Crazy Night

the reason im posting this in the camaro forum is b/c the wreck i was involved in last night involved a camaro. I was ridin with this 17 yr old kid i met the night before ( who has .....or had a beautiful 35th Ann. SS), and..........well he lost it.

He was trying to show off and the rear end came out from him on this narrow road at about 65. He just hit this turn way too fast and then DOWNSHIFTED INTO 2ND. As we were spinning i was like holy shit.....

He hit a tree on the side of the road(we were both wearing seatbelts), came to a stop, and i took off. He was under the influence so i opened the door and ran. I talked to him later tonight and he said that he drove his car away from the scene. Apparently he slid the rear passenger side of the SS into a tree. Luckily it involved no other cars.

i posted this is b/c the experience scared the living hell out of me. Im lucky to be alive, and am stressed at the moment...be safe guys

Ok, well first off it is a damn shame that a car like that was hurt because some inexperienced kid was drunk and being a dumbass. Secondly, don't be stupid people, if you've been drinking and want to hurt yourself fine go ahead. Slam a door on your hand or dive into a pool filled with double edged razor blades but damn it don't drive. Drinking and driving is the biggest waste of beautiful cars and lives...

First off.. not a very smart choice to be riding with some one under the influence, let alone to even be letting them drive.

Second.. did the accident sort of look like this?

Same exact thing happened to me when I first got my car. Took a left turn (from a stop) too sharply on a wet road, and bam. If I would have steered as if I were drifting then it wouldn't have happened. But I just kept turning left so it kept sliding. First time ever driving a RWD car, and I learnt the hard way between the differences of it and FWD cars.

Explain how you tell us that your friend was driving drunk and then tell us to drive safe.. WTF. He shouldnt be driving when he's drunk, why didnt YOU drive? Or let someone ELSE drive the damn car instead of the guy who was drunk.. dumb bastard :disappoin

Well, he did say he only met the kid a couple nights ago, still stupid though. Kinda pisses me of that some 17 year old has a nicer car than me and doesn't respect it.

Doesnt matter if he met the kid a second before he got into his car or a year ago, he knew he was drunk or had been drinking and let him behind the wheel is what matters.

Yeah not a good idea rideing around with a 17 year old kid thats drinking...lol

might as well just let some 3 year old drive.

might as well just let some 3 year old drive.
A 3 yo might be able to keep the car between the lines...lol :rofl:

A 3 yo might be able to keep the car between the lines...lol :rofl:

yea, just be like 'ok kiddo, keep the car between the lines, and make sure you can see about 10 feet of black top between your bumper and the guy in front of you's back bumper' i bet it will work out ok.

driving drunk=dumb
driving drunk and getting in a accident=retarded
driving home drunk anfter getting in a accident=TOTALLY FUCKING RETARDED, slap your friend for ruining that car cause he dont deserve dto drive, the little fucker

better yet slap him with a big peice of bloody fish and then piss on his left shoe

ok guys lets not forget he said he ran because he was drinking as well so thats why he wasnt driving, and second he is young as well. lets not forget that when we were that age we thought we couldnt be touched and if any of u lie and say u never drove or rode with someone after u all been dribking im calling bullshit! most of us are ghetto and redneck as hell and we all know that folks like us have done some pretty dumb shit when we were young as well. lets just hope he has learned from this and we wont ever have to worry about his drunk ass running into any of us on the road. im glad u are ok kid, and yes it sucks ass that a wounderful car like that was fucked up

second he is young as well. lets not forget that when we were that age we thought we couldnt be touched and if any of u lie
I think that statement can only apply to like me and you as most of these guys are right there at his age now. As for driving drunk, I agree its dumb and think we all should know better but unfortunetly if I must do so, I will admit to have gotten behind the wheel after having one too many and am very lucky nothing has ever come of it but like Philly says, I now know better or at least I like to think I do.

Okay then.. i'll tell you.. Im 16.. I went to a party where everybody had their own bottle of hard liqour of their choosing and well I didnt drink cause I knew that if I let my friend drink we'd all probably crash especially since it was an hour drive back to my house and the car is a 78 Firebird whose seatbelts dont work, suspension is almost shot, gauges are messing up and headlights are going on and off, so I was thinking HELL NAH.. dont feel like dying and I know we're not invincible so if you feel like calling bullshit on this.. go ahead. :p

well u dont count, im talking about us older guys u are still young and im sure u will have a few dumbass moments before its all said and done, we all do. but smart that u played that the way u did.

I will admit, I have driven home after having one too many drinks. But, I've only done that when the persons house I'm at is only about a mile away from me. If it's a good distance away, then there's no way I'd ever let myself drive. Good thing is, is that I havent dranken in over 6 months. Last time I did, I was dared to chug vodka. And since there were lots of ladies around, I stepped up to the plate. Chugged nearly half of it.. and washed that down with a few beers. Later that night.. I was nearly passed out on the couch, and started getting that gagging reflex and knew I was about to puke. So on the way running to the kitchen sink, I puked all over this guys crutch. It was horrible. Haven't dranked since then.

