Including your cab drivers! I took one down town and was so freaked out by the guy we took a limo back. Back in India he might have been a rally car driver!

I was going straight on a green.

Where I said every turn you take was a figure of speech.

Sucks man, sorry to see and hear about that.

Unfortunately it's always the person making the left-hand turns fault. (At least I'm 100% sure of that here in Phx, heard it was elsewhere).

What's next for you?

Accidents suck. Good luck with everything. From those pics, it looked like the Z held up very well.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"I was yielding to make a left" I never heard that expression

Anyway, willing to move on. Like I said before, be careful & good luck

It's not an expression, he was not expressing anything. That is a description of action taken. I read that and knew exactly what he did. He merged into the turn lane and yielded (giving way to the intersection and any traffic traversing).

As car enthusiasts sometimes we do what I'll call spirited driving. How would we treat/say if some old fart made a left turn in front of us???? Sometimes people die in those type of accidents. That's why I feel that I was kind with my comments. Anyone that wishes to ignore me, I'm fine with that.

JWillis72 · 12-15-2013, 10:54 AM

My biggest dislike of this forum is the fact people are so hard on other people for no reason. He didn't say he was driving "spirited" anywhere in his post so did I miss the video?

i blame the department store for not getting her attention for the additional 0.5sec to check out that other pair of shoes.

You missed to understand my post. Maybe you misunderstood what happened? Try reading the 1st. post & perhaps you'll see who "the spirited" driver might be or who "the old fart" might be.

Sounds to me like he was trying to get out of the middle of an intersection after the light turned red and thought she was stopping for the red light and instead she ran it. My only point was the guys car is smashed and even if it was his fault there is no reason to rub it in. I'm sure he posted it sick to his stomach looking at the pictures so I don't understand the need to kick him while hes down. I don't have a dog in this fight so no need to respond to me.

I was very kind & nice. Wished him well.

It's people like you that seem to stir & continue this thread. After I make this comment, I'll be done here! I/WE don't think it's cool to make left turns in front of US/other cars. I don't care how it's worded or thought as. That kind of actions hurt & killed many a sport car enthusiasts. I was nice & kind!!!!!

finished.....
