The results of driving at 80
« on: November 09, 2009, 09:01:05 AM »
Many people say they\'ve born twice. Me too.

Some months ago, while I was driving back home from work, I decelerated slowly to allow a big truck get into the highway. Suddenly, and from nowhere, an old French car appeared at my back, braking hard. All I could do was to look at my mirror, hold my wheel and wait for the worst.

The car hit strongly my back at approx. 100km/h and I lost my consciousness for some secs. My head hit the seat and my neck was damaged. Fortunately, no further serious consequences appeared, apart from this:



My brand new Ford Focus... :(

The French driver was nearly 80 years old. The accident happened at 2 PM, sunny day, no fog, no clouds, high way, not many cars and... SLOW REFLEXES. It was his fault. You cannot drive a car if you haven\'t the reflexes to see an obstacle in the road and brake. Old timers should not be allowed to drive unless they\'re 100% able to do so. According to the police, I was not killed thanx to the strong, sound car Fords are. Of course he paid the bill:



About $8000. The car was damaged from the back to the top: doors, trunk, lights, windows, structure... even the control panel and wheel were damaged and displaced. Thx God the front airbags didnt pop up...

Beware the mummies on the road ;)

Scary. Glad you came out of that relatively okay. We\'ve all done that, staring out the back with the rearview mirror as someone comes flying up and jumps on the brake.
 
I try to inch up when that happens to give the guy some more braking room, but if I get hit and pushed up into the car ahead of me, then that part partially becomes my fault, which would suck...

^eh?

If the guy behind you pushes you into the car in front then he pays for all damage.

Depends where you are. In Jersey you are partly at fault if someone else hits you and you hit someone else.

I don\'t think so. His car insurance covered all the damages (as law in Europe demands) so it\'s ok. I called him weeks later to ask about his wife (she was seriously injured in the legs) but it was difficult to talk because he spoke French and I Spanish, so just figure out...

There was no time to even think... it was just like in the movies... you hear a loud sound, you look at the mirror, and there it comes a car so fast that you only close your eyes.

Not really, at least in Spain. The vehicle hitting you in the back is responsible for the damage because (in theory) s/he did not keep the security distance, even if s/he\'s been previously hit by another vehicle. In the case of a 3-vehicle chain accident, each of these pays the damages of the car in front of it (at least in Spain, and I think in Europe too).

Thx dudes ;)

Really? I used to live in Jersey when that happened to a row of highschool kids who stopped short behind a bus and drove into each other. That\'s how I learned about that. I wonder if the law is different in Maryland.

I think in Florida it\'s the same way.  The chick doing the hitting gets the bill.

That\'s what I\'ve been told either way. Not something I\'d like to learn from experience though :)
