Whoever caused that accident is stupid and should not be allowed to have adriver's license.

EDITED to be less vague for the slower people in the class.

And you people know he was a "poor driver" because? What if a car cut him off, he had to lock up his breaks, he got clipped so he rolled....I guess that would make him a stupid, poor driver.

Why don't some people stop making assumptions here. People who say stuff when they dont know the facts are either 1. jealous or 2. dumb asses or 3. both.

Well that was a waste of an $80,000 car.

Always wondered what the underside looked like.

i dont think anyone clipped them. they were two middle age men probably going through a mid life crisis. they had a bunch of money so they bought a fast car. like most middle age men going through a mid life crisis do. they dont know how to drive properly and they crashed. the corvette has the highest crash fatality rate. and the majority of the people who die in the crash are middle aged men (probably going through a mid life crisis).

Number A) Do you see any other cars around?

Number B) Did I say that he was the bad driver? I'm simply refering to anyone who doesn't think before they get behind the wheel. For all I know, a drunk driver clipped him while he was happily going the speed limit. Fine, then the person drunk is the stupid one. I was making a broad statement, not one aimmed at either of these two.

And there is a "panorama" picture of the scene anywhere? How many times have you seen at accident where one car gets fakked up, and another one barely gets damaged...

Your stupid comment was aimed at the guy who is lucky to be alive.

As for the midlife crisis comment, how the hell do you know. Assuming once again.

I'll be sure to post if you're in an accident, you must have been some stupid *** kid driving way too fast for his own good in his ricey *** car.

Happens here all the time, nice twisty roads with lots of hills, mix with people who drive too fast down them.

I agree. People in here assume without knowing. And when you rightly pointed that out, they tried to make up excuses to cover their tracks. Just be straight up and admit that you've assumed.

Did I say "That guy is an idiot and shouldn't be able do drive"? No. So how the **** do you know what the hell I was talking about? Oh, and my car is stock, so you are calling all Civics "ricey".

PS: I edited my original message.

I intentionally made my comment vague. Your the one jumping to conclusions.

damn that sucks. I have been in a bad wreck ONCE and it was the other persons fault. It was this dumbasss medical transport van. This 70 year old guy hit my car runnig the light and totaled my protege. Not only that I had to go through 2 surgeries on my right hand (yes I am right handed), in the past year. even though my hand is heald,it hurts like a biitch to write sometimes. and not to mention tendonitous in my ears from the sound of collision. This all happen the day before 9/11 in my 96 protege. I hate to see shiit like that. Makes me both sad and pissed at the person at fault. Although my car didnt flip over, it was head on collision. Sad to see aperfectly good viper go. They were lucky. I was too, I told the passenger (my girlfriend) to put her seatbelt on when we were like a block away from the intersection (she has mild nerve damage in her left knee from the accident still to this day).[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]. pretty fuucked up huh?

Always wear seat belts. Always
and yes I am going to court soon.

yeah, I noticed the e-brake too. Ya think he was trying to hold on to somethin and he pulled it?
As for the people arguing about stupid drivers......this case can certainly go both ways. However, to rip the back tire AND suspension off of that car, those guys must have been goin pretty damn fast. And from the damage to the roof and hood I'd say that they were skidding upsidedown for a good distance. Even if he was a really good driver, vipers are hard to control and it doesn't take much to lose it into a wall or something. Either way, it's good to see that those two weren't killed on impact.

Actually I read on another forum about what happened. They weren't racing, and there weren't other cars involved. They lost control going up an entrance ramp!! I don't remember exactly how but I think they hit the curb or something and flipped. Bad and a stupid driver I guess.
