Driving fast+no brakes= bad wreck!

These ricer kids and kids in general need a lesson on driving cars fast and safely! I am coming from dinner with my wife going home, on this particular road you can drive a cool 60 -65 mph , it has few fast curves that are no problems for the 8. As were zooming along we past this black Honda Del Sol with a park bench spoiler and black wheels , slammed to the earth...... no biggy, throw the left blinker on and pass him. I look back and I see him coming up on me , now he is on my ***, steady lunging his car back and forth with the gas pedal. So we come to the light and he is too close for comfort , i meen like a inch or less from hitting me. Wife is getting irritated and I am a little peeved at this *** jack being so close up on me.

Were making a left turn which turns into a short strait then goes into a nice long sweeper then a nice long strait away. So the light turns green and i nail it, i pull from him and approach this long sweeper doing 70 mph , keeping her steady, then coming out of the turn i slow down immediately because there is always a cop further down the road on radar, speed limit is 55 mph on the strait away.

This guy is way behind , but you can hear him coming at WOT , his fart can muffler is at full song. He passes us like were standing still, he is fast approaching two cars in the right lane, he is also in the right lane. My wife said OMG , dude isn't going to stop!

The car behind the car in the right lane moves to the left , where the *** jack swerves to the left lane totally clips the one car which is a caviler , send them spinning into oncoming traffic and he spins and flies into the first car in the right lane and both him and the car in front end off on the side of the road! My wife and I stop to help out the victims, this *** jack runs out the car screaming, I am going to jail! Im going to jail! This guy is no more than 18 years of age,and is histerical, the caviler which now in oncoming traffic , two girls were in that car, they were crying and shaken up, my wife is tending to them. The one guy and his girl in the first car are like WTF just happen????

I asked dude why didn't he slow down! His response: I HAVE NO BRAKES!!!!!!

And how fast were you driving?His response! 110 mph on a 55mph ! And why the hell were you tailing me then?!!!!! Guy broke down crying , long story short, cops came and he was affortunate he didn't go to jail, but he got a heavy fine! Dude was affortunate nobody died! His Del Sol was totalled beyond compare , the caviler back end was demolished and the galant rear end was smashed beyond compare. I don't know how the hell he weasled his way out of going to jail, but he did!


Moral of this story, please don't drive fast if you don't have brakes!!!!!! Its stupid and dangerous and wreckless!

What an idiot. Shoulda gone to jail, hopefully would have taught him something.

Glad to hear you made it out unscathed.

No Brakes means no skid marks. The police have no evidence of his speed. His admitting to you would be hear say. I'll bet he got Reckless Driving & Defective Equipment tickets. Depending on you state, it still may not go down well with his license.

no skid marks doesn't mean they have no clue on speed. C'mon CSI could figure out exactly how fast with the amount of damage sustained.

The dumb @ss probably was going to fast and cooked the brakes so they weren't gone, just very very ineffective.

I love a person that is more concerned about their driving record than the people that he just wrecked.

What idiots. Stupid kids. Even rednecks adults do crap like that. A few years ago I passed a Camaro. It made them mad obviously. They started tail gating me, flashing lights, and honking the horn. The road is very tight for about 3 miles. I stayed one speed and would leave them in the corners and then they would speed up on the straights. Finally the corners came too quickly and on the last (and tightest) corner they spun out and backed it into the (deep) ditch on the other side of the road. I did not stop. At least these idiots didn't hurt anyone unlike the kids you described.

I think driving a Del Sol is bad enough. Let alone with no brakes. Good thing everyone is ok. The Del Sol was a waste of metal anyway.

The Del Sol was a sorry follow-up to the classic CRX. Honda should still be ashamed.

that dude is lucky to be still in 1 whole piece + no one else was hurt in this incident.

I truly hope that he learn his lesson, he might not be that lucky next time. He should stop thinking he is making 2F2F: The Civic Chase.

You did a great job btw
