Got run off the road

So I was driving home from work in the rain the other day when I felt someone hit my back left side of my car. When they hit me they put me in a 360 spin where fortunately no one else hit me but I smashed into the corner of a curb. It hit so hard my mustang tilted on two wheels and set off my seats' side air bag. I thought I flipped but fotunately I didn't. Also, when I got out to see who hit me, there was no one there. A hit & run! I couldn't believe it. Here is what my car looked like. My rim was shattered, a couple dents from where they hit me, a bent rear axle and me frame shifted. Sucks. Fortunately they're fixing it. The damage was about $5K. May was bad luck for me.... :t:

I just noticed how it said "Friendly" under my tire while it was on the tow truck... Funny... :t: I guess they were not too friendly...

Holy moly. My friends Z28 smacked a curb and only cracked the rim and bent the axle, your wheel was obliterated. Glad your okay.

when i was crusin to the beach one day i saw someone do a hit and run. same thing happened but their car actually flipped. i called the ambulance for them, dropped one of my 2 friends off and took the other to get the plate and follow the guy who did it. he got caught. the people were ok. and all 3 of us got 100 bucks a pop from the guy who got hit. karma will come around in one way or another for him and you.

glad your ok!

holy cow dude!! that is crazy, sorry to hear about the car and what not.

TripleT 06-04-2008 09:10 PM

Glad your okay dude, now you have an excuse to get new rims and a better paint job.

Wombozi17 06-04-2008 10:02 PM

Wow! i have never seen a wheel get smashed like that either. even worse it was a hit in run. Just like stangchick said... they are going to get theirs for that, they could have killed you! Good thing you are okay.

SRQ 06-05-2008 08:25 AM

sorry to hear dude, totally sucks :( Glad you're ok though at least, can't put a price on that..you'll get her up and running again in no time I"m sure!

DJ_Nate 06-07-2008 09:17 PM

if it was a hit and run, how are "they fixing it" unless you mean your insurance company?
if u ever find them again, you know what to do :)

venom 06-08-2008 08:54 PM

Senior_LARK_LARK 06-09-2008 08:47 PM

Yeah, the insurance company is paying to have it fixed. Minus my deductible because of the hit & run. Which sucks. :t:

the gillz 06-10-2008 05:10 PM

it hurts to look at:eek:

Stangurey 06-20-2008 12:50 PM

FINALLY! I got my Mustang back from the shop today. It's great to have that "rumble" again when I'm driving as opposed to the stupid rental cars they give out. I'll post a picture soon of how it looks. :t:

nyheyman 06-20-2008 04:14 PM

Glad to hear it all worked out OK

doobie 06-20-2008 04:15 PM

Nope, never did. They cost me a $500 deductible... So hopefully karma isn't kind to them in the future. :t:
