MX-3.com

I totalled my mx-3 tonite. I just got home and i cant sleep. A guy cut me off, it was raining i slid sideways into one of those thick poles, took that right out of the ground, then i took out a fire hydrant, and finally stopped on a curb. I had a base 4 cyl, 1.6l mx-3. No airbags. I had my gf in the passenger seat. She has a case of whiplash, i have a messed up ankle, maybe a broken rib,( dint go to the hospital) and a bunch of bruises, ill have more when i wake up tomorow. Its sad i enjoyed the car very much. Too bad it had to end this way. Ill post picks, so hopefully you can learn someting from my experiance. P.S, I wasnt drinking or speeding.(incase any of you were wondering)

Whoa..Glad youre alive man. U should go to the doctors just to get checked out. Cars can be replaced. You cant.

yeah get to a doctor man.. i have been in a couple of wrecks you dont really feel it till the next day if its soemthing bad..

wow you took out a poll and a fire hydrant with ur mx3. U are lucky to be alive man. Newayz don't try to be a hero or anything, if it wasn't ur fault get your *** to the hospital and tell them that your back is seriously messed up HINT, HINT.

It's sad that Canada will be forced to follow in the near future because of this abuse of the system. Glad you and you're girlfriend are ok! good luck<p>[ June 22, 2003: Message edited by: zytariuk ]</p>

I will let that one slide since you are a youth and you havn't yet grasped bigger concepts.<p>Actually the insurance company will settle and this has nothing to do with the government. You might enjoy free health care since it is free but the quality of Doctors is decreasing due to the almighty dollar. If you were a Doctor would you rather be paid by the government or the free market way? <p>Buy the way nothing from the government is for free<p>[ June 22, 2003: Message edited by: BUG$Y ]<p>[ June 22, 2003: Message edited by: BUG$Y ]</p>

your heath insurance has nothing to do with your health care in an accident the other drivers car insurance will cover the cost of the doctors bills........i should know i got into an accident stuck in traffice under 10 miles an hour & my insurance company paid for a guys new knee.........<p>jason

ouch. ive had two small accidents in my mx. im waiting for the big one :\. glad to hear youre not terribly hurt.

ya man you need to get all that stuff looked at and take pictures!!

I am, im going there tomorow. Thats why i need to know if anyone needs any parts, beacuse im just gonna junk it , but mark my words one day i will rebuild another MX-3.READ MY POST IN THE APPERANCE FORUM.

just to bring a smile.....i hit a firehydren with my explorer at the time.....and it didnt move! how the hell did you take this out with a mx-3?? i was goin atleast 40 too....<p>serious side, im real glad to hear you and your gf is alright. could have been real ugly man. hopefully all you bruises and anyother injuries are a quick recovery....take care man

something was wrong with that fireheidrent then..<p>Most are designed so they break off easy as of not to damage the pipeing or the shutoff vaulve located underground.

I hit a fire hydrant at 100 km/h in a Saturn and the thing just moved over 3".<p>How did you take it out?!?! Geez, that thing must have been busted up already, because let me tell you THEY ARE SOLID! (I'm sure you found out the hard way too).<p>~A

Back to the lazy people who fake injuries to benefit themselves, this is why healthcare premiums are so high thanks to lazy people like you. Go to college get a job. I'm young too but not stupid

Wow, glad to hear you are okay. Did the guy who cut you off just leave? Let us in on some more details with that.
