#1: How much T Cut am I going to need? Author: the_bowman, Location: Leicestershire (Ashby de la Zouch)Posted: Wed Aug 04, 2010 1:55 pm ----
My first accident
Happened on a road near my house... driving along (carefully cause of the rain!) when suddenly the steering wheel spins to the right. Car started sliding head on towards a huge tree. I tried to correct it, ended up slaloming down the road, just couldn't get it under control.
What I remember is going sideways of the road, the car tipping to the left, hitting something (which I assume was a tree/trees) and bouncing back up onto the road.
So yeah... what annoys me most is that I could probably accept it if I was driving quickly/dangerously/stupidly, but I was actually taking my time plodding along.
Bad day

#9: Re: How much T Cut am I going to need? Author: the_bowman, Location: Leicestershire (Ashby de la Zouch)Posted: Wed Aug 04, 2010 2:10 pm ---- Hmm... aqua planing could be possible... now you mention it I suppose if I was turning the wheel a bit at the time it could suddenly go... I'm not sure whether it was like that or it was torn away from me.
I do feel very lucky to walk away after I was heading towards a tree... thing is it's a car that me and my mum share, meaning we need a replacement soon so she can go to work :/
Too much to claim on insurance, with a £500 excess, so I'm thinking of breaking it, engine still runs fine, my dad drove it to a friend's house nearby, bumpers seem to be intact, front end and driver side seem fine, so might be able to get some pennies back on it
