after putting some new bushings on my car today, i took her out for a drive on some of the back roads. I come up to a turn/downhill, start to slow down and a black jetta comes flying up in MY lane! I hit the brakes, my *** slides out to the right (mean while the black jetta swirves around me and speeds off). i'm sliding down this hill sidways, so i mash the gas a lil to swing her around cause I wuz getting awfully close to the edge of a ditch. I over compinsated, and swong my *** around the other way, and my front right (passanger side) hit a small cement/stone wall. FREAKIN A. SOO, thank god NO frame/engine/suspension damage, so i drove it home with nooo problems, BUT I need a new headlight, fender, header panel, bumper, and the under valance. i am so insanily pissed casue i have no money for this at all, and its my daily driver. anyone with any parts let me know bigbubba211@hotmail.com

 

I don't have any parts for ya, but that sucks dude. It always makes me sad when these cars get hurt.

Sooo......the Jetta was coming AT you, in the wrong lane.........or, coming up from behind you in your lane?

 

sounds like it was coming at him.

 

the car was coming at me, in my lane, nearly avoided a head to head collision. pain in my *** casue its not enough for the car to be totalled, but enough to cost some $$

 

No insurance?

 

I have a front end from an 85, fenders, bumper , valence etc.. Ill sell it cheap, but I wont ship it, would be too expensive.

 

That sucks soo bad dude. i know what its like when stupid people destroy your car for you and theres nothing you can do about it.

ive a header panel. and some fenders. pm or email me

 

This just goes with my observation that most people that drive jetta's are ********....

 

No, people that drive Jetta's are either gay males or blonde females. That's my observation.

 

mike-p-28 and maguire, you have what i want, but i can't drive out to kentucky

 

i have insurance, but not collision, and the jetta sped off

 

College is almost out for summer. Maybe post some ads in campus personals in local Kentucky schools websites? You might find somebody with a truck driving back from Kentucky to Pa willing to hual the parts. You never know.

 

I hate to say it, but with insurance rates and the cost to repair a vehicle, we are being guided to actually not avoid collisions. If Jette dude would have hit you, then his insurance would be liable for the (greater) damages.
But they can still cast doubt by lying. A former co-worker climbed a hill beside the road in his F150 to avoid a woman driving at him head on , but she still hit him (in the ditch)- and she STILL denied being at fault. When did our society become personal liability denial central?

A dude in an old but sharp 626 with dark tinted windows ran a stop sign right in front of me this evening- I slammed on the brakes and laid on the horn. He flipped me off as I narrowly avoided ramming his driver's door. He then stopped just past my truck going the other way, and rolled down his window. I am still stopped- partly from shock and partly from anger. I yelled back "You ran right through that stiop sign." and he responded in a very drunk and pissed tone "Yeah, blow that motherfuI<in horn some more you ______". I just sat there is disbelief- here I actually avoided clobbering this guy with my truck and he is actually mad at me for blowing my horn. Situations like this make me question if it is even right to blow your horn to let people know they are in the wrong, if all it does it make them mad- people don't self analyze when they are mad?

 

You have to avoid people like that both on the road and in life, they are vexations to the spirit.

 

my anger gets the best of me in a situation like that, espeacialy if the guy was drunk, he endangered my life, he would not get away with it. what if for some reason you had droped your ciggarette or if you dont smoke, a doobie, or if you dont smoke pot, some coffe or somethin and you look down and not realize this **** is commin straight at you. smash!!!!!!! FB/SA tottaled possible injury or death..., its not right people like him... ahhh nm im gonna stop now heh... anyway man good thing most 1st gen driver know how to drive and control a vehicle
