He really ate it bad. A car pulled out in front of him. He swerved and hit a concrete pole. Neither him nor his G/F had on seat belts. That saved voth of them. She got thrown from the car and only was scratched up. He was in a coma and is awake now but a little screwed up. Hopefully all the pistons will start firing again. Every week he gets better.

Here is where it sucks. While he is fighting off a coma and death. The wrecker yard is busy stripping his car clean. This was not an ordinary WS-6. It was turbo charged and had over 10K of Audio Visual gear inside.

RWHP close to 700. His brother heard a rumor that is was being stripped and got it out of there. A lot of stuff is missing. He took a cop to the wrecker yard but everybody played dumb beacuse the cop knew the owner. They made off with some A/V gear and the intercooler. Believe it or not it survived the impact. The owners son was trying to sell the Turbo but the car was gone before he could pull it.



Here is another shot of it look closely and you can see whats left of the front right rim. Also the bar going across is all that is left of the door its the safety beam.

Here is the right rear rim.

That is too bad about the accident, and I hope your friend gets better soon.



But... wearing your seat belt is a lot safer than not wearing it. There may be instances where it is better to not have one on, but you don't get to choose after the impact, and it is usually far better to have the belt on. Perhaps even in this accident, your friend would not be in a coma if he had his belt on. Your message seems to be intended to encourage people to not wear their seatbelts or (more likely) justify your own refusal to use one. It is much safer to wear your seatbelt. Always wear your seatbelt.

damn that sux, hope he recovers fully

Police and Paramedics said his chest would have been caved in and neck snapped if it was on.



I ALWAYS wear my seatbelt. This is in no way to be interpreted as a dont wear your seatbelt thread.



This particular accident was a freak occurance where not wearing one saved lives.



His G/F would have been dead too. She was actually ejected through the open t-top and bounced down the sidewalk face first. She was screwed up to but in essence walked away.

****!

Ouch!!!! I don't think I would want to go bouncingdown the sidewalk on my face. I think his brother needs to sue the recker yard for the missing parts if he has proof that they were installed on the car. It's thier responsibility to ensure that the car stays untouched untill the owner or insurance company comes to get the car. Even if they weren'tstealingthe parts themselves they would still be liable for them. That **** is totally wrong. Guy's in a coma and some jackasses want to steal **** off his car. That **** pisses me off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The pics are way too small. :squint: Sorry about your friend

wow sad to hear about it .......... hope he gets better

best wishes to him and his family..........really sucks that this was not his fault

holy cow that car looks like it is royally screwed. i remember when i flipped my car, i was like oh **** this is bad. i had two people with me in my car and myself and my friend who was in the front, we both had our seat belts on, but his girl didnt who was in the back. paramedics said she would have been seriouslly hurt if she had it of because of the crushed roof. then the paramedics said that if my friend and i didnt were our seatbelts we would have died.we all walked away. my car went to the dump with a frame that was broken in eight places. i guess when you flip a car eight feet in the air and for a distance of about 25 feet. it doesnt hold up well. i hope your friend gets better. just remember to be there when he needs you. just being there makes all the difference in the world.

hope everything gets better from here

holy ****. I would've never expected the driver to walk away from it.



hope your friend pulls through.

Damn, that's a scary looking car...glad to hear both are alive! When my car was in an impount lot it got searched and some **** got broken, and there was pretty much nothing I could do about it...that **** really pisses me off!

Damn, that does look pretty bad.. Good thing they are both alive..



A relative of mine feel asleep at the wheel while driving home from work like at 2 in the morning.. His car went of the freeway on a curve and flipped over, the roof crushed down cause of the impact, if he had been wearing his seatbelt, he would have been crushed..

That's just another freak occasion where not wearing a seatbelt saved a life.. Wierd huh?

Thats bad. Best wishes for the friend. As for the yard? Blow them up. Same **** happened to me. Fuckers made out with all my CD's a video camera, tools, and a bunch of other ****. ******s.

9BASE3, how many HP did the microwave mod give you?



It's pretty sad to think of how much theft there is in situations like this. It's kind of like that guy on 20/20 who would steal people's estates after they died, not even notifying the family...

holy ****.
