They man, we've all been there before!

(well, before some people start jumping all over what I just said, I'm sure some people are still accident free.)

I'll tell you what my dad told me when I had my first accident...."you're a real driver now, so welcome to the open roads!

Just learn from your mistakes and i would def say work on your defensive driving. If
there were no cars beside you and you had 3 seconds to slide, you could pumped the brakes and stirred around. Keep your head up and always be aware of your surroundings

Happy Motoring!

lol, thats funny, you know i always though that i was the best driver, also because i never had an accident, until one day a friend of mine said somthing similar, he said "if you have never had an accident you don't know ish about driving" although we were dicussing agressive driving like practicing with cars, but it was true what he said, because after my accident wich was nothing compared to others, it did make me realised that no one is immune not matter how good they are at whatever they think they are.

btw, i have noticed the driving is sooooo bad now, just today a chevy trailblazer was on my *** cutting through traffic, and since i didn't want to get creamed i stepped on it and passed two cars right, left, then right, and he did the same, and came on my rear, so i cut through 5 cars and left his *** back, he almost flipped over. And yet if a cop saw me doing that he would slap me with a careless driving.

its like the cops say,lol "sometimes a good cop has to bend the rules to protect the law" so "sometimes a good driver has to bend the rules to avoid an accident",lol

everyone knows if i stayed like i was, he would have gotten close and closer to my ***, until he got pissed off and tried to cut through and cause an accident, all 4 lanes were full, all traffic was moving at 60kmh on hwy7 so i followed through the gaps and he used the same gaps till he was ahead of traffic and i was long gone.

I don't know, but with a board name that reads "redlineracer" I take it that you are not the type of driver that goes slow on public roads. Also, your comment on your dad talking to the insurance company makes me think that the car is registered under your dad's name, and maybe you are not even on the policy.

Hate to be in your place man when the insurance company finds out that you are trying to take pictures of the car with a different bumper on it. Believe me, there are ways of finding out the truth about these things.
