
DAYS OF THUNDER THE NIGHT BEFORE gave me a idea i come on the side of him and i said to my self i'm going to put him into the curb

well it did not end that way his car was shot he was looking for a place to bail and when i got on the side of him his door came open BAZii i ripped that mother off lol and traped him in his car boy he was one drunk kid 18year old mexican

i had over 6 cars following me and the guy in the new vett told me that was the best car chase he's seen in long time then the cop showed up he got 5-9 years and deported

i had the good bumper and it still got bent but i bent it back and some what and reinfoced it

them little honda will will mess are trucks up i thought they where junk built cars but man at 60 mph anything can happen at least it did not bend the frame i was lucky

The saga has ended! That's why we need more trucks with diamondplate and pipe bumpers. I have a big diamondplate step bumper on the back of the truck, next project is a 4" dia. heavy wall pipe bumper w/ a brush guard for the front.

About three years ago I was driving home from work in a pretty good rainstorm and came around a corner just in time to meet a Van coming at me in my lane. Well given the conditions there wasn't a chance I could stop and I end up hitting him right on the drivers side fender and scraping down the entire length of his van. Anyway we both stop and pull off the road a bit and I get out in time to see this guy literally fall out of the van, at first I'm thinking he's hurt but no he pops right back up and then it becomes clear......he's pi**ed drunk!!! Well of course I have no cell phone and we're not exactly in a populated area so no pay phone or other people around for that matter. I start taking his info but he won't give me his name but instead starts swearing at me because he's finally realised he was in an accident and his van is smashed up. I figured I'll get his plate number down so as I go to the back he jumps in and takes off!!

The cops went for a visit after I got home and called them only to find the Van in the driveway but nobody home, they caught up with him three days later where he claimed he had to leave town for buisiness and was going to file a report when he got back. Oh and of course he was now perfectly sober. Needless to say he blamed me entirely and thanks to the cops being suspicious it was settled as 50/50 instead of 100% on me. Somehow though the insurance company made me shell out $3700 for repairs to his vehicle and nothing happened with mine, never was given an explanation for that just 'pay it or you can't renew your insurance'.

Try living in a retiree area.

Talk about a need for defensive driving. And walking, if you're in a parking lot like the WalMart or grocery, where the blue-hairs frequent, you'd better WATCH OUT !!!!!!! You can get flat run-over.

I could tell some stories, but the best is the local cop-joke used often as the cause of many local accidents, being:

"blinded by candle-light" ......... as in:

Too many candles on the cake --- (driver blinded by candle-light) ..........

LOL.

I had a guy rear-end me on the freeway so hard it sheered a couple of the bumper bolts.Totaled the guy's mini van. Bumper,hood,AC condenser,radiator etc. I got out ,looked at my bumper (minor bend,and hanging a bit low),told him to forget about it and took off in low,pulling his "bumper" completely off into the street.I waved a "sorry" and was on my way.

Back in my days as a truck driver I was stopped at a red light and kind of forgot about where I was. The light turned green and I started out, then heard a bang, stopped and not seeing anything I tried again, bang. So I get out and this little old lady is in a car in front of me that I couldnt see over the hood of the truck. She got out and said how sorry she was that she must have been in reverse or something and hoped she didnt hurt my truck. No damage I could see to her car so I said nothing hurt have a good day and we all went on. Poor old thing thought she was doing it.
