We turned and she took the inside lane and I took the outside . She wanted to get over and did not see me. That's my rear finder

She is paying 100% to fix it plus rental

Sorry to hear that. I'm amazed that she didn't see you when you weren't even in her blind spot.

Agreed. Maybe she never looked?

ah that sucks

Honestly, people don't see me in the FR-S the same way I was visible in my GTI or my M3. I only had my car for a week before the VVT CEL got me and I was almost run off the road twice. We're going to seeing a lot of this

Women drivers?!?!?

Sorry to any ladies reading this but the stereotypes are mostly true.

I almost got hit by a newer Honda Accord sedan a few days ago. I honked, and then honked again... The person still didn't see me as they were switching lanes right on me... And then I just slammed my fist on the HORN! Finally, they noticed... Otherwise I would've been doomed!

Sorry to see this happen to you, OP... :(

Well let's not go into racist or sexist comments

RWD-boxer 09-14-2012 08:54 PM

She was a White lady on the phone !

Horn doesnt help when the other party is blasting their hits on their stereo

Sorry to hear about your car. In Hawaii a lot of people drive lifted trucks/suv. I almost got run over by a lifted Chevy Silverado a couple nights ago just trying to make my way out of the parking lot. I just floored it and burnt rubber :burnrubber:to the other side of the lane, that was when he noticed me.

She's probably one of those who just drives by feel. No need to check your mirrors or use your signals right?

Sigh.. sad to see i'd be pretty mad.

Did she use the excuses:

"your car is too dark"
"your car is too small"

I've had parked cars hit by other drivers 4 times in my driving history and 3 of those times I heard those excuses. They're so adamant about it like it's my fault for not driving a yellow cadillac.
