Default bad thing

I use to be the proud owner of a 1991 mustang GT. That was until last month when I was driving home from my buddys house in Belleville here in Wisconsin after a few drinks (under- age). I live in Evansville whitch is about 15 miles away. I just got out of B-ville when I saw lights behind me, to be exact they were red and blue lights. This is not a good position for me so I dropped my little Pony into third and dusted that cop. Unfortonatly for Me their was an S curve about half a mile up ahead whitch I hit at 130mph. I made the first curve but the second one was a diffrent story. I Somehow lived after flipping end over end even with my seat belt on. I only got a craked nose and pelvic bone anlong with stitches on my forehead and staples on the back of my head. Plus a lot of bumps and scrapes. My brother and good friend went to get anything they could out of the car when I was still in the hospitol. They walked right past the car on the flat bed because they didnt even recognize it until they saw the last remaining 5.0 emblem on the side. I only got an OWI out of it but Im lucky to be alive. So the out come of this story is dont run from the cops (unless your sober and can make corners). So Im joining the Marines and Im buying a 2007 mustang GT/CS after I get home from boot camp.

P.S. I dont need a bunch of *** holes calling me a retard or how stupid I am. I already realize that what I did was wrong and Im not looking for simpathy I just wanted to share my story. So if you dont have anything nice to say then dont say anything. Ill try to get pics on hear so keep an eye out for them.

Good choice on service. I'm in the OCS program right now, will be a commissioned officer when I graduate. At boot camp, do nothing that will draw attention to yourself. Don't volunteer, don't try to be the best of the best, nothing. Blend in with the crowd

Sorry to hear about that... i'm sure you got a ton of "fatherly" comments about that! Glad to hear you made a full recovery and tip of the hat for joining the Marines. Best of luck at camp and with your future mustang projects!
