So, I went to Panama City Beach, Florida for my spring break. I was being our sober driver for the night and here is what happened. 17 year old kid in a G35 ran a redlight and hit us. The cop didn't breathlyze either person, even though I requested it because he looks high as a kite. Anyways. Here are a few pics.
   Here is what I was driving:     All in all, Im ok.... Just got a busted lip, bruising from the seatbelt, and busted/swollen knees. There were, however, three other people in my car who weren't quite as lucky. One girl got her cornea partially cut I guess and she still can't see. the doctor said she had to leave the patches on for two more weeks to decide if it would heal or surgery would be needed. The second girl has a broken foot and leg. The other guy in my car has bruised ribs and whiplash. We were very lucky considering, but I would appreciate your prayers for recovery for everyone. Thank you. --------------------  |

Damn - glad everyone got out with their lives. Drivers in FL are notoriously horrible for following any traffic laws whatsoever. That's where I got into my first accident as well.

I'm surprised that no action was taken against the other driver if he was impaired. If you request that he be tested and there is reasonable evidence to do so, that cop definitely should have done so.
Either way, good luck on your recoveries. This post has been edited by SwissFerdi: Mar 22, 2010 - 11:13 AM -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

QUOTE (14:19:21) Daniel: That was a JDM hole in the side of the box too. There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out. QUOTE Ferdi says (11:29) No, it looks like a hooker put her acid vag on your hood. Acid vag = bigger problem than a few dings. |

Simple test...if the prospect of Taco Bell seems great to him, he's high out his mind.
