Re: 7th Gen Members Rides Accident's and Crashes Thread
ouch some of these make me wonder if the person driving was totally wasted or what, i mean how do you go into a ditch and run over a bunch of pine trees? lol. dont let anyone drive your car! its amazing how many fewer accidents there would be if people actually focused on just driving and nothing else. looking at other cars helps too like turn signals and brakes. same happened to me, some idiot was looking at his phone and didnt see me stopped with brakes and signal on waiting to turn for a good 10 secs in front of him.

Re: 7th Gen Members Rides Accident's and Crashes Thread
Summer 2006...
I was out running errands for work after lunch and caught some unexpected traffic. Stressed, I missed my usual signs of getting a blood sugar low (I am a Type-I diabetic). I had a hypoglycemic episode, lost consciousness and rear ended someone at a stoplight at about 50MPH. It is truly a testament to Honda quality. No damage past the windshield aside from the two airbags going off. I had no injuries except my hands had 2nd degree burns from the airbag powder. The other person was okay and was treated and released from the same hospital I was within an hour of getting there.
I was extremely lucky to be alive and needless to say, I am hyper aware of my blood sugar levels when I drive anymore.
Re: 7th Gen Members Rides Accident's and Crashes Thread
Damn, didn't know this thread existed. On the day before Halloween, some guy was soliciting some "labor" from illegal immigrants and I guess he saw the laws and backed up into my front end. Lucky for me my manager and co-worker saw him and he didn't run. Paid me $200 cash for a little hole in my bumper. Out of 7 accidents that I have been in, 6 of them I've been the "victim", and 5 of those have been while my car was parked. And all 5 times, I've caught the person before they decide to run on me. I'll post a pic tomorrow of the damage
Re: 7th Gen Members Rides Accident's and Crashes Thread
ouch that sucks, almost $1k just for the rear window. and the roof who knows if it can even be repaired. wow. did she not know you had a rack? but mustve seen it if she opened the door to get in? idk thats pretty crazy. and looks like the car mustve been going pretty quick. otherwise the bike wouldve just bumped and maybe cause a little dent.

Re: 7th Gen Members Rides Accident's and Crashes Thread
I know its not 7th Gen... But i'll share anyways.
I was driving my '92 Civic EX-V into a parking lot on a rainy night doing approx. 50 - 60 Km/h. Some jerk in a Green Cavilier pulled out in front of me as I was entering the parking lot and cut me off. I Swerved to avoid, hit a puddle (A very BIG puddle), Hydroplaned and made contact with a 6 Inch curb. My car only had about 4" of clearence.
If you look closely you can see the hole in the transmission on the bottom right.
Yes, you read correctly, hole in the transmission.
The Rad support was pushed back about 6"
Another shot of the rad support.
Thats the rad and my A/C unit pushed against my Engine and Tranny.
So, $800 and 2 months later my car is back on the road with a straightened frame, new front bumper, Brand new radiator, and '95 transmission.
Re: 7th Gen Members Rides Accident's and Crashes Thread
Okay so literally its been years since ive last posted. So this is my long story short. First off....here is my car before it was totalled. (yeah yeah, i know about the rack and lights and crap, but whatever...you should have seen the light output on those things in a storm. When i crashed it all that stuff was off anyways)
So i was crusing up the canyon close to my house and swerved from a rock in the road. Basically lost control and flew off a cliff. Luckily there were some trees there that i could blow through before really flying down there. I snapped through one tree and then flew 10 feet and pinned the car up against a bigger tree. When it was over my car was at a 45 degree angle and i was facing the opposite way. so 60-0 mph in 10-15 feet. Wow that was a blast. This was the outcome. (crappy pic but oh well, you get the idea)
Its all good though, i wasnt hurt at all. So i bought a F-150 after that from my buddy. Biggest piece of crap ive ever owned. So now im rocking a Mazda 3 and im loving it. I still think of this site though all the time! Spent countless hours of the night reading through all the posts, you guys are awesome. Take care everybody!
Oh yeah.....the new ride