Unfortunetly, the majority of the drinking public has been there. I have puked up Vodka/Rum/Whisky/Gin/Tequila flavored vomit more times than I would like to count on more people than I can laugh about even now. I think we call those life lessons. Like the time I puked at my bosses house on his new couch at his 50th B-day party and then passed out and had to be driven back to my hotel room by his 2 sons. That made for a interesting Monday morning, let me tell you.

well u dont count, im talking about us older guys u are still young and im sure u will have a few dumbass moments before its all said and done, we all do. but smart that u played that the way u did.

I guess.. probably dumbest thing i've done so far is hydroplane around corners for fun in my Camaro. And yeah I will say its stupid but eh fun nonetheless :)

Ever gone water sking on the back of a car after a rain storm. Now that is stupid and fun.

ok guys lets not forget he said he ran because he was drinking as well so thats why he wasnt driving, and second he is young as well. lets not forget that when we were that age we thought we couldnt be touched and if any of u lie and say u never drove or rode with someone after u all been dribking im calling bullshit! most of us are ghetto and redneck as hell and we all know that folks like us have done some pretty dumb shit when we were young as well. lets just hope he has learned from this and we wont ever have to worry about his drunk ass running into any of us on the road. im glad u are ok kid, and yes it sucks ass that a wounderful car like that was fucked up


1.) He never said he was drinking...

2.) Before I was 21 I never went anywhere afterI had been drinking, once I started I was there to stay.

3.) I will not say however that I have never done anything stupid because that is bullshit, everybody does it and it usually teaches a valuable lesson.

man, thats such an expensive kick ass car to wreck like that, i worked very hard for everything i own and couldnt afford to be stupid like that, when i used to party i would give their parents my keys to make sure that i couldnt go anywhere and when we would have parties at my house with anywhere from 30-80 kids at a time my mom would take their keys too and they were cool with it...it wouldnt be so bad if i was drunk and killed myself but if i had to go to a lady and tell her im sorry i was drunk and i killed your child when i was showing off in my car would be horrible...i dont think i could do that....my ex girlfriends dad was sober and with a car load of guys who were drunk...he was in the front seat and they all got out to pee and a guy called shotgun so he got in the back and they hit a bulldozer doing 100+ and when they got out they grabbed the guy in the front seat to pull him out and he was cut in half...bad stuff.....but im not trying to give him a lecture....im sure he learned his lesson

I just lost respect for this board, everyone does stupid shit. You guys are a bunch of hypocrites, whether on not it's in a car. So tell the man you're glad he didn't die, and that you're glad he learned his lesson. He only came here cause he learned his lesson and he wanted to share it with you guys. So what do you do? you act like straight up ass****s to him.

I think you need to re-read what some people like myself had to say. You can't expect everyone to only see something one way and if some don't see that we as humans sometimes don't use the best judgement, thats there choice and its not your place to correct them or mine.

on with the stupid shit you ppl have done, nevermind MPe488, lets go, on with the stories, btw john, what car did you buy?

Okay.. we're hypocrites because we've already learned our lesson the hard way, and are passing our knowledge onto someone else?? So tell me, when you accidently hit your thumb with a hammer... do you not tell others to be careful, that hammer can really hurt you? Or say you your working on a light fixture and you accidently exectrocute yourself. Do you not tell others when doing the same thing to make sure the power is turned off before hand? I think your looking at this situation the wrong way buddy.

btw john, what car did you buy?I can't believe, based on what you guys were talking about at the time and the prior car I had and the fact I said that I was looking for a practical fun summer car. That you guys can't figure out what type of car I was talking about but being that yes, I am a little ashamed I enjoy the car a little too much :disappoin. I will never admit it. To anyone that didn't already know that is,

I puked all over this guys crutch. It was horrible.

rofl !!! this sounds dirty now. :disappoin

dam. he logged before he saw the new sig.

When you 17 you should drive a Firefly.

I was riding to pick this kid up some beer from the store. he didnt tell me was drunk until we were in the ditch.

driving drunk=dumb

driving home drunk anfter getting in a accident=TOTALLY FUCKING RETARDED, slap your friend for ruining that car cause he dont deserve dto drive, the little fucker

why does everyone think this kids is my friend? Did I ever say that? No. I met this kid like 2 nights ago at a party during a football game. He said that he has been driving his dads eleven second camaro at the strip since he was a little kid. He sure didnt drive like it while i was riding w/ him. He kept repeating the words, "Nah doggg i got choo man.....Its straight dogg..." I wish now that i wouldve stayed at the gas station and called for a ride home.

sweet jesus thank you. Man you guys this just stressed me pretty hard thats all. I always wear my seatbelt and never....may i repeat NEVER ride with a person that i know has been drinking. If Im drunk and hes drunk- im gonna drive. The sad part is about the car and the fact that the kid left a bad impression on me about his decision-making and judgement.

