haha finally someone got the rustyshackleford reference, no its not the same truck that got vandalized, no the person who cut me off didnt stop, i landed on a different highway than the one they cut me off on, and no i didnt get any citations, even though i was packing some serious heat and california gun laws are kinda iffy, im not sure if my firearm was Ca legal, and i know the cops saw the clip in the glove box cause they opened it to get my insurance and .50 bullets arent exactly easy to miss, but they never said anything, guess they figured ide had a bad enough night, plus i have texas plates so they figured i was an out of towner, and yes, the insurance is paying me for all mods, i have every single receipt, about $12k worth, damn i miss my car

That is one hell of a accident! Good thing you made it out, even better with all your limbs.

@pmexpert youre wrong, i was by myself wearing no seat belt and every single airbag in the car was deployed. to everyone else, i was driving southbound on the 110 fwy in los angeles heading towards the 110/i-10 interchange, there's a ramp in the sky that connects 110 south to 1-10 west, the ramp curves sharply to the right, i was taking the corner on the inside (far right lane with no shoulder, its right on the wall) i was going highway speeds when someone cut me off going about 40, i swerved hard to the left to avoid a rear end collision, but the ramp was curving to the right and there was a car to my left so i had to swerve hard back to the right to avoid side swiping the other car, i managed to do both, but the rapid shift in momentum from swerving back and forth sent my car into an evil fishtail and i was traveling too fast to regain control and applying the brakes woulda only sent me into a barrel-roll so i opted for the fish-tail. the car fishtailed 3 times (across 3 lanes each time) and smacked head-on into the 110 ramp guardrail on the left side, smashed through the gaurdrail, went down the embankment on the other side, smashed through another set of gaurdrails along i-10, and landed on the i-10 shoulder. all the while, i-10 had bumper to bumper traffic at a dead stop, so they hear a big explosion, (me busting through the 110 gaurdrail at the top of the hill to their right) look up, and see me flying down the hill towards them while theyre stuck in traffic, i explode through the gaurdrails 5ft from them, and land in the shoulder facing the same direction as the rest of traffic. the whole time, i was just waiting to get crushed by the engine block, kind of a strange feeling.

dude i drive by there everyday i work in downtown. glad u ok and actually every ramp from the 110 to the 10 is almost a 90 degree sharp turn.

@edgar, yeah, those ramps are death traps, they all turn way too sharp, after my wreck ive been on the look out for skid marks on the shoulder walls and there are some really dangerous curves in LA, the engineers must have been planning for 24/7 5mph traffic, cause some of those turns make you go from 70 mph, to 25-30 with only 50 yards warning, those walls have a lot of stories to tell, especially the highway interchanges 110/i-10, 110/101, 110/105, 5/i-10, the only one i can think of that has as good angle is the 405 south from i-10 west, LA has some ****** up highways, i hate liberals

not mine, but this one was a similar crash except the driver didnt have a hill to roll down once he busted through the guardrail

 

[Gzes]

damn lost an ear...

 

[Bunty]

Damn man, glad you are okay. I hope you get an awesome ride to replace this and that this never happens again.

 

[K_ddsl]

I'm glad you're ok and handling this pretty well after what must be a very traumatizing experience.
Metal can be replaced and I can think of far worse replacements than a SC'ed Esky!
