Default my mom got into an accident with the A4 =(

fortunately, she is doing fine... just a little annoyed and shaken up. the genius driver in front backed up into the a4 HARD... didn't see my mom at all.

this car had about 3 days until retirement. my mom was going to trade her in for an e320 this saturday. now we have to deal with ghey insurances... on the bright side, we'll be heading to the MB dealer tomorrow morning to get her a new car.

here are some pics:

Default i'm not sure...

i think mainly the reason why it got this bad is because f=ma... expeditions have huge @$$ mass so i take it didn't need much speed... meh... whatever... hopefully my mom will feel better in the morning

Default i wouldnt be surprised if this happened...

one time a old geezer was backing up, and backed into my rear door.

the dumbass must of wondered why his car wasnt moving...

so he started gassing it...essentially ramming my car.

the fvckhead never once looked behind him while backing up.

Default Same thing happened to me but i was in the car backing up....

my friend has a huge lifted cherokee and we were at a jack in a box drive through at like 11 at night. The guy in front of us started backing up so my friend put it in reverse to make sure we didnt get hit by the guy backing up...didnt know there was another car behind us. Actually the jeep was so tall we couldnt even see the ford Escort. Girl in the escort was cool, let my friend repair all damage himself with no insurance mess.... I just felt bad cause she was eye level with the trailer hitch coming right for her, must have been scary :-) Hope everything works out for your situation.
Btw here is the jeep we were in when we backed over the escort...u can see why we couldnt see it behind us :-)
