Wrecked the truck

Well I was driving down the road last night in my truck. I was in the left lane minding my own business and out of nowhere my budies wrx, who is in the right lane and also ahead of me, starts bouncing all over the road. Sparks are flying, then he loses control starts bouncing and sliding at the same time, S*** is flying everywhere. Im speechless at this point, Im sitting there like "WHAT THE F*** Is GOING ON!!!" When I say bouncing I mean coming off the ground 1-2 feet. It was dark, and i couldnt see S***. At the moment my buddy slides across the road in front of me, also facing me, and slides into the ditch, I found out what was going on. BAM!!!!!!!! I hit the 17 tons of rock and gravel that an 18 wheeler lost when his belly doors on his trailer opened up. 34,000 POUNDS OF ROCK AND GRAVEL!!!!! I was going aboud 55 and Im the lucky one.

Dayum! :eek:

holy ****. you got any pictures?

no i dont have any pictures. Didnt mess the body of the truck up. both front rims are bent front bumper on bottom is cracked and F***ed something up in the front. Steering is all messed up. let go of the wheel and it goes wherever it wants to and vibrates real bad. pulls all over the place. Like I said Im the lucky one. My friends wrx wasnt so lucky.

WHERE WAS THE DAMN TRUCK!!!!!

The 18 wheeler was up the road about a mile or so. No flares, no cones, no nothing.

Sounds like it shouldn't be horrible to repair. The main thing is, you're safe.

Yeah. My buddies car is in bad shape. Bent all the rims, blew out all the tires, put a big hole in the gastank, bent the control arms, the front left wheel is pretty much tacoed and is in the fender at a 45 degree angle, front left strut is bent in from where the wheel hit it, and the body looks tweeked.

Damn man, glad to hear you allright, thats the important thing.

glad you are ok but I WOULD HAVE TO BE BEATING THE HELL OUT OF A TRUCK DRIVER... sorry about the caps... i would assume that he will be paying for all the damages...
