Accident
So while working on my car I heard a crashing sound upfront near my neighbors house. Some 17-18 year old girl with 2 passengers decided to do 2 flips and land upside down. Her excuse was her steering column shakes while she drives so she jerks the wheel to correct it...Glad this happened 2 weeks after school let out because the accident happened 1-2 minutes before the bus picks my kids up. Skid marks are right on top of where I stand with my 2 kids, next year we will be standing 10 steps back. Thankfully noone was hurt as I was the 1st one on the seen and helped them out of the car and checked them over for injuries and yes the neighbor hill billy's need to mow the fawking lawn LOL.

Sounds about right. My parents live on a gravel road and this kind of thing happens all the time there. I showed up of a few bad ones over the years. Now I live in a city.

I was the first to show up at an accident involving a first gen bronco. No top and no real roll bar. It wasn't pretty. 5 HS kids messing around during lunch break, racing at over 75 down the gravel road. They weren't as lucky as these kids but they did live. One is paralyzed from the neck down, another lost their arm at the shoulder. I still have flash backs of the blood whenever I drive past that spot and this was 8 years ago. The cops said they wouldn't have lived if I hadn't shown minutes after and called right away. These kids were truely lucky.

After a little autocross and some time on a real race track with my RX7, my driving on the street really calmed down. For some reason, "spirited"street driving lost it's appeal. The rush comes no where close to what you can obtain on a real closed circuit.
When I was younger I got pulled over 6 times in one month (ticketed 2 outta that 6). Thankfully, I survived my time of stupidity.
But when ever I see cones out on the street, my tail wags!
Only time I got ticketed in my 7 was for doing 40 in a 35 zone, go figure...dam quotas!
