Default RE: my car was wrecked by a drunk.

yeah i know it couldve been worse, the more i get a chance to cool off the more i can think about what couldve happend. apparently he hit someone while driving on the toll road, now i know the speed limit is 55-60 there, so he couldve lost control or something worse. more pics to come

EDIT: pics of beer cans and spilt beer in car on the way, upon further inspection i see ashes (he was smoking) and another wheel with curb rash. both fronts. my dad got home with the bumper it will be on within the week, it hurts to look at the car, when i saw it it was like someone punched me in the gut... my mustang never deserved this.


spilt beer:


ashes from what i dunno:


this is a different wheel than the one that shows the tire ****ed up:

Does he want to looseeverything he has worked for?? What if he killed someone in your car??Friend of the family or not, thats B.S.I don't take things like that lightly. F-that.

its not that the damage is SO BAD its that a trusted family friend, and mechanic would take my ****ing car, he knows how much it means to me, and the drive it DRUNK and WRECK IT. the writing on the wind shield is from when my parents went to go get it out of the pound. oh and someone stole my 250! dollar tool kid out of the trunk.
Let him prove to you that he is indeed a trusted family friend by PAYING for his damages and stupidity.

If he doesn't, screw the friendship and take his *** to small claims court (make sure to file a police report and let your insurance company know as well, cover all your bases).

[sm=insomnia.gif]Drunks have no respect. I know it sucks but remember not to make your dad feel bad, it's not his fault..Fix the car and make the guy pay for the damage both ways (personally and financially)..With all of our twisted minds behind you we can come up with a suitable punishment ..[sm=violent053.gif][sm=shootshoot.gif]

He should pay for the damages and then some (more like a lot)
Drunk driving is a serious offense and he should be grateful you guys haven't called the police (yet?)
