Drunk driver + hit and run+my truck= FML

ill get straight to the point..

so after having a chill day, pulling out fc pro am's motor at my house, and chillen with some of the forum members... i decided to kick it with my home girl...

so i was driving with my friend going to her house.

so were heading down the street, and i see a car swerving. so i slow down, and i noticed hes going towards my side of the road(the street is small), so i pull over as close to the park cars, and i stop,.

when the drunk driver was about 30 ft away. he guns it, and rams into my truck..he almost flipped the car be cause he bascially drove side ways on my truck, the impact lifted the car in the air to point were i saw the bottom of his car..

the ****** rammed the **** out of my truck breaking the spindle, power steering rack,wheel, fender,(basically anything conneted to the front rim) and fucked up the side of the car...

by that time im trying to assest what the **** happened..

so i immidiately call 911, and the drunk driver takes off right away crashing into 3 other cars on the way..

i tired chasing him down, but he kept driving and he got away

the cops didnt show up till 20 ******* mins later.. seriously 20 ******* mins later..

i filed the police report, one of the near by ppl that saw what happen gave me a ride for 20 mins to try to find the ******,, but nothing

also i got whiplash, ******* feels like ****

it ******* just ruined my night... idk ******* sucks..

looks like i wont be making it to seven stock, and i doubt my insurance is gonna cover it,,( not sure if im covered under the policy....)


**** idk what to do now... my priorities are all fucked now/..

yea basically he hit 1 car, swurved, then gunned it at me, crashed, then took off, hit a few other parked cars along the way.. the guy was had severe front end damage. and his front wheel was broken, but he still took off.

Jaime, really really crappy that happened to you. By your description, you're damn lucky all you got was whiplash. And be glad you weren't in your FD at the time.

A couple years ago I was driving my canyon, stopped for a dog that had wondered onto the road, and while sitting there got rear ended by a kid going 60+. Thankfully I was in a tank of a car that belonged to my mother at the time. If I was in the TurboVert, not sure I'd be typing this right now. You just never know when **** is going to come out of nowhere and hit you in the face sometimes.

Anyway, focus on the now. The truck is now very secondary. Get checked out by your doctor ASAP both for your own health and especially for insurance purposes. Gather major repair receipts for your truck to help you arm wrestle over it's value. Etc.

AND, I better see you at 7Stock. Or I'm going to go find you and drag you there.

Damn Jaime, sorry to hear that..
im amazed that he hit so many cars and was still able to drive away.. even if he did get away there is now way he could have gotten very far.. if the cops would have showed up in a reasonable time they might have caught him im sure hes leaking some fluid.. they just need to get off their donut eatting asses and do some leg work.

Things will work out mayne. just gotta stick with it.

The reason you need to get checked out is to verify no lasting repurcussions. If insurance is involved don't sign off on their responsibility until you're damn sure you're good. A lot of times they try to buy you out quick to limit their futher responsibility down the road.

Mostly glad you're OK amigo.

Dude! That sucks! I'm sorry to hear about such a bad accident. I'm glad you're okay though! If you ever need a ride somewhere man, I'm 10 minutes away, you know my number, hit me up!

But yeah, I know it's probably real tempting to want to put this stuff aside and focus on 7stock but get all your health issues figured out first. And I thought my hit and run was bad...

So get yourself all checked up and all figured out so we can work on my car ASAP! Haha, just playin' man. Priorities first

Sorry to hear that, wicked bad luck. I know a great car accident lawyer hit me up if you need it. I think that your uninsured motorist should cover it because it was a hit and run. GO to the DOCTOR ASAP its critical to do it quick.

Damn fool, hope all turns out well for you dude. Hope that guy gets caught and anally raped... I'll do the honors. I'll even get HIV just to give it to the guy.
