At least that's all that happened. It could have been much worse, drifting, and learning how to, should only be done in a controlled enviornment, dumbass!

Thats not as bad as what happened before. I was lucky the other times because I didn't actually wreck but this time I guess my luck ran out.



Anyways i was driving to school and decided to practicing my drifting. The air was slightly damp and the roads were barely moist from a light drizzle earlier that night perfect for kicking the rear end out. I was coming on this really wide lefthand turn and tried a power over but i gave the car too much throttle and spun around. Except, there were two garbage men at the corner house collecting garbage...



Here's where it gets interesting. When i spun out the rear end of my car hit the garbage can they were about to pick up!!! HAHA so i was thinking "oh man if they catch me i'm screwed" So i revved my car up to 6k rpms and did a huge burnout in front of them and ran away LMAO!!!



Eh, either way they're probably laughing at me now or something.

Cops bust people that drive imports cause cops are dicks half the time and im not just saying that to say it, it is most often true cause they are power trip bastards. Besides Dramon didnt do anything wrong so Lighten up i dont see why people freak out when anyone post a story about them trying to drift. He was somewhere where there was no traffic and besides you have to make mistakes to learn from them.

how do you know about cops and how do you know that he didnt do anything wrong? you turned 16 less than a month ago. do you even have a car?



p.s. its illegal to not be in control of your car on a public rd so theres at least one offense

He claims that that there was no traffic so the only person he endangered was himself. And i understand and accept the risks of drifting and being the IGNORANT 16 year old i am plan on atleast giving it a try.
