Why Can't People Pay Attention?

[Hillzy]

So I was driving home from work tonight with my mate driving behind me. We stop as the traffic banks up and some inattentive female driver rear ends him at probably near on 60km/h.

So as a result my mates car ends up in the rear of mine.

The part that really annoys my car was extremely clean with hardly a car park ding on it. Now it's effed.

I came out the best damage wise but its still pretty annoying. Boot's been pushed in, rear bumpers obviously knackered and the fuel tank's been pushed into the HICAS unit... that's about it really.

Photos don't do justice for either cars but here's some anyway...

Free tow so why not:

He had the WRX in the pic. Front and rear damage. The back's pretty messed up, it could go either way ie write off/repaired.

[nos man]

oh man that was one of the cleanest skylines i've ever seen! sucks man

[Deluxe]

Spewing dude, sorry to hear!!

Thought there would be more damage to the rex for a 60kmh crash, held up quite good i think!!

Yeah it held up well. My mate copped a face full of steering wheel but he's ok.

But as I said the pics don't really do justice.

[*flick*]

ah damn, sorry to read this!

So what happens now? Insurance job im guessing?

[Hillzy]

Yeah I'll have to call them tomorrow and see what the deal is. I was stationary and my mate in the WRX was stationary so I think it's all the girl at the rear's fault.

But she admitted fault so alls good.

Man what is it with boneheads these days? thats the 3rd skyline i know of thats been rear ended in the last 7 days

-D

That's so harsh - I feel for you Andrew. And to be hit by your mate of all people (albeit not his fault). How did he hit the steering wheel though? After the whiplash off his head going back then hitting your car and it flinging forward? Whatever happened, wouldn't be nice - hope both of your backs are okay.

Hey man,

yeah it sucks bad. My friend just got hit into, so her r33 is pretty screwed and heres a photo of my other mates r33 what got rear ended.

All bets are she was on the mobile smsing.

My sister is a culprit for this and driving home from work I often see (not generalising) but women driving in their little buzz box's swerving all over the road as they sms. If I see a bloke swerving he's usually trying to smoke a pipe or something lol

My sister recently went up the arse of a car doing 60km/h; stuffed her back (squished discs), cracked her sternum and can't remember the accident. Car was unbelievably written off. Not the first time either; been up the arse of other cars 2 other times; both while playing with the damn phone.

When I was at Uni; a middle aged lady used to pull out in front of me at the same time every day on the mobil phone and then not accelerate; i mean literally pull out in front so that it was either swerve or brake hard. I swear she never looked.

haha my little rant. My sis has pissed me off; I hope she has learnt.

[Whiplash]

sorry to hear Andrew,

hope you can work everything out with out too much pain with insurance companies ect

[Nightcrawler]

sorry to hear mate.

I can't believe that I drive my car all day every day for work, do around 30,000km a year, and WANT to be rear-ended, and no-one will do it. FYI I backed into a stobey pole a year and a half ago and bent my boot/bumper/light and want someone else to pay for it to be fixed

[Madaz]

ah that sux sorry to hear man Joel beat me too it, my guess was mobile phone

though occasionally it does happen like to me tonight was last car to go through a green light as it changed so accelerated and not even through the intersection and everyone starts braking had to jam on the brakes this was Tappley Hill rd that might explain thick traffic still i didn't run up the back of anyone or wasn't on the phone

Yeah I'll have to call them tomorrow and see what the deal is. I was stationary and my mate in the WRX was stationary so I think it's all the girl at the rear's fault.

But she admitted fault so alls good.

[bluegts]

Sorry to hear

I know how it feels. Not being big-headed, but my 33 was one of the cleanest I know when I got it. Then some bitch rear ended me not paying attension and my car was declared a write off, but then repaired... don't ask, just cars...

It never looked the same from behind especially the bumper, still doesnt sit right with no gaps.

Some may remember my pics I posted?

I had a mate who just rear ended another car and made a three car smash just like this one and the rule is he pays for both cars to be fixed so you should have some good news and she will have some expensive news.

It is always hard to see you baby hurt Sorry to hear mate.

[jenkies]

aww man what a pain in the asss looked like a really clean 33 just say ur boot was carbon fiber and your tail lights were led.... oh and u had a really nice after market rear bar.... free upgrades....

the best of luck and yes she is 100% in the wrong so she will be baying for both cars... or her sinsurance will be.
