You should really find a job that pays more than minimum wage

You had no business leasing an FRS. After you spend some time in serious drivers courses, get some local advice on how to make better choices with your money.

So we share the road with people like him...

At what point does the state just take away someones drivers license?

Wait.... How the hell.... I can't...... I don't even.....

All you people joking about my misfortune are assholes. You people are pathetic, I can't believe I had this forum as my homepage for almost a year. For this of you who actually tried to help: I greatly appreciate it. Calling me a liar and shit, I don't have time to prove everything. It's possible to work that much and do well in school, that's the reason I got this car..to get me to college. I had a shitty Trans Am with shitty brakes and the worst luck. Don't tell me to leave space, 2 of the accidents involved someone cutting me off and slamming on the brakes to make a turn. Amd lastly, I can't believe people are actually joking about a devastating storm that hit at least 2 schools and killed over 50 people. I was actually getting upset about the replies but screw that, you are all just a bunch of assholes

GT 86 Brah · 05-21-2013, 01:08 AM

This you OP?

You bought a sports coupe to get to college?

edit: you shouldve got a FWD sedan. All these wrecks and you think a RWD with prius tires will help?

Bus pass...enough said. And why hasn't your license been revoked yet with "15 tickets and 4 at-fault wrecks in the past 4 years". Sorry but I smell BS.

Stop fucking texting and have respect for the other people that share the road with you unknowingly!

-Since I have a bad record, my dad has insurance on the car but I drive.
-I'm a full time student
-I work 55 hours a week making minimum wage.
-I've been leasing the FR-S for 7 months

So a few days ago I rear ended a car and caused 7k worth of damage to my love. Insurance is fixing the car but I will have to get my own insurance. I've gotten quotes at around $800 per month! As a student, I can't afford to pay over $1100 per month to drive this awesome car. Since this car is leased, what options do I have? I can't imagine working all summer to buy a POS Civic and still pay $300 per month for liability. I'd appreciate any kind of advice.

Sorry, light accidents. The TA was low so it only left scratches. Scratched a Mercedes and couldn't pay the owner the $1k in cash so went through insurance. Pretty much the same story for each little accident
