Im Annoyed.. And Daily-less

[Simon-S14]

Hey all, time for a rant so bare with me.

Last night on my way home from work in my daily driver (the AE92 if anyone seen it, it looks like a POS but its reliable as) i was driving along Grand Junction road, heading towards the Gepps Cross intersection. was doing the speed limit and there wasn't much traffic around me, the other side of the road however was peak hour and i noticed this Mitsu Colt (old one) doing the duck and weave in traffic... didn't think much of it but all of a sudden the rear wheels lock up and the thing is way out of control. They mount the median strip, cross is and right into my oncoming path.

Now im already doing 60k's.. i barely had time to hit the brakes, i did but afterwards we looked and there were no lock up marks so i hit them at a full 60 K an hour. I T boned the colt right in the passenger door.... hit it goddamn hard that it pushed the car up the road and then they flew up the fence at the crossing right out the front of the Gepps Cross girls school.

my first thoughts were, its a stolen car and they were taking evasive action to get away hence the handbrake car, but the driver gets out and its some feral sailsbury chick, and she pissbolts down the road... in tears as far as i can see. The passenger gets out and i managed to get my car off the road.. was only just drivable.

the passenger was the boyfriend of the driver and admitted to me that they were having an argument and he pulled the handbrake up on her, and she lost it. pretty f**king dumb i thought and i abused the guy some. the guy looked like a total derro... mohawk, daggy clothes, and a real general allround drop kick from the north.

anyway cops rock up... and and even longer story short, the driver which was the chick, had never had a drivers license in her life, no insurance, they both got fines and the cop was an absolute champ about the whole thing... he was on my side 100%, gave me all their details, and said "do what you want with the details but baseball bats doesn't always get your money back but it sure is fun" with a sly wink hahaha gotta laugh at that!

So yeah... I'm only pissed off because i have no daily driver now and no transport too and from work.. to make matters worse i have to pay a 250 tow fee + impound yard fee, when i wasn't even at fault. Sure i could claim it back off the guys that caused the acco, but these two don't strike me as people in the work force... prob dole budging scum...

Anyone know of a car for sale, im after something around the 2-3K mark for something reasonable.. sure i could et a 300 buck shitter again but i rather something semi ok.

godamn deros... sucks to hear. SO he just yanked the handbrake cos they were having an argument... =/?

[gtrkiet]

LOL it was good u hit them!!!

[jenkies]

thats a shitter of a situation mate!! thank goodness you managed to run into a top cop!! the only daily i can think off is a dude from tafe selling his 2001 hyundai not sure what kind it is but its a tini bit bigger than an excel.. 150,000 kms and he wants 4,500 for it... but we all know hyundais are shitters and not worth touching with a ten foot barge pole. maybe try find yourself a low kms r31 altho noth the best on fuel... pulsar??

anyway good luck dude and if you can try get victums of crime compensation.

[dnbutts]

lol....yanked handbrake to piss her off/kill her or something?

im sure he wuvs her long time.

[heslo]

Wow, that sucks buddy. Doesn't sound too promising about getting any money off them but it may be worth a try. The dickhead boyfriend should think next time, first for letting an unlicensed person drive and second for ripping up a handbrake on an unsuspecting driver. Luckily you got a good cop, at least that helped the situation some!

[gtrkiet]

claim compo!!!!!

[Luciano]

I can not believe these clowns... they have no respect at all for others on the road. Absolute scrubbers...

Good to hear you didnt cop any injuries mate. Shame about your daily though. Just another headache for ya

[neatgtst]

[Dohmar]

-D

[Nightcrawler]

sucks to hear Simon. Important thing is that you weren't injured though.

Still gotta get you to fit my water pump one of these days .... my temp is not a problem in winter-time, so no great hurry.

[mrgtt]

so even if ur not at fault and the other dudes a broke ass u cant do nothing about it ?

Correct.....do a bit of spying on the guy and his girl & see if they have any assets worth grabbing.

You'll be amazed how many outstanding traffic offences have not been paid and never will be and nothing will ever happen to them.......they have no money, they don't show up for court or community service and jails are way too full for anyone doing 10 km over the speed limit. They lose their licence by post but still drive because they "apparently" never received anything in the mail....rarely do cops knock on their door unless in was "speed dangerous" or a similar offence and even if they do knock on their door, they never answer so cops give up eventually for minor stuff.

you can take them to court and they have to pay you back what they can afford even if its $5 a week.

My daily was t-boned not long ago by a guy that works in a crash shop in work hours so his work place is doing my insurance but because i hade no insurace i have to do all the running around.

too true....if you can find them and serve them and even then you're not guaranteed they're going to show up to any hearing.

You'll be surprised how many are of "no fixed address".

[Krishy]

ahh sucks to hear that happened to you simon......really f**king stupids "we were having an argument so i yanked the handbrake" what a wanker

[Hillzy]

Sorry to hear that. Bloody deros!!

That's exactly what happened to me. Some dumb b**ch ran into the back of me and because I only have 3rd party it was up to me to sort out everything. Massive pain in the butt.
