Default Had a Great night with the Civic :(

I was working on my car all day, Replaced the front Rotors/Pads, Put on some summer tires, filled all the fluids. Checked everything. My rad looked like it needed to be changed but it wasn't looking. I leave my house drive to my gf's then to the coffee shop. A whole 15 minute drive and my Rad blew. There is coolant all over my engine bay, it was everywhere. I am about 5 minutes from home but I am not driving my car with no Rad. So I do what I should. I disconnet my Rad, Pull it out the car. Put it against my front bumper. My friend just showed up and drove me to my house. Pulled the rad from my parts car, Got a 4L bottle of water from home and drove back to my car. Installed everything and it's running great. Just need to clean the engine bay now
