Who the hell put a cross walk on the off ramp of a bridg
Who in the hell, had the bright ****ING idea, to put a cross walk on the BLIND ****ING CORNER of a BUSY ****ING OFFRAMP of a ****ING BRIDGE! Well, I today learnt why its a dumb ****ing idea. I slamed intot he back of a big *** truck, and the corner of it (You know those steel bumbers that stick out of it) and it totaly ****ed up my mx3.<p>Heres some pics of the damage. I think its a right off, due to the fact the frame is warped, the driver side door doesnt close properly any more, and personaly, I dont want to drive it any more (Not cuz I dont like it, but it will just never drive the same.)<p>My insurance is going to cover it, it was 100% my fault, so the insurance will be going SKY HIGH on me. Everyone was ok, luckly the bumper from the truck didn't go therought the car or it would have taken my moms head off, and the guys in the truck, well if they claim injuries, its BS cuz the truck didnt even budge an inch. The pedestrian, heh, *****! She imediatly went to the guys in the truck and said I saw the whole thing, it was his fault I'll testify, here's my number.<p>Any ways, made a claim with the insurance company, and need to get the estimate done on the car (I hope they just pay me off). The ironic thing is, it is 1 year less 7 days that my parents had an accident in the SAME ****ING SPOT.<p>I went to Norh Vancouver District hall latter in the dar to ***** about the cross walk, the guy I talked to told me I need to learn how to drive, and its not their problem, its the Minitry of Transportations problem, so I went there, and the guy I need to talk to wasnt there. Typical government. I'm gonna start a petition to have the cross walk removed.<p>Heres a link to some pic of the damage.<p>My MX-3<p>[ September 11, 2003: Message edited by: sapper ]</p>
I saw a street sign yesterday that said Caution! Children playing! so I slowed down. Then I thought Wait! I'm not afraid of children!

That really sucks man, I feel for ya. However, watch your language in your posts. I realize you are upset, but you don't need to display it in that manner on here. There is a filter for swear words on here for a reason. Please, don't avoid them by mispelling the word.

Re: Who the hell put a cross walk on the off ramp of a bridg
so wait your parents got into an accident at that place a year ago yet you still were going to fast to prevent the same thing from happening again? How is it anyone's fault but your own if you KNOW there's a crosswalk there yet you dont yield.

I almost hit some dame crossing across to Ceasar's Palace on an on ramp to the freeway. I should have hit her. I had the green, and she had a Don't Walk. Damned tourists!

Re: Who the hell put a cross walk on the off ramp of a bridg
Yes it was the exact same spot, but my parrents wernt hit on the on ramp, they were hit just after it, second, if you read the first post its a blind corner, and if I were to go any slower (Like I said I was doing 25 KM/h) I hould have been hit from behind by someone coming off the bridge. IT WAS A BLIND CORNER, IT WAS MY FAULT, I DID YEILD, IT WAS RAINING AND THE TIRES LOCKED UP. BUT THE POINT BEING IS WHO THE **** PUTS A CROSS WALK ON THE OFF RAMP OF A BUSY BRIDGE!

Ouch man sorry to hear it, just glad all of you are ok. Cars can be replaced, people can't. Hopefully you get things cleared up with the insurance companies, they take forever and a day to get anything processed or settled for that matter, so the best of luck out to you.

Re: Who the hell put a cross walk on the off ramp of a bridg
some rides cant be replaced
sorry for your lose <p>as for the whole swearing issues, people should just let the moderaters do their jobs, and everything will be just fine.<p>I know i have sworn many a time in posts when im angry everyone does it. as for the whole going on at work, maybe you should not open a post where you know there could possible be some bad language, and open it when you get home or something. just a suggestion i guess, i know i didnt check soe posts if i was at my school.
but i think everyone needs to lighten up a bit and get back to the topic at hand <p> <p>thats my 2 cents anyway
give me some change if ya want to

Re: Who the hell put a cross walk on the off ramp of a bridg
he wants to swear, thats his business, hes pissed so hes going to take it out that way, if no one was swearing, then the mods would have wasted their time putting in the blocking, and i dont like to waste jeffs time<p>so the way i see it, lets use jeffs swear blocking thing and make him feel good that something is being used, so **** it all, sit back and chill. <p>peace