I don't have to bring this up..but I WILL, I'm hearing craploads of stories about underage drinking and I'm not too happy. ......I'm almost 21 damnit! It's not fair at all!

Safe driving for you and your loved ones :iceslolan

I agree...im almost 20, never drunk, never with somebody who was drunk..stupid idea. If you love your Camaro dont drink and then drive it.

Well nastynater, sorry if I came off as an ass. If you would have just explained it before hand like you did just now, then I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have gotten so many offensive remarks. Just from the impression you made in your first post, you made it sound like a typical kid screwing up a nice car his parents probably bought for him, and you playing part in the whole situation. But now I understand better where your coming from based on what you just said. So again, sorry. But by the way, have you gotten to see how bad the damage was? I know the huge dent I got in mine was from a tiny little tree, I almost wanna call it a shrub. I can't imagine how bad the damage must be with a regular sized tree.

its fine man....no offense taken. This kid really let me down. I mean im not even 21 and i was doing him a big favor by putting my ass on the line just for alcohol. I was just telling the kid how he shouldnt speed to hard through these corners...he then overcorrected, gave to much throttle, and we started spinning. This car was so badass. It was red w/ white stripes and was a low mileage one owner SS(it was his dads). I still havent talked to him after the last time we talked which was right after the accident. Judging by the way his car was riding i think he totalled it. I was actually surprised at how clean the damage was for a 65 mph wreck. I think that the frame got a little bent and there is defintely some serious cosmetic damage in the rear.
I have already vowed to myself that next time i will just make the kid pay me some gas and i drive my dam self.

i wouldnt be too hard on the kid, i can only imagine what his dad said/did when he seen the damage.. that's far worse than any comment that can be said on the board..

*one final note, be glad that you're not hurt. and take with you the thought that every little decision you make could be the most important one of your life..

Glad you learned you can't trust everyone and that you're ok Nate. Hell I gave up drinking because no-one else would stay sober enough to drive.

The last time I drove drunk, I was 18, stopped to take a piss, fell over while holding my johnson and pissed up my shirt for like 25 seconds and couldn't do a damn thing about it becuase I was laying on my arms / hands. classic. yuck.

By the way... Now I'm 33, and thinking about taking up drinking just to give myself a vice. Quit smoking almost 5 years ago... that is HARD - I miss it dearly, my Maro's broke so I can't drive it, my wife is 7 mos pregnant so sex ain't happening, too tied up at work to go out, and have no money to do anything anyway. HOWEVER, I did get like 80 bottles of alcohol from my grandfather who died recently. Lotta scotch!!! So I'm thinking I might have to develop a drinking problem. Problem with that is the only time I have to do that is after 9:00 each night after the kids go to bed, and by that time I'm too damned tired to get into it. (See what you guys have to look forward to???)

moral of the story... dont have kids..

lol... Kaotik, you oughtta thank your father & mother for not having your morals.

I think the moral of the story is.. dont be like Jim at 33..

aight i've read through this thread and i've seen posts on how drinking and driving messes your car up and puts you and other people in a hellova lota danger. But if you get pulled over your screwed for a loooooong time. Where i live in va if your convicted of dui, with a .08, or .02 if your under 21, BAC then your extremly lucky if all you get is your license taken away. Your probably facing at least a $5000 fine, 60 days in jail, and a 10 year criminal record. Got arrested, got it reduced to reckless, and still had to pay out the ass and i still am. You can get hurt and hurt your car, but for all of you out there that think you drive better with a few beers in ya, try thinking about what's going to happen when you get caught. I never hurt anyone, or my car, but just because you don't crash doesn't mean that you can't get into some serious trouble.

If my dad had a car like that that i wrecked while i was underage drunk i would never see daylight agian. If the police would of caught him he would be really screwed especially since he was driving a sports car. If you do that around here you wont be able to drive for like 5years let alone all the fines and jail time.

oh yea, all that stuff i said was on the first offense, if your dumb enough to do it again then all the punishments doubles and you won't be able drive for at least 10 years

If I remember over here its like you get your liscense revoked for 3 months, goto jail for some time too and a HUGE ticket.

if you blow a .15 or higher it's manditory that every car you have in your name be intalled with a breathalizer device that costs a couple hundred to intall per car. You have to breath in it to start your car, and every 15 minutes while your driving. If you fail the test, or don't breath at the right intervals the lights will flash and then the car will shut down. every month you have to get the log checked on every car to see if you failed any tests, which costs at least another 50 bucks a month. When you get it removed it costs another couple hundred dollars too.

