I got off work last night...coming home from Auburn. Took the 512 exit off of 167. Going up the onramp, I hit oil or something going around the curve and lost complete control of the car. Spun out (left some skid marks...go check them out when you get on the 512 exit) and ran off the road. Rolled down the enbankment and came to a stop upsidedown.

Radio was still going so I knew there was power to the car. I pushed the auto button to roll the window down and crawled out. I couldn't believe what the hell happened.

If I didn't have my seatbelt on, I would've been nearly dead. But as it stands - the seatbelt kept me in my seat. I had a hard time unbuckling since I was upsidedown. Aside from whiplash, some chest pain, and a small bruise near my left eye - I am untouched. No scratches, no fractures. I was lucky...I have no idea how I made it out but I'm greatful that I did.

This was in a 98 Accord...I dumped so much money into it and now it's totaled. The insurance company is going to appraise it and give me what it's worth and I'm left to pay it off AND find another car. If anyone has a good car for sale around $2,000 let me know.

The point of this story is to inform everyone to be careful on that curve...and I also want to know if anyone else has had any problems on that onramp (if you live in WA)

 

did you ever go back to see what you slid on?

I once flattened a palette with my 98 coupe....I had to replace the front spash guard after that.........
