#20990, "My car met a pole"


          

I am sad to report that another DSM has died. On Saturday, 2/10/07. I was making a left hand turn and my tire blew out and It sent me into a pole. I will miss my car. I loved that car. I thought I would own it forever. The insurance company decided to total it out.

I am fine just a couple scrapes and bruises. What hurt the most was getting a ticket.

What did they ticket you for... I thought it was due to a tire blow out?

How fast were you going in that left hand turn to cause that much damage?

Picture of the damaged tire showing brand, model, and wear? What caused it to fail?

I got a ticket for failure to maintain a lane. It was a rim failure, not the tire. I am not sure on the speed probably <40.

Grab a couple friends with a truck, smoke a joint, wrap a chain around that pole and high-tail it out of there and show that pole who's boss.

whats stopping you from fixing it?

front frame support, new radiator, front bumper & lights (do a 2Gb conversion!) new hood maybe fenders and you're good to go!
