Horrible Crash with SRT-4

Si Speed 317 · 02-01-2008, 10:11 PM

Seeing this made me look at things a COMPLETELY different way. For those of you with aftermarket navigation, add this to a DVD and watch it in your car from time to time. I don't know what to say but I hope all of you guys on 8thcivic.com really cherish what we have and never end up like this.

More like, SRT-4TL

GregNco · 02-01-2008, 10:57 PM

Thats an old vid

***SOLO8thGenSi*** · 02-01-2008, 11:08 PM

if ppl would keep an open mind & not focus on the SRT-ness of this video, they might see the message behind it.

i applaud the poster of this video for being so strong & mature to try to get the message across. he definitely proved that he learned from his mistakes & thankfully said mistake did not take his own life or that of any others around him.

Or just don't drive like a douche.

Agreed. He's lucky to have survived that ordeal, but he also seems to have come away from it having learned his lesson. It takes a lot to stand up and admit fault like he has. He didn't try to blame anyone or anything other than his own immaturity. I hope everyone takes his lesson to heart.

Cool.
SRT-4 interior is ugly

And I like the girls on the
"before pics"
It's really sad

Thank god I'm driving slow now :))))))))))))))))

That kid really got his point across. Gotta give him credit making an example of himself.

AllShowNoGo · 02-02-2008, 12:42 AM

damn. enough said.

it def. struck me to slow down even more AND watch out for drivers that drive like maniacs.

Skyline4life · 02-02-2008, 12:50 AM

damn..I don't even know what to say..

Jardiniboy · 02-02-2008, 03:11 AM

Speechless.

Street Racing FTL.

That guy is lucky to be alive. In a crash like that, hardly anyone gets out alive.

SPARTANER · 02-02-2008, 03:17 AM

Geez, i could kinda see myself in that hospital bed, I will be slowing down for a while.

How about not acting like one?

Well this video I'll remember. Scary stuff.

shawnono · 02-02-2008, 03:29 AM

Instead of driving 5mph + over the speed limit, I will drive 5mph below!!!!

maxxdout218 · 02-02-2008, 03:40 AM

I was 19 at the time and 22 now...it happened in April of 2005. I was doing about 110 then slowed down to about 75 when the accident occured.

I am still going through rehab and JUST returned to school again. I was denied my prior career of being a chef due to this accident. I had only 6 weeks to go until I graduated one of the finest culinary schools in the nation...

thanks to the OP for posting this vid

lucky to be alive no doubt... he could easily have been paralyzed or dead.

jethroooo · 02-02-2008, 03:50 AM

mikaelo13 · 02-02-2008, 04:20 AM

Awesome that he made it through... awesome what modern medicine can do... some people learn the hard way unfortunately... but I hope it doesn't totally kill his love for cars... only to respect them...
