ive had this happened numerous times and i hadnt done anything wrong =\


A few years ago when I was young lad, I was heading home from a friends house around..2am.
Patullo Bridge closes off a lane at night, I was driving about 55Kph on the bridge, Some truck gets right behinds me and honks/tailgates me etc. So i lighty tap the brakes he backs away a little off the bridge into New west he drives in front of me and cuts me off and SLAMMS ON THE BRAKES! I swerved and almost hit the side wall. By now im like pretty AWAKE now.

So i try to drive slow for a bit and he keeps tailgating me, I don't know what i was thinking at the time and decided to try to outrun him in my dads 1996 civic LX LOL. So i book it and a red light came (uh oh) I slammed on the brake he missed it and ran the red and stoped one block away...by now im like crap theres no left or right turn just straight...I drive up at the green light and HE RUNS OUT OF HIS TRUCK WITH A GUN OR A GUN LIKE OBJECT in his hand and somehow TRIPS on the ground!!!!! im LIKE WTF!!! I DUCK AND FLOORED IT, drove up Royal taking left and right turns.(this leads me to think he was drunk) Pulled over in a house and turned off the lights. I take a few deep breathes thinking that crazy guy is gone...all a sudden I see a familiar light coming out of the alley....IM LIKE WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~
To be continued... (Late for Work)

First, he cuts you off, so you're behind him. Then he's tailgating you again? And then while tailgating you, you stop for a red, but he runs it. Did he drive through you?

I dunno man, your story is kinda holey...

Previously on "Do you ever regret lowering your car"... ..

After I took random lefts and rights, I pulled into a house with lots of cars parked in the garage area. I turned off all the lights thinking it was over, I looked to my right I seen the truck slowly coming out of the alley 0__0 and it stoped.

I quickly turn on the motor and floored it, at this point I was looking for my phone but i don't remember why I didn't call the cops. I think it was the adrenaline and trying to focus on not getting run down, bad mistake.
Now it was hot pursuit the truck was literally blinding me and tailgating no less than a few feet going 60-120KM on city street. I couldn't slow down at the time because I was scared of getting rear ended. But something could have easily went wrong at that point.
We went down this small street, I just got my N at the time and was a inexperienced driver I tried to slow down and I got tapped lightly from behind which freaked me out!!!! -_-

We headed down the road and i realized it was a left or right turn only!!!! DEAD END!!!! I turned my signal to the left and tricked that bitch made a quick right! my car spun out a little and the truck pretty much ran off the road. I quickly than called the police and reported the blue truck and the description of the male, Short buff hill billy white guy with a army beater and a pink mohawk 0__0

I think upon that horrid night and blame the fact that Honda's D16Y7 didn't have VTEC -_-""""

A lot happened, im sure if u read it u can tell the time/grammar put into it wasn't a whole lot.

but since im at work now(FIDO) it's not busy I can explain it more.

Off the bridge it becomes 2 lanes he drives into my lane and slams on the brakes.

I take the inner lane to go to New West

He than goes behind me in my lane following me to New West.

We 're both going straight both in my lane the light turns red.............. he than presses his s2000 engine start button and his car does a 360 and goes invisible and than magically went through my car.

Than this fucking alien came down and started playing the trumpet...

Peturbo 05-07-2010 02:18 PM

Ran off the road? straight through the dead end?

!Yaminashi 05-07-2010 02:20 PM

What was the alien's name?

SpoonFit 05-07-2010 02:26 PM

Peturbo - YEAH HE WENT RIGHT UP THE CURB!!! and like went into the grassy area.
couldn't believe what happened that night thinking about it now.

Coach the aliens name was gumby.

When it always seems that sometimes it you against the world maybe the problem isn't the world. ;)


Im sure ive done nothing wrong.
there are so many drivers who would just do that for no reason. im just driving on the same speed limit.
its retarded. oh well.

FerrariEnzo 05-07-2010 04:55 PM

so anyone know how much it would cost for one of them HID reverse lights?

i guess you need a projector type light to be placed inside the cabin or can it be mounted in the reverse light section of the tail lights?

wobuffet 05-07-2010 05:04 PM

it was posted before...the reverse light housing isn't made to withstand such hot temperature and WILL melt/burn the housing

just make a HID flashlight/spotlight and point it backwards. also comes in pretty handy as an emergency light :)

CP.AR 05-07-2010 05:12 PM

i posted this a while back

NVM saw it on page 3
