Girlfriend flipped her RSX

The title is pretty self-explanitory. Monday night we were messing around, me in my car and her in hers, coming down one of the highways around here. We had backed off and she was behind me. She went to pass me, started to swirve and come towards me. She countersteered and oversteered, went the opposite way and lost control, hit the curb, gaurdrail and then it flipped. The car end upside-down facing the opposite way. I helped her crawl out and she walked away with a bloody lip and swollen cheek. She's been sore the past couple days too. The whole thing scared me to death. Ill post the pics my cousin took the next day when he emails them to me.

My heart woulda dropped if I saw that happen to my girlfriend. Glad she's okay.

Hmm, the RSX is a pretty safe car I see. I hope she gets it back.

Im workin on the pics, Ill post them as soon as I get them and when I do you'll see why she's not getting the car back. She actually just got a Jetta VR6 on Tues. As far as me being a "fricken idiot".....if you read closley we weren't messing around when it actually happened but obviously it lead up to it. I trust my girlfriend's driving skills, she just made a mistake......it can happen to anybody. She was very lucky and she's not planning on trying her luck a second time. I understand where you're coming from and I definatly learned a lesson. It makes you realize how quickly things can go wrong. She walked away virtually unscathed and I am grateful for that.

No, its cool. We were messing around leading up to it and like i said before, it probably played a part in it, but it's not like i slammed on my brakes or made her do something where she had no other choice. I appreciate the support though. Thanks.

The car was a lease and when they do total it I'm guessing the insur co will sell it to a salvage yard. It's not her car to sell the motor.
