If you get rear ended by someone, whether you brake check them or not, it is on them, for not being at a safe distance behind you.........
Maybe this is why the Twinsburg cop yelled at me once he finally pulled me over out of his jurisdiction....... he was on my ass for miles and I waited till the last second to brake for a traffic light with people stopped at it (he could have seen that had he not been on my ass lol). But from everything I heard the city doesn't pay for repairs to civilian vehicles. So if a cop hits you, you're pretty much screwed.
If someone says they were brake checked and the cop believes them the brake checker will get a ticket. Happened to a buddy, girl hit him after he brake checked her and cop gave him the ticket....
Also Jess you are correct. I looked it up after watching police chases and the person slamming into someone or even a cop hitting another car. its on the other person

According to my legal council, Tom Cabral, both drivers would be at fault! I guess since the driver who brake checked, initiated the contact (committed an intentional act) and the other driver did not maintain a safe distance. Interesting to say the least.

Not true! Same rules apply, unless they are usng lights and siren. Eventhen, the cop can have some liability if he or she acted unreasonably.....Cops are not above the law.....
I've heard of instances where the city absolutely would not pay. Wonder what happened in those cases.
So I truly think I'm cursed with cars right now.... On my way back from lunch the valves or timing chain started to chatter like a mofo on Whitney just outside my office... I'm without a running/working car... **** meI give up
Hopefully it's just the timing chain tensioner and not a big deal. She's been pretty reliable for you these last couple years, no?

boo. This is not your year for cars
She's been dead nuts reliable for the 6.5 years I've owned the car.. Every issue to this point was self inflicted on my part haha. Just bad timing (no pun intended) to have t go down like this when the msm is still currently in pieces as well...
boo. This is not your year for cars
Yeah I have but I guess that's what you get when the daily has 155k and the fun car has 96k....
All of this. Even better for V since he's fully Catless. My exhaust smells, but not as strong
Did anyone else read this in the Dos Equis man voise?
I have dreams of doing this once the RX7 is running. Except instead of soot it will be a massive fireball.
I used to mess with people who tailgated me on the highway... Until I encountered a particularly crazy guy who proceeded to follow me all the way to work. Too many crazies out there, you never know what they are going to do. I'm not going to get shot over people driving like idiots. I'll just get out of there way and go on with my day.

And since you don't need a psych eval to get a CCW, you never know who'll be willing to bust a cap in your ass!
If someone starts following, I never go to my intended destination. If I have nothing better to do I will follow someone who pissed me off, their facial expressions change real quick when they figure it out, I go a little further with them then end it. Make them think twice about ******* with someone, which is just what that guy did to you lol!
