keep it up... -
6 accidents in 9 years:
- Old lady sitting between dividers released brakes and rolled right into my path. She claimed fault.
- Company station wagon spun out of control while taking off from a green light on a wet road. Assessment found that differential was faulty.
- Cab driver took an abrupt U-turn from the left lane right into my path. Court ordered him to pay damages.
- Some other idiot did the same thing two months later. She had no insurance, so I never followed up - besides, I hit her right between the front and rear doors and the chassis was totalled while mine had a broken bumper and headlight.
- Swerved to avoid a car coming from the opposite direction over the lane marking and hit a stationary car - my fault.
- Idiot changed lanes without indicating and ran me off the road straight into a lamp post - in hindsight I should have let her hit me so I could make a claim. In any case, the car cost me $1500 and needed a new engine, and I was one month away from leaving Australia, so I let it drop.
Spun my car once at 140 while dragging it out with a BMW 3-series, but didn't hit anything. No blood, no foul. -

or maybe u r too suay.... -
I was the front passenger in the Singapore one... and I was behind the front passenger in the Perth one... both weren't my car....Originally posted by D16Z6:so u mean the two incidents u werent the driver???
but is the car urs???
In the Perth one... my sis' fren was driving... she was sitting on my right behind... her other friend in the front passenger... Doing a right turn at the traffic light... light was amber, turning red... no arrow, so was our right of way... Lady driving a station wagon tries to cut the light... brakes too late... hits us right at the side... smack in the middle of the B pillar... the window at my door dropped out... my sis' sunglasses flung from on top of her head to behind my headrest... Car's all 4 side panels totaled... It was an old subaru... before the bug eye version... so now I feel subaru is a safe car.... hee... The woman's station wagon bumper got knocked off from the impact... She had 2 kids in the car somemore...
The Australians were damn helpful... 3 separate ppl came to ask us if we were ok... One left his name and number and offered to be witness cos he saw the lady runnig the light... Where can you see that in Singapore? Most ppl in SG just stay their distance and copy 4D numbers... Luckily no one injured... just had minor whiplash the whole day... and I was due to leave for SG the next day...
In the Singapore one... my fren was driving a rented Corolla... did a U turn too fast at a wide divider... mounted the kerb and knocked down a pedestrian crossing light... Luckily the soil at the lamp was new.. otherwise I think the car would have had more damage... The car bonnet was bent... radiator damaged cos water was leaking... but the engine was fine.... the lamp post wasn't though...
That's y now when I drive, I belt up... hehe... -
Well, I tend to push my cars a bit, but I wouldn't call myself reckless, except for that one time when it was my fault. I was doing 90 in a 60 zone, while the road was being repaved - my bad.
As for the rest, one mechanical failure, three lady drivers and one Somali cab driver - they're the bane of any Australian driver's existence. I mean, what the hell are they doing driving cabs anyway? Do they even have roads in Somalia?
