I no dude I regret it everyday of my life. I wrecked my car I had $5000 worth of aftermarket in it they wouldn't let me take nothing out of the car.

Here let me tell you the whole deal. It was a Friday about 2 in the afternoon and we get off early for once (in the Navy) so I let my buddy borrow my car so I gets me a bottle of sambuca (can't speel) well 3:30 rolls around and my buddy says to me here take your car back (this is after I drank 3/4 of a 1/5 ) I had no intentions on driving that day was going to spend the night at the place I was drinking. Well here I am in my drunken stuper thinking man I am hungry. So I sneak out the apartment and hope in my ride and head towards Taco Bell No prolems yet the liquior hasn't hit me yet. So here I am sitting at this red light and this integra starts revin it beside me and I am like alright buddy you asked for it. Light turns green and I get him out the hole big time I get up to 80 and he is like 6 car lenghts behind that is when he let off but I wasn't done yetI keep up till I jit 120 then I popped it in neutral and let it coast. Now keep in mind the speed limit is 35mph. I go around a bend and there before me is a red light with all lanes blocked so instead of hitting them I slam the brakes on and steer it towards the curb by now I am down to 100mph. You can guess what a curb will do to your car when you hit it broad side at 100 just my luck I wreak right in front off a fire station. Cops are there in a few min. By the time they give me the breath test the liqiour has finally hit me and I am trashed.

Any of you who read this please learn from me don't drink and drive it just isn't worth it I lost my car got in trouble with the Navy and had to pay fines totaling $2000 and plus I lost my license for a year just got them back this year.

At least you learned your lession. Better than a lot of people with bad driving habits (DUI, careless driving, speeding, etc, etc.).

you had it especially bad. The Navy hits you AFTER the local authorities do... so it's double-jeopardy. You deserved it, tho, and now you know better. Good for you.

Ok here's the scoop. I'm 19 with one claim against me for $2000 and no tickets and I pay 1700 every six months with Gieco for a '90 Vert. That is with FULL coverage including comp and coll. Because I had the accident they wont give me the good student discount so watch out for Gieco, they like to screw you over.

the insurance is usually cheaper when you have 2 cars insured relatively.
