blakep82 - 17/8/09 at 03:13 PM

thats a weird one, doesn't look badly damaged from the front


vinny1275 - 17/8/09 at 03:20 PM

They make those bumpers strong, don't they?

At the risk of generalising an entire generation of motorists, was it someone of an elderly persuasion (can't think how many other people would buy such a grey car....)

If it had been rear wheel drive instead of front they could have just reversed off it and driven off!


scotlad - 17/8/09 at 03:25 PM

Ah yes i know the bit- i bet thats caught loads of people out, though i've never seen anyone getting it That wrong before!!

Was it a fatal?

I thought Darwin awards had to result in death?


macspeedy - 17/8/09 at 04:34 PM

well the drive wont last long driving like that!

You don't have to be dead to get a darwin, only incapable of passing on your stupidity.

Its only an honourable mention but its a nice try

It's a shame people that stupid can afford a new car

He was lucky. A few feet left, and he would have hit that ambulance, and then how would he get to hospital?

Those undertrays are a bit of a pain to get off normally, should be easy now.

like it!


mrwibble - 28/8/09 at 03:52 PM

i'm interested i how he got out?


Ninehigh - 28/8/09 at 06:17 PM

The tow truck probably dragged it off...

As to how the driver got out of the car, that drop probably hurt more than the accident!
