**OFF TOPIC** - Yaris, CRASHED IT!!

[Kimmy]

Morning people,

Well some of you will be pleased to no that the yaris is now half dead, i managed to crash her into a Brick wall lastnight, got myself into a place where i then couldnt get out without damaging her.
completely lost my back door and back bumper on drivers side.
Looks an absolute state, ripped to shreads!!
Then once i calmed down abit, i then tried to drive home, and i got about 3miles out of the city centre and passed out whilst driving from the shock, taking out the front bumper drivers side on the dual-carriagway, this isnt as bad as the rest, but bad enough i guess.
SO no more Yaris for a while!
COMPLETELY BUGGERED !!!!
Kimmy

Please don't take offence, but I think that there is no way that you should ever be allowed to drive on public roads again.

Metal can be fixed, bodies can't.

Re:

Sorry to hear about your car.

I'm still trying to fathom how you "got yourself into a place where you then couldnt get out without damaging her" ??

Anyway, like Dan said, it's only metal and can be fixed.

Re: My poor car

Well i hope u stop shaking soon! Just relax and take some nice deep breaths! Couldn't imagine crashing my car, i'm a relative new driver (since last june) with a bravo hgt. If i crashed that, i'd never get insured again! That'll right blow my chances of getting a scooby!

Re:

Steve O, bit heartless mate. wait til she's stop being upset before you start saying things like that eh.
I know how it feels kimmy, I had an accident recently too (2-3 months ago).
I went out 1st thing in the morning (6-7am) down an untreated country road, slid on black ice doing 40mph, tried to correct the slide ended up hitting a bank and rolling into the field at the side with all the roof collapsing around me. car landed on its side so I had to punch through the sunroof to get out. scary stuff. my advice is carry on driving asap, as the longer you put off the longer it will take to get back into it/get your confidence back. trust me I know!!!

[Kimmy]

IM STUPID thats how MATE!
My dads always telling me to leave myself anough room!
Right ok.....
i went into my mates underground car parking space at his flat, i went in forwards, and then realised that there wasent anyway of getting out unless i could turn the car round and get out forwards. because there was other cars to close to back out and i was parked to close to the wall on my right.
BUT there wasent enough room to turn her round. so either way, i was either going to lose my front door,wing mirror,front bumper. or my back door and back bumper.
So i took the later option and the back it was, I have to say, that there is no worse feeling than actually sitting there and hearing ur car getting smashed and shreded to bits and knowing your doing it and have to carry on!
HEART-BREAKING !

Re:

Couldn't you have asked the owners of the other cars to move ?
Sorry for asking, but there's no way on heaven or earth I would try and move my car if I was boxed in and risk damaging it.

[Kimmy]

scared

Ive only had her a month!

And my lisence about 2months!

Im so scared of driving it now, couldnt even look at her this morning!

cheers for the advice Dan!

 

[Kimmy]

No

The guys cars who was boxing me in, they work on the rigs so unless they was going to come back from nigeria to move there cars for me, i was totally buggered mate.
Oh plus the fact of the two huge massive Brick walls either side of me and behind me.
And to tell the truth i cant move mountains babe. lol

I no i no, it was totally my fault.

i though i was ok to drive home after i kind of stopped crying. but obviously thats where the shock set in and i just passed out, also damaging the front!

Re: No

So, the cars were there when you drove in ? Sorry, but I don't get it :s

Rob

 

[Kimmy]

not my fault

NO, the cars wernt there when i went in, but my mate forgot to inform me that the guys in the other flats left for nigeria sunday nights.
meaning by the time i was leaving at 8.30pm they had already parked there cars and gone!
And other than trying to move two brick walls with the power of my mind, there was nothing i could do but f*ck my car over!

Re: scared

I can't understand how you got into a spot and couldnt get out of it. You drove into it without hitting anything - why didnt you drive it out the same way?!?
Its scares me that you were on the road to start with!

 

[Roberto]

Re: not my fault

Well, there was the option of leaving it there ! Call the police ? bump it out ? Plenty of other options, rather than fook your motor up.
Anyway, what's done is done.....hope it don't cost too much. And your health is way more important, so just chill.....u can't change what happened and it's only a car after all

[Kimmy]

arse

Yep cheers Nige make me feel better why dont you mate !
why dont u read the post it explains that the other cars wernt there when i went in etc...
sooo dont insult me, when i couldnt do anything about it!

 

[Roberto]

Re: arse

Nige's point, and correct me if I'm wrong Nige, is that there WAS something you could've done about it....nothing !!

Rob

 

[Kimmy]

dunno

i would of had to leave it there for a month, the guys are away for a whole month. And i dont even live in city i live 26miles outside of city and work out of city to. so that wasent an option.

Anyway like u said its done now!

Maybe nige and steveo are right, maybe i shouldnt be on the road!
