Another Wreck
 
Not my pic but i thought i'd post it. Does it belong to anyone here on the forum? Sad to see but in the big picture its just a car although if i saw mine like this i'd be crying like crazy.

I also saw another wrecked white one on the bed of a flatbed tow truck here in california on the freeway. Makes me wanna upgrade my brakes.

I guess it's like Dirty Harry said " a man's got to know his limitations".

This is old news

Usually not a braking problem.

Generally going too fast, too close or not paying attention.

Possibly got hit from behind and rolled forward or got backed into.

like brzranger said...

Judging by the damage...I say this guy just went too fast and/or drove too close behind a truck and used the brakes too late...and was probably distracted by something, or someone ;)

The brakes on these vehicles are very responsive especially with the lightweight nature of the vehicle. Do not blame the brakes...Could just be a bad driver lol

i think that the front licens plate must have caused it somehow... for 1 the car prolly dont like being drilled into (like mine was) and 2 its gasping for air (not really but and exaggeration here:P) cause the plate is in front of its mouth.

that or it was just so embarrassed about how it looked up front that it just tried to off itself and rammed that lifted truck in front of it.

He needed the trd brake kit. He would have stopped in time.
