Rear-ended a girl in the LeSabre last night...

Post by lspitzley »

Leaving my apartment complex last night...didn't know the roads had a coat of ice on them.

Coming up to the stop light and when I went to hit the brakes I didn't slow down at all and I couldn't turn into the other lane.
I threw it in reverse and gassed it and that helped a little. Gave her a good bump. 8-[
Luckily it didn't do anything to her car and she was real nice about it. :hail:

Took a little paint off my front bumper and cracked the paint a little.
Luckily I have a broken off driver's side mirror, some rust on the rocker panels, and small dents on the passenger side( trying to get a slice of pizza out of the box, very difficult due to poor cutting of the pizza, hit a mailbox :roll:) to distract attention from it

Good thing it wasn't the Bonne. Then I would be mad!

I read this completely wrong. I read it as you and a girl were in a LeSabre last night, having a sexual encounter.
