Luckily no one was injured but a few times I've taken turns a bit extra aggressively that I shouldn't have where I ended up doing a short power slide. There were never any other cars but I would have certainly hit them. I was only maybe 60% sure there were no other cars, I don't plan on doing it again though (unless i'm 100% sure)

So I'm on a main street with 6 lanes, 3 going in 1 direction. The middle lane had about 15 cars stopped at a red light. I'm a bit far from them and going like 45mph so I took the right-most lane which was completely empty. Before I even hit the breaks, the light goes green, so I hit the gas to go even faster and pass everyone. Then all of a sudden some car from those stopped ones decides to fill gas on the right side. He cuts me off, but since the gas station entrance was right next to him, I though he would just drive up the ramp. I hit the breaks slow, But Nooooo.... He took a full stop to make the right turn.
Holy shit I had never floored the breaks like that in my life my entire body was straight. I though that was it and was thinking about what I was going to say to people about the accident afterwards. Luckily he moved his car up just enough and my breaks stopped the car at the right time. Moral of the story... Don't trust anyone else to be a good driver... (I don't think that would have been my fault even though i was going 45 on a 40.) I end up honking about 2 times a day on people who cut me off or think their car deserves 2 lanes. |

I let my buddy drive it yesterday and I told him to give it some gas around a sharp corner. He didn't hit anything, but I forgot about the case of beer in the trunk that we had just picked up. The box slid and slammed into the side, breaking one of the bottles.
Once we got to my house, I did my best to clean it up, but the interior of my recently detailed BRZ now smells like I just got back from a long night at a bar. Why the hell did I not just put the beer in the floorboard or in the back seat? |

It was about 2 o'clock in the morning and my car was pretty much entirely stock except for a pulley. I was taking a left hand turn from a stop light. Since no one was in sight I was curious if the car would light the tires up, needless to say the car will spin the stockers quite easily and once they are spinning you can keep them going through second gear in a turn...thats when I did an accidental donut in the middle of an intersection...thank god no one was around to see me over correcting the hell out of the car. Nearly hit a curb and had that almost crashed adrenaline rush afterwards.

ok so the story goes:
It was in a modified audi b7 rs4. The trooper had followed me from a distance on the highway and waited until i pulled off on the exit to flip the lights on the unmarked. I was trapped at a red light off the exit, so i flipped my hazards and pulled over onto the shoulder and stopped. The cops door flung open, shouting state trooper hands on the wheel. I had turned the car off and put the keys on the dash, in the side view watching the officer approach yelling, gun drawn, aimed down, but drawn, i damn near shit myself. He approached the door and ripped at the handle, flinging the door open. Told me to get out of the car, he was yanking on my shoulder as i was trying to undo the seatbelt, pulling me out of the car and pushing back against the rear door. holstered his gun as the other marked squad cars and the patty wagon cruised in and surrounded the car, flinging their drivers doors open. I was handcuffed and walked to the back of the car while the trooper patted me down, asking if i had anything that would poke him, told him no and he took my liscence. I had a passanger in the car, a young women who I was showing off for. Scared stiff, and understandably so, as there were 3 marked cruisers in front of the car doors open, heads poking out between the gap of the door and the apillars. The trooper told me not to move from the back of that car. There were lots of swear words in that, but im giving you the clean abridged version. That was the longest 10 minutes of my life. When he came back, i could barely look him in the eye as he started telling me "weve got you on public endangerment, intent to kill (because i had a passanger), wreckless driving, civil disobedience (when they had the fees here, wouldve been 200k$ fine), mandatory 1 night in jail for evey mph over the speed limit, and the car is to be impounded immediately." I can't tell you how far my heart sank and just how stupid i felt at that moment. Pretty sure it was visible, because the state trooper and I had a 20 minute conversation, more of a lecture as the only things I could really utter out was "im so sorry". At the end of that conversation, he told me "i hate this area and I dont ever want to have an excuse to come back here, EVER" then told me he was giving me a second chance to have a life and to get where i was going 5mph under the speed limit. You better !#% believe i did exactly that. Took me about 10 minutes to regain my composure as the cruisers started to leave. The trooper followed behind making sure i did as i was told. Pulled in and parked at our location, trooper went on his way. That trooper gave me a second chance to have a life that night. I wouldve lost my job, my car, my life. so yes, gentlemen, that was the dumbest thing ive ever done in a car.

Not so much of what I do but what the passengers always do...
When they enter the car they always end up kicking the side skirt... So i ALWAYS have to clean off the dirt mark -_- And then after they enter the car, they go full retard aspergers mode when they try to hook the seat belt into the right slot. They fail and hit close to the cup holder area 2-3 times before they actually LOOK and hook it in. Already have few scuffs because of that. Then after we arrive, they unhook the seat belt and let that thing fly into the side door or the window. What really pisses me off the most is when they ask if they can smoke in my car after doing ALL of the things listed above. I would say no anyway even if they didn't. |
