some _______ driving a rented moving truck clipped me, while taking a corner too tight, while I was stopped at a stop sign

what a jack ___



I busted out the macro lens for ____s and giggles

 

Ah, dang dude. it's so painful.

Is the jackass paying for it?

 

was he rude to you about it?

 

we have the same insurance company, and I got all his info

he was cited

 

I am a photographer.... so here are a couple macros I took of the glass a couple minutes ago

 

How did you keep yourself composed?!...
I would have had some unkind words to say to that IDIOT driver!

 

and I always keep my .38 in my car

I did have some very "unkind" words to say to him, very unkind

 

was he rude to you about the whole thing?

 

why would you mention that here like this? like you would ever use it on someone that hit your car.

 

would I use it for him being rude.... no, never

could he have been packin, sure.... I have seen lesser incidents get out of control

just saying, I always keep it with me. I am licensed to have it... and have been robbed at gunpoint twice

 

ouch!

 

dam. sorry to see this. hopefully you can get it taken care of very soon

 

That sucks. I stay far away from any car or truck I can tell is a rental because I assume the people driving aren't used to the vehicle. Not that you could have seen this one coming. I've seen various moving trucks hit curbs, cars, signs, trees, telephone poles, and a bridge...

 

And SUV's towing a U-Haul trailer! Not anyone can just jump in and tow a trailer.

Saw a bad one at the lake. A girl was going to park the PWC trailer since the BF was already on the lake riding. Went down the lane going the wrong way and decided to "just" back up and go down the correct lane.

You can guess what happened next...major jackknife and smashed rear quarter. She got out all freaked out. I told her to just continue on the wrong way and park. Bet the BF was mad! Its his fault IMO, because he should have done the parking, not go out riding first.

BlackYaris, sorry to see the damage. Hope it works out for ya. Great camera and closeups, however.

BTW..... my crap is still at the body shop

they gave it back to me once, but I gave it right back since they did a ____ty job, and damaged one of my wheels

 

I did get new taillight s out of the whole deal

 

looks good now man, I almost like it more w/o the blacking on the tails..

 

wow, yeah, this is why i preach that in general, give any rental trucks plenty of room when possible on the road because often the people driving them have no idea how to handle them and underestimate their blindspots and turn radius

 

I don't think this would matter, I mean we have to take a test now to get a license, and there TONS of ppl out there on the road that shouldn't be, but are.

I think it's wayyy to easy to get a license in the U.S.

 

I just want to move to Germany... I miss driving the Autobahn
