i finally got around to posting pics of my injured baby. right now shes int he shop, i bent a control arm, and fucked up some other **** too, without bodywork its gonna cost around 750.


o by the way, this is all from swerving not to hit a squirrel and hitting a tree at ~15 mph.






i had more pictures, but they didnt upload correctly...anyway....this sucks.

EDIT: UrbanLegend, i appologize if this belongs in appearence. im just used to posting here.

 

One2chi and Honda Accord =0
Squirrl out to get a nut = 1

You haven't seen that auto commercial where the guy swerves to miss the rodent. I bet he high 5'd his buddy right next to him just like in the commercial.

I would have ran the thing over as NO animal is worth rishing your life over

 

Sorry about the car, looks expensive. Do you have comprehensive on the car?

Personally, I don't swerve or hit my brakes for anything other than a human or a large, inanimate object (tires, etc). Dog, cat, rabbit, squirrel, possum, etc, they'd better move or I'm going to hit them.

You'd be suprised at how few animals I actually hit, maybe one out of 20 or 30 that are in front of my car. At the last split second, most magically get out of the way. I highly recommend that you start using this tactic, no squirrel is worth risking damage to you, your car, pedestrians on the sidewalk, etc.

 

yea i would have hit him but it was early in the morning. i wasnt even going anywhere i was just moving the car for alterante side parking.

no collision on the car the 700 is out fo pocket....thankfull mostly out of my dads pocket, he helped me out.

 

ouch, maybe i'm just naturally sick but i usually aim for those bastards.

 

cant really tell is it just bumper damage?

 

hahahahah lol!! this thread has turned into a very funny thread!!

 

im down with being nice to wildlife and i would try to avoid it but if it came down to me or the squrrel ,.....well that squrrel crossed the wrong road.....

 

"eat, or be eaten" as the saying goes huh? hehehe

Oh..mang...what have the world become..lol
maybe a deer, bear, hooker or a tree i would risk my baby..but
a stinky *** little bastard i would not..lol

it's all good man, you did the right thing..and your pa's great too.
now go buy him so beer, jk

 

i swerved to avoid a dog one time a flipped my old car. needless to say it was totalled. since then i just run em over if they dont move.

 

sad ****, i usually aim for them myself... and damnit, they usually get away. but like someone already said, its not worth messing up a perfectly good car to save a rodent. try the horn next time... or floor it, they both work in some way.

 

today I almost ran over some birds that did not move because they were eating some meat that was in the road I slowed a little and honked the horn so that they would move and they did.

 

Yea man I aim for that **** squirrels are worht good points... coz they are fast and sneaky id say maybe like 5,000 points for a squirrel...

 

lol i dont stop for anything
big or small, insect, animal or human get outta the way lol
all my friends know when i drivfe i got the right of way not pedestrians....
only problem is when u meet someone just like u......
i got in his way so he ran me over, hit me i flew up on the hood and smashed his window...i was fine but his car wasn't lol aww that was funny
but anyway
u guys c what a 15mph collision with a tree does...thats like 30km......now...my friend slide into a tree going 60km/hour....so thats what? 35miles/hour?
hit the same side of the car....except....everything was smashed the entire right side just caved in u could say...the wheel became part of hte engine...but the engine was fine...he had 91 accord....
but anyway.......dont risk ur baby for anything man....its not worth it....risking ur life so something smaller...come on what wer eu thinking...
lol

 

i say you body drop that btich and slap on some 22's !!!!
