    What happens when people go the wrong way on one-way streets...

    On our way to breakfast and going through an intersection about the time a lady comes the wrong way on a one way road. I locked em up but couldn't avoid her...wound up hitting her passenger side quarter panel. Didn't get pics of hers but here are mine. Didn't even hardly feel the hit...pit maneuvered her though, spun her sideways and I think she had it floored trying to accelerate realizing she was about to get hit. She was sliding sideways after I hit her with smoke just rolling off the tire. She actually did a pretty good burnout. Everyone was ok at least, that's the main thing...

    Maybe. Could have possibly stopped better and avoided her. But if he wouldn't have been able to avoid it the damage would have been worse yes.

    No way I could have missed her no matter what I was driving. She came from under an overpass and by the time I saw her (both going 45ish) there wasn't any avoiding it.

    Looks like you need Jon to build you a tougher bull bar.

    back in high school, there were a bunch of one-ways around the square, but most were poorly marked so there was the occasional noob who would be coming straight at you. the worst one i saw was a tractor trailer at night - talk about crapping a brick!
