Well I wasnt doing 75. So either you cant read, or just plain retarted. This is a road with a 55mph speed limit. So I technically wasnt speeding. And IF the road was wet then yes I would have slowed down. That was the problem...there was no signs of the impending weather. Living on the top of a mountain gives to sudden weather changes. I had came up that same mountain road 3 hours previous to the accident and it was dry as a bone. So yeah...thanks to everyone who says I was going too fast. And its the ignorant like yourself blaster that should be taken out back an shot to make sure reproduction isnt possible. I was doing the speed limit. I was driving as I had down that mountain god knows how many times. I traverse that road 3 times a day. Through snow, hail, rain, shine...everything. If I saw the road wet, which I do slow down for. I know its a dangerous road. Those truck ramps for semi's that lose control on the side every mile kinda remind me of that everyday. Even the eye doctor I went to the next week to get new glasses says he has seen it happen to often to normal drivers for the past 30 years.
Oh and I've hydroplaned in the kind of rain that happnened that day doing 45mph..so even If I was doing 5mph less than the speed limit, I would have been in the same siutation, but less damaged. If you people have never been in the kind of rain I went through, then talk to me about not seeing it or going to fast when there was no warning, then dont open your mouths. And dont think , not even for a second, that I think its ok to speed with my family in the car. I dont. Never. I lived in NY and watched morons with family whiz around me all day long like its the goddamn Indy 500. Ive seen friends killed because of those morons. So ask or take a second and think before spilling that crap out. The first thing I thought of when I realized what was happaning was him. When we finished rolling, in all the pain I was in, an barely able to breathe since I brusied a lung, I was still making sure I was trying to help him the best I can and making sure he was ok while saying "I'm so sorry" to him. So blow me buddy.
And bash on Hondas. Knock yourself out. Just in you blantent ignorance of that obvious anti-Honda statement, realize that w/out Hondas contribution to the import world of compacts, you may not have the ride you do today. I guess for people like you who realize nothing, and dont care to do so, ignorance must be sweet bliss...
Oh and the 93 Si that my uncle is so gracious enough to let me pay off while working for him would be able to mop your car up in any Autocross event. So bash away.
