Default RIP - [2005-2007] A4

hey everyone, i just got in a accident today which pretty much slammed the right end of my 99.5 a4 1.8t and i am just pretty bummed out. i have like become emotionally attached to this car and its tough to see it go. Some old guy just turned in front of me (making a left turn) on a busy intersection where cars go like 35-40.. tried to tell the cops i was going 80-90.. and that i "spun his car." Just bullshit. He got a ticket, and even though it wasnt my fault its like im missing half of my body.. this just overall sucks. i know i am venting in a way but you guys in here are probably the only ones who know what this feels like. Just sucks. any accident sucks, ive been in many before but this hurts the most psychologically. It's like you have a supermodel girlfriend, and some old geezer just takes her away from you and then kills her.


just sucks. but anyway.. im going to be looking around for a new a4 or s4.

alright guys be safe and stay the **** away from old people k,

twizt

That sucks at least you were not hurt. Get a new B7 A4 and you will be more happy then before. Did you have any mods on the car?

I feel your pain bro, I lost my a4 about a month ago... only difference is it was my fault. Definatly sucks, but you will find another one eventually (atleast that is what I am told) so for now just be happy that you are ok.

yeah i know. it's straight bullshit. what can you do you know. Cop told the guy "if he was going 80, ther would be skid marks on the road" and that he saw no skid marks whatsoever. the guy's daughter seemed pissed off at me (she came seperate car to pick him up). she was trying to convince me that I WAS going too fast. "You were going a little fast huh." **** that ****. I told her i was going speed limit and this guy just turned in front of me. that's my story, it's how it happened, you can believe or make up w/e the hell you want.

i think the guy thought i was going to stop, cause i did slow down, and pretty much tried to make a quick left turn while i was going.. just crazy. I can clearly remember me just thinking "oh ****, im about to hit this guy. " then BANG.


South Park was right, old people should NOT drive.
