Well, to start it off, in 2005 (which this will come off my reccord as of... 5 days i think) i was going to swim practice from high school and at a stop sign T intersection an old lady infront of me turns right, BUT slams on her breaks right in the middle of the road, and assuming she had turned all the way, I moved up to the stop line, looking at the car the lady had braked for coming down the hill... about 100yrds away, so I poked a hole in her back bumper, I freaked out, followed her, she ended up stopping at the post office so i turned in, said sorry that was me, she said "oh I thought it was my fault", and i was just so nervious i said, well maybe i could have prevented it or something, but once i said that, it was over, she got my info. and all that, so that's mark one.. which I would like to add, my dad saw her driving crazy and fast around the high school parking lot with a bunch of dents and "battle scars" on her car, he came home later and asked what color the car was, turned out she got into these kind of accidents all the time! lol..
So anyways 2nd mark would be a speeding ticket i got while taking an off ramp (which leads to another "mini-highway" Super 7 for those of you who know, and it was rush hour, traffic was going 70 or so, first exit to the right after merging onto super-7 (lots of cars in right lane) car infront of me was trying to get a space in the lane to exit, so i waited.. Id say a car length behind maybe more, eventually car moves over, I speed off, resuming speed from before (70-topped out at 80 but cruised rest of the way around 65-70) for about 2miles till end of super-7 (btw I even checked, no car near me for about 1/2 mile in either direction) so I am about to turn off super-7 and I see cop lights.. I'm thinking what the hell, did I run the red light or something? lol (took right on red, and no sign saying i can't) state cop gives me the whole deal, said he picked me up with lazer (made a comment about how my radar detector didn't do much for me...) he took a guess at my speed i just said sure w/e, (the whole attitude of the cop was sorta a power driving/smart ass tone) anyways I go for my registration, he sees a warning ticket i had gotten like a year before for going 40 in a 30.. he gives me a speech about how obviously those cops thought i would learn my lesson bla bla bla, anyways end of the story is $500 ticket, 300 for speeding (never showed me actual speed he got me at, just had an estimate on the ticket), i think $125 for not having my license (just got back from college and forgot wallet at home,no car at school for 1st year too) and the remaining money for "following to closely" which i was unable to get a word in there about what was going on, (he said it looked like i was ridding the cars ass until he moved over lol) so anyways luckily the court reduced that ticket to $250 but still sucked.
Last story and biggest booster of insurance, last year around Oct. (which btw first incident happened in dec. ticket in oct. and this last one in oct too lol, something about Oct-Dec. that gets my into trouble with cars i guess?..) Anyways I was out one night (had a 3month old passat GLX very nice, just got tint/sound system hooked up) and i was borred 1 night, and tried to take a wide off ramp that I have wanted to do for a while by trying to kinda "drift" the turn a little, (my first car, Crown Vic. I use to do all sorts of s*** with it) and going around the turn, its a little wet out so i figure i can spin the tires pretty easy and not be going fast and just catch traction again, so tires don't spin so I slow down and just gas it real fast, they spin, I'm not use to front wheel drive cars, so i step on breaks and the car (going about 5-10mph) bumps along the guard rail like a damn bumper car.. hits every single panel, which i will post for kicks.. mine as well lol, but anyways the labor on that car made it "totaled" mostly because the back panel they had to cut it off, take out the glass and weld a new one back on.. oh and btw, the front tire was tweaked a little i think it was like an axle pin or something.. was bent wrong way...
Those are my stories, I'm a 20yr old male, at "high risk" so I get nailed.. and now its going to get real bad lol.. pics are below of my previous "love" (first stick car too, which is how i found my MSP) Now its time to drive, when I actually do end up driving again, to drive like an old lady.... or at least nothing over the speed limit and no late night rally driving lol
