Dumb ****ing Old Drivers!!!!!!!!

Well I was having a great day yesterday and it couldn't last could it?

I was driving back to work from my lunch break after ups dropped off my msd 6a, msd 8.5mm wires, new CAI and my blue LED's for the dash. So I was happy as could be and what happens, some f*cking moron decide's to not yield at a turn. The intersection is horrible for things like this and how there aren't accidents there 9-10 times a week i don't know. Anyway, he had an unprotected left turn and I had the green light to keep going straight as i was. So I'm cruising at 47ish (speed limit 45), and this dude turns as my truck is half way in the intersection. Long story short, jam on the break too late and BAM!

So I hobble out of the truck to my truck bed and prop my foot up as it hurts worse than anything I've ever felt in my life. Sit there and after ems arrive's they cut my lace's out of my shoe and take my sock and shoe off to find my entire foot shifted 2-3" to the right. Spent the next 24 hours in the ER and had orthopedic surgery on my foot around 10pm last night. The foot wasn't actually broken but dislocated bad enough that it chipped away 12 of the 20 different bones in my foot and my middle toe was completly gone. Basically it took little chips off almost every bone and fractured the other from the pressure of my big toe and 2nd toe pushing onto my 3rd toe. I hope that makes sense?

Anyway, my baby is gone to truck heaven and I can't put any weight or pressure on my right foot for 5-8 weeks or I risk having perm. injury to it and possibly crippling the foot. I will post pictures of the truck after someone else gets up there to get pictures. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Hopefully the accident will get written as the other driver's fault for failure to yield and at least your truck will get paid for //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Women shouldn't be allowed to drive either.It was a woman that stopped for the homeless man walking into traffic that almost caused several accidents.

Honestly though, most can't drive worth shit.

I almost hit two people today by doing what you described, welll pretty much.I was at a red light, and there were people turning left, they didn't have any green arrow.I figured they wouldn't be so stupid as to turn in front of me (as I had the right away).And I ended up going on green (well, duh) it and this STUPID ****ING ***** turns out in front of me, then this beat up POS metro or something follows right behind her and I came very close to hitting him.Stupid ****** as emo boy. . . . .

I honestly wonder how some people get their licenses here. .. . . .

young drivers are worse than old drivers....Its you kids who **** it up for all of us

you should have been more observant and I blame you as your experience is limited as are your driving skills....

Some people regardless of age *** or race just shouldent be allowed on the road

you blame me? i don't care how old or young you are but you're a ****ing idiot. My car was in the intersection when this guy started making the turn. The front driver side of my car hit the front passenger side of his car. If you really blame me i hope something happens to you like this so i can blame you for not being observant.

OLD PEOPLE ARE THE WORST. Im sorry but when you cant drive the speed limit get the **** off the road. Or at least pull in the slowlane. Old people cause so many accidents and there sober. At least teens are getting in accidents cause there not sober lol jk. But seriously old people are so much worse than younger people theres no way you can say that these old people dont help cause all this shit more than any other group of people.
