  • RIP Ol Blue another one gone!

    well all I can say is I don't know how I made it out with no injuries but for my 2nd head on collision in a festiva I'm very impressed with there safety in a front end impact. Now I am down to only one festiva and will be on the hunt for another, looks like I have to have a backup festy with all the crappy drivers out here. As for the story I was on my way to a buddies all dressed up to go club scene cruising and I came to a stop in a single left hand turning lane with one car in front of me and a cop in the single straight lane on the right of me when the light turned green for left turn and straight we all proceed to accelerate and as I'm following the car in front of me through the turn as soon as his vehicle turns enough for me to see straight there's a big white chevy front end coming and I had no where to go Bang BLOAndnibcb BANG BANG and lucky the cop that was next to me saw everything the fellow driving was fully responsible in he ran the red light at full speed. My seat belt broke but once again saved my upper torso from turmoil WHERE YOUR SEATBELT! The officers on scene were loving my festiva and its trailer hitch but yea got the car dragged home then went clubbin and now my Turbo car will be my DD , And NO im not parting anything out thanks tho

            Glad you're okay!

            It's nice to have a cop there when you need him, eh?

            Right choice!

            Question: where did the seatbelt break? Could you get some interior pics of the belt and surrounding area? Did your seat come loose at all? Thanks.

                            Ive lost a close friend (20yrs old ) and have seen others go worst thing ever and only time will make it bearable, but really education and good influence is where the best impact should be made writing a bunch of tickets will just add to people with suspended licenses and crappy jobs/lives because of there bad choices gotta start early and at home !

                            wish you the best man