ok guys lets not forget he said he ran because he was drinking as well so thats why he wasnt driving, and second he is young as well. lets not forget that when we were that age we thought we couldnt be touched and if any of u lie and say u never drove or rode with someone after u all been dribking im calling bullshit! most of us are ghetto and redneck as hell and we all know that folks like us have done some pretty dumb shit when we were young as well. lets just hope he has learned from this and we wont ever have to worry about his drunk ass running into any of us on the road. im glad u are ok kid, and yes it sucks ass that a wounderful car like that was fucked up

i can honestly say i never have, swear on the bible

hey i think the moral to jims story is ...A. you shouldnt stop smoking and drinking...B. dont get married and have kids because u will be forced to beat your meat for the months shes preggy... and C. pissing in your own face and arm is funny as fuck so dont be the ass of a piss joke lmfao....sweet im crying over here...man u pissed up your own shirt...thats such a classic! and if u can really say u have never done anything stupid in your life then u must...A be a morman (dont know if thats right, but im talking about the quaker oats guy lol) or B. u were growing up in a bubble. what kind of guy hasnt done anything dumb? u must be a saint, either that or i did all your dumb things in my lifetime...i took the bullet for u lol

RS92 :nono: ... Just for that lowly comment I'm gonna try to invent a time machine so I can go back 10 months before you were born and throw your parents off a day of two... turn you into one of them Hoochie Thangs you was selling cases of a couple months back.

Philly - *shhh* don't tell anyone, but I catch a smoke and a drink every once in a while. (But it was like 5 nights in a row a couple weeks ago... woohoo!!!) Only thing is, my wife catches me... like every time. I wish I could invent a cigarette that didn't stink, wasn't a carcinogen, and didn't clog up your lungs.... then I'd be like ----> :smokin: :cheers: :boink: :ylsuper: 24-7-365... NO! 25-8-366. Actually more like 30-10-400. I LOVE SMOKING!!!

Alright, now I need a break. Actually salivating.

Glad you learned you can't trust everyone and that you're ok Nate. Hell I gave up drinking because no-one else would stay sober enough to drive.

wow....this post is extremely depressing yet fucking hilarious at the same time. Next time you piss on yourself call me so i can get it on video.
There is nothing wrong w/ drinking alcohol as we all know. You just have to moderate.

ok now i work at a cancer hospital so i wont start pointing my finger and telling u how sad it is to see guys our age in there with throat cancer...i had to put a bag on a 28 year old last week because he had a lump in his throat that closed it, so he had to start radiation treatment. it was sad as hell. i wouldnt want a bag to carry around my poop in all day and a feeding tube put in me at any age, let alone a young age.

... and C. pissing in your own face and arm is funny as fuck so dont be the ass of a piss joke lmfao....sweet im crying over here...man u pissed up your own shirt...thats such a classic!

The aftermath wasn't too pleasant but I have to be honest... had I not completely pissed the 10 or so beers I drank into my shirt, I would have pissed my pants laughing. I think it took me about 10 minutes just to get up, no one would help me for obvious reasons, everyone was laughing and falling all over the place. Had to try to wash off in a muddy swell off the side of the road we were on... complete mess. Luckily that was in the days when Delaware county was mostly rural, not much traffic, cops, or houses. Would have been a much different scenario today.

So yeah.. my lesson to you young guys... Don't get so drunk that you fall over and piss like 4 quarts of beer up your shirt. It doesn't impress the ladies.... or the police for that matter.

I know you dont mean that Jim but okay. :lol:

lmao...jim is the damn best!

Yeah if you ask me.. we should have our own awards thing like they did down in the racing forums.. I know Jim would win the best comic award

hell yeah we should.......and also im demanding the john u suck list be updated hell i've been waiting for my star on that list for over a year now lol

hell yeah we should.......and also im demanding the john u suck list be updated hell i've been waiting for my star on that list for over a year now lol

Well you gotta talk to John about that.. :lol:

I made like a new format for it but he still hasnt given me any names/stuff to put n it so its all up to him.

This stuff is the reason I don't drink much if ever and probably never will. I can't say that i've never had a beer. But thats about all I have if anything or maybe a sip of something just to taste it. Im 18 and ive never been anywhere near drunk. I don't like the risk of doing something ill regret. I may be a square for that but thats ok with me. Besides its much more fun watching other people get drunk off their butts. And to the guy who started this thread( too lazy to look for your name in all of these posts) its good that your ok. I almost feel bad for the other guy(almost) because I wouldnt be able to look my dad in the eye for a longggg time after doing something like that.

Haha.. its true, its very fun watching other people act like retards when they're drunk.
