STUPID FORD TAURUS! **Trying to Fix Thread**

*****Trying to Fix, Imagevenue messing up etc...*****

Disaster has struck!!!!!!!!

This guy (pictured below) decided to do an illegal U-Turn right in front of me in rush hour traffic. He didnt even stop, I guess he just thought he could make it???

I slammed the breaks and swerved right he hit me on the left and I jumped the curb right into a big Crepe Myrtle. After I made sure my son and wife were ok and calmed down so I didnt shoot the guy(got my Permit so Im legal to carry now hahahhahah ok that wasnt funny), I actually thought it looked pretty insane.

What pissed me off even more, I asked 3 different cars to stay until the cops came since they witnessed it and they all said uh uh uh we gotta get home we gotta go we gotta do this...stupid people, I hope that karma bites them in the ***.

Anyways,

The rest is history...Here is Angelina.

That's just sad. Another stang bites the dirt. Well, hopefully, insurance can take care of this for you. Hope the family is doing fine. You can always get a new car.

Please be advised that small children and those that are disturbed by graphic images should look away.
I hope everyone is okay. What can I say... I'm Sorry. It's just awful.

Did the guy in the Taurus stop and wait for the cops? And do you have the phone numbers of the witnesses?
That's really a shame. I'm glad you and the family are okay, but I'm sorry to see that.

That really sucks. Glad to hear most of the family's ok, jut too bad Angelina had to get hurt. What did the cops say after interviewing both of you? Are they going to charge him? I was lucky I had several witnesses stay for my accident, made the cops investigation pretty easy.

Good luck, I hope it all works out for you.

That's good. At least it'll be on his insurance, not yours. Now hopefully they'll take care of you.

Verry sorry to hear this, glad your family is OK. At least the guy stopped and admitted fault, you would not believe how many stories and accidents I have seen that involve an illegal immigrant with no insurance, who then insists that they had the right of way to make a left on red. Again I am very sorry to hear about this, and I hope everything works out.

That's sucks guy! I don't know whats with people in these STUPID FORD TAURUS! Whatare they thinking about while driving?

Over four weeks ago an 80+ woman leaving church entered the road crossing lanes not seeing me or the car in the next lane next to me. I hit the brakes at 45, but still my front got it between the two vehicles. Still waiting on the dealer to come with a good "Grille Mounting Panel", their full of defects in grille area, what a pain it can turn into, especially repairing a show car.

Then a few days ago I see another Taurus get it in the rear.

Good Luck with repairs.

That blows. Personally I hate driving cars that have been in wrecks before because you know they will never drive the same. Unfortunately for you that doesn't look like enough damage to total it out.

Sorry to see this happen. Good body shop procedures and equipment can do wonders. When I was involved in a frontal collisions my Mach, the front unibody structure had to be bent and straightened again. Laser measuring devices are great. I have had no issues with drivability.

Glad your family is OK, and good luck with repairs.

ah man, that blows. Glad to hear you and your family are alright. I can't get over how many stupid drivers are out on the streets these days. I almost got rear-ended by a transport today cause the driver wasn't paying attention.
