so i got in a accident last night and it sucked really bad so heres some before and after pictures that i got.. the basis was that lady in front of me was oriental and out of the blue slammed her breaks on and stopped and i was aabout twenty feet when i noticed to breakand then i hit her and i got a ticket for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident......
this is before


and this is after





hopefully i can get my baby back

 

atleast youre alright (arent you?). I liked your car a lot. good luck with everything, and sorry to see her like that

 

 

sucks dude. sorry to hear about that.

 

ok lets see...

2 headlights
1 radiator support
1 radiator
1 after market intake
1 cf hood
1 fender (cant see the other side)
2 airbags (looks like the srs sensor moved/broke)

 

Ouch

 

Sorry to hear about the accident.

I'm concerned about your comment regarding the driver you rear-ended.

Does it matter what 'ethnicity' the driver was?

If you were driving too close (and quite possibly too fast) behind the car in front to have ample stopping time, then the police were correct to charge you.

Please don't blame the driver (or refer to their ethnicity -- since bad drivers are simply bad).

Unfortunately you were the one who was charged by the authorities -- based on the information they decided you were responsible.

Good luck getting your car fixed.

Consider yourself lucky that you were not injured (and your car isn't a right off).

 

chill...

 

um..............oriental ladies are shit drivers. Ethnic slurs and all.

 

^^^

Agreed. Some people get too upset over little racial comments.

I'm Italian and you don't see me throwing a fit every time someone makes a comment about the mafia.

 

Thats cause the mafia is badass

 

I agree with JumpMan, just chill noone's sayin shit about races, he's frustrated, I would be too. I'm sure I'd be mf'in the person that caused that too. Sux bro, looks fixable though, loved your car Hope to see her rise again, hope your insurance takes care of her

 

sorry... gonna have to agree with alex on this one...

 

Everyone's entitled to their opinions here in the forums. I will leave the race/racial comments aside.

Only thing left to comment and I hope everyone can be honest about it, is this:

If one drives like hot shit and yes, follow too closely then ultimately blame the person in front because you ended up rear-ending them, them blame no one else but yourself.

I've been tail-gated more times than I can remember, and yes I've heard the terrible sounds of squeeling tires directly behind me more times than I care for. (Fortunately I've been lucky so far with just too close to call incidents).

Just remember that there is a specific distance that one must keep between ones car and the vehicle in front of them. This provides the necessary stopping distance in case of sudden stops (if so required).

In this case it didn't happen.

Read the drivers manual again.

'Nuff said :blindfold

 

sucks about your car, but being an asian, the word oriental kinda offends

 

ugh i feel for you man. but if you do part out on it can you sell me ur left side mirror. i really need one right now.

 

ugh i feel for you man. it looks like when pimpcl23 got into an accident. but if you do part out on it can you sell me ur left side mirror. i really need one right now.

 

lol ur still on that mirror? pm me with an offer...if u want...

 

That sucks to see man, your car was looking real clean before the accident.

I didn't think oriental was a negative racial word at all, maybe people are just too sensitive about it these days. Also, I dunno why people are defending the lady that "slammed on her brakes out of the blue" according to the story. From the story he gave it sounded like she was in fact a shitty driver.

 

Just think of it as comparing them to old people drivers

 

hey guys i just wanted to say thanks for the support and the comments....as for the oreintal comment im sorry to all that it offended it was just upsetting that the lady didnt speak a drop of english at all and had her husband bring a translation book to the site so she could talk to the officer. as for the guy whose upset up there i was riding in a safe driving distance and i have to many tickets to by "hott Rodding" around it was simply that the sun glare was right on her car and i was 1 unable to see all of her brake lights on and 2 unable to estimate the speed that she was going. obiously it was my fault and iwill admitt that. as for this forum yes you are intitled to your own opinion, but with my experiences everyone has been nice , so again i apologies for the comment but there's no need to freak out man.

 

That really sucks man, but it does look like it can be fixed, and you r not hurt so thats really good. Hey if you plan on selling your rims i wouldnt mind buying them from you.

 

Looks like somebody made quite an impression. I'll riddle his ass later tonight for all this confusion.

 

so sorry to hear about your car.. it looked really nice

 

Any pictures of the asian lady ?

 

sounds like a bleeding heart to me. i bet know one would have commented on that if u didnt mention it.

 

 

lol

 

I don't understand what race has to do with the abilities of drivers?

I apologise to those who I may think my opinions are trivial, however I thought I'd point out that there are generalizations which shouldn't apply.

Consider the best drifters are all mostly from Japan. Would you say they are bad drivers?

Here is a definition of 'Oriental':

a member of an Oriental race; the term is regarded as offensive by Asians (especially by Asian Americans)

For the record I appreciate sweetcl97 for clarifying his comments, and any misunderstandings which I may have mistaken as inappropriate.

 

if it was a retarted midget he would have said the same,he's venting.

sux man, not a good year at all for cl's. hope shit works out..........

 

well, you are retarded..............



j/k

 

Any wreck is a bytch. Atleast you had insurance right?

 

o definitly got some insurance and i dont know...if i loose it then i dont know if i want a cl again cause like it would be a cl but not mine and i would feel wierd which sucks but as of right now its still at the shop getting looked at so ill keep you all posted

 

Simple solution, steal all your parts out of the wrecked one, and start again on a blank canvas

 

like the left side mirror!

 

hey man i did the same thing with my cl like basically identical to ur story, buh sorry to say they'll probaby total ur car. The damage just outweights the value. I'd be partin it out right now. Get all the parts you need while you have the chance.

 

u got into a accident also?

 

I got hit from the side by a semi-drunk guy when i was driving a camry xle, the damage was not even extensive , all the parts were very good and i could have made some $$ parting them out but it was too late b/c the insurance comp already sold it to a junk yard (after they declared total on the car)...... all i got out in time was the aftermarket sonny head unit... So call your lawyer/insurrance up and ask to see your car, make up excuses like you 4got something.... and pull out everything you can...

 

Strip that bitch
