07 NBP Civic Si trashed :(

a1Lz · 07-16-2007, 10:11 PM

Well, just like the title says, my Si was wrecked earlier today. I was on my way home from work (left work early to go for my FIRST oil change) heading down a residential street doing the speed limit. There's a right-hand turn approaching up ahead where they have to yield. Next thing I know, I see this lady in a blue Pontiac Sunfire bolting down, failing to yield and didn't even look left where she was turning. Next thing I know, this is how my car looks....

That sucks. What did the cops say?

Firestrife · 07-16-2007, 10:16 PM

man that blows. the pics make it look like you have a ticket on your windshield.
And yea what did the cops say?

windforce · 07-16-2007, 10:17 PM

Amen...

a1Lz · 07-16-2007, 10:18 PM

It's funny, the cops were really compassionate for me. The lady's family came out and tried to put a guilt trip on me saying it was my fault and that the lady "knew these roads well, and drives them all the time." Apparently she doesn't know them well enough that she doesn't YIELD to a damn yield sign.

And when they were harassing me, the cops basically screamed at her family to get off the road and stop harassing me. The cop even pulled me aside and was just laughing saying that they have absolutely no case especially considering the way the accident was with her having a yield sign, etc.

This is heartbreaking, not another one.

I'm glad the cops were on your side, so atleast now you can make it pretty again.

a1Lz · 07-16-2007, 10:19 PM

The ticket on my windshield is the impound lot information. Oh, and the lady already got a wreckless driving ticket.

Man that sucks balls. I've been rear ended on my 05 Type S when I had it and the 16 year old girl's parents was like "Um, sorry!" I'm like *****, sorry won't fix my car and make my insurance lower!

a1Lz · 07-16-2007, 10:23 PM

Well, the engine leaked fluids. I know insurance will want to repair it but I won't settle for anything less than a brand new Si. I was going for my FIRST oil change... it only had 6,000 kilometers.

***Cybergypsy*** · 07-16-2007, 10:24 PM

Sorry i feel your pain.......

Skylinegtr06 · 07-16-2007, 10:25 PM

dayumm, is it totaled?

a1Lz · 07-16-2007, 10:27 PM

Yeah, it's undriveable...

***NighHawk8Gen*** · 07-16-2007, 10:50 PM

curse of the NBP...........if they don't total it, make sure you get a depreciation settlement out of the case!

megahurts · 07-16-2007, 11:05 PM

I hate stupid drivers...

so, uhhhh, you know if you don't want that K20 I'll take it off your hands and stuff.

**marc-o-lishuz** · 07-17-2007, 12:15 AM

Oh yikes. Sorry to hear.

Looks like the Pontiac got the short end of the stick in that crash tho.

Yeah, her airbags deployed but mine didn't. Airbags deploy at certain speeds, don't they?

Not necessarily; airbags usually measure the amount of impact that's being received on whatever end that's being impacted.

Damn that sucks bud!

Nikeman · 07-17-2007, 12:39 AM

Man sorry about the loss. I agree with the new Si thing. As much as people say it can be fixed I am a firm believer that it will never be the same again. Good luck man
