Built Tough! (Crash @ 80km)

[IceyAUS]

Well, Fun day so far....

Someone decided to pull out infront of me and BAM, only a little time to put my foot on the brake.

Hasent been assesed yet, but looks like it will be a repair job. (****!!!)

I'm Hoping for a write off...

Air Bag didnt go off! Kinda annoyed at that.
And my little camera was damanged aswell.. trying to get a viedeo recording of the accident off now.

Ouch. Any injuries? Looks like the other car is going to the scrap yard!

Wow dude! Glad your ok. What's with the airbag not going off!!!!!!! I'd be getting on holdens case about that.

Lol at this car. Destroyed.

 

[vsl67]

well at least you nailed him good I dont think he will be pulling out in front of anyone soon
Did he get fined for careless driving ?

 

[IceyAUS]

No idea what he will get pingged for. any one in SA got a car for me for about a month? I'd preffer a SSV
I'm all ok for now. back is a little out of shape.

its a pain .. literally it hurts (and does a lot of interior damage to the car) .. when the airbags go off. If you were unhurt, then the airbag did what it was supposed to do.. NOT go off unless you needed it to.

You got your revenge though lol.. the other car is a write off and i will give you odds he had no insurance on a junker like that !

If thats the other driver standing in front of his car on the tow truck I'm hardly surprised...

Have you managed to have a look at the damage under the bonnet? It could have twisted a chassis rail.

haha i thought the same thing...

definitely built tough though if thats all 80k/hr did. in saying that, it doesnt take much for it to end up being a write off

Lucky no one was killed - that is a fair old wack in the side of that car (Toyota).

I guess he did not see a bright blue VE comming at him - was on country road by the look of it - was it just an 80k zone?

You will be amazed how easy the front ends on the VE's are to repair. Still going to cost a bit though. Doesn't look like too harder hit but difficult to tell until you look underneath the bonnet etc. Also - are you hurt?? If you are unhurt then chances are you didn't hit hard enough for the airbag to deploy. They are not supposed to go pop in low impact crashes as they can cause serious injury/death themselves in isolated instances.

Ps - the other car is rooted lol.
