Oh man!

Didnt you just spin your FC recently? That really really sucks! Two cars in a short period of time... wow. Must not be your month. Good that youre OK on both accounts though. Good luck getting the FC back to pristine condition and good luck on finding a new beater https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

He he, we'll see if I can still move tomorrow. Honestly I don't think I am injured. I broke the passenger seat apart with my body mass as my car was launched forward. I wonder how many G's that was. My Gtech was not hooked up at the time.



I'd be happy if I got a couple thousand to get another beater with. I've always wanted a late 80's 16v Scirocco for some reason.

wait, were you the driver or passenger?

you realize even though you got rear ended which caused your car to be launched into the alfa infront of you, the fault for your car vs the alfa lies on you.



The initial collision between the taurus and you is the taurus's fault, but the secondary collision even though it was caused by the intial event from a 3rd party means your insurance company pays the alfa insurance company.



Well that is how it works here in Toronto. I'm not sure about you, i know in different provinces in Canada there are different policies.



If your insurance company is paying to re-restore an expensive alfa, you can be damned sure you are on the NO NO DO NOT RENEW 88integraLS's insurnace when time comes or they will raise your rates once they settle.

That is the most ridiculous **** I have ever heard. If someone smacks you from behind at 40+, your car is going to move forward beyond your control. How could being the center billiard ball of what turned into a pool match with 3000 pound objects be anyone's fault but the original projectile's driver in command? Bullshit.

I hit a Camaro from behind at 35mph and she hit the car in front of her who hit the truck in front and I had to pay for all 3 vehicles... it wasn't their fault.

glad to hear your ok. Now go find a lawyer so u can be driving a FD

He was hit by a Taurus. Really. How much do you think he will get?? He is lucky if the Taurus driver was actually insured.

i think in Cheers! might be refering to a different scenario. I believe he's refereing to this. If the car ahead of you stops and you rear end it, then you're insurance company has to pay. And if a 3rd car rear ends you, who rear ended the 1st car, then this 3rd car has to pay for your rear end damage.



But if BOTH of the cars are at a stop, and a car rear ends you and you launch into the car ahead of you, then it's the last person's fault.



I'm sure that's how it works in Vancouver and in New Jersey.



In anycase, damn glad you're ok... are you planning to sue?

CrassFC3S 12-13-2003 09:41 AM

yeah **** that taurus if it would of hit my fc i would of gotten out and stabbed him in the neck with anything within reach, hope youre still feeling cool and hey at least it was only a honda
