I need soothing, crashed my car :(

I don't know what to do this is the second time I have a car accident and I feel like a complete moron, both times haven't been serious in regard to health, I mean nothing has happened to me or the others involved but I feel like I don't deserve to drive anymore, I'm like dangerous, what's wrong with me? this time the front of the car is all wrecked and it's seems it'll cost a lot of money to fix it :( that's what hurts me the most because I know how hard my dad works for everything that we got and I'm here causing him all this trouble. I feel like shit :(

don't worry man i know EXACTLY how you feel. I'm 18 and i hate being given stuff. my dad bought me a car and i had been driving for a year, NO tickets NOT one accident. Then a day or two after driving for one year mark i pull out of a parking lot and some cunt merges into me. The cop said it was partial fault, and the lady driving had the NERVE to chew me out. Told me I need to pull my head out of my butt when pulling onto the higway when i was clearly already in my lane when she merged into me. Since i was already pending a court date for cursing someone out in public i couldn't say shit to her in front of the cop of all people.

Then the insurance company said it was ALL my fault and since i didn't have money for a 500 dollar deductable my parents did it and i felt like running away. Like giving them back all their stuff and leaving. But i'm sure your dad understands, thats all part of being a parent man. If anything hes been where you are, and probably knows how you feel. Don't worry about it.

thanks

well I know that when my dad was my age he crashed and even landed upside down (not sure how to say it) so he doesn't scold me or anything but that's not even a good thing because I feel I "deserve" the "punishment" or something :sadcrying:

thanks again, your words help :sadcrying:

Well, how about the details? Were you at fault? Were you stoned? Or do you just have bad luck? Anyway, start cutting back on the partying and the fast food and pay for the damages yourself! You'll feel a lot better about it then.

And pay attention to what you are doing! Consider this 2nd accident as a wake up call! It could have been so much worse. You may not be so lucky next time. Pay attention while you drive!! (cyber hit to the head:icon506:) Luv ya anyway!

The main thing to focus on is that you and the others were NOT hurt! Cars don't bleed and there are lots of repair shops! Now go smoke one and figure out how to make it up to your Dad. - Granny:hippy:

well just try being more careful. i would suggest picking up a longboard or a bike (longboardings more fun IMO) and use those to get across town unless you absolutely need to drive.
Sector Nine Skateboards

Gravity Skateboards: High Performance Retro and Longboard Skateboards

my friend told me a good driver is someone who is watching out for everyone else not just her/himself. and it rhymes, i was stoked..hahaha. so yeah just be more careful.

right now I feel like either I won't drive anymore or I'll drive so carefully other people will honk at me because I'll drive like a grandma... :/

and NO I wasn't even stoned, both times sober, and yes it was my fault

stop coming down on yourself so hard.... i realize you feel bad, but just because he isn't making you feel like shi doens't mean you have to make yourself feel like shit instead. they're called 'car accidents' for a reason..... shit happens... and that's all there is to it really....

here have a laugh and cheer up

but... but... I feel like Patrick Bateman, I need a catharsis...

I find it funny how Parents buy there kids new or close to new car's/truck's/suv's whatever and that they end up wrecking them or can't take care of them...

All the car's I have ever owned I have paid for out of my pocket and learned how to take care of them myself. And Ive never been an a accident that was my fault..

I think you grow a greater care and appreciation for things like that when you have to do it on your own.

jaja thanks slipknot :thumbsup: I had seen it already and it's very funny.

thanks really, I feel better already..

I've been thinking: when something happens out of the blue and everyday ordinary... it's almost like a psychedelic experience! I mean, like a car crash, suddenly everything seems so unreal, you feel depersonalized and strange and it's like waking up of a dream...

Well, Nightstar, THAT'S why I feel bad

yeah I can see your point of view.. hope things get better for you. I know that must suck...

Regardless of what happened or how or who is at fault isn't the issue...these things happen in life...it's how it goes...a good friend of mine piled up his company car with his boss riding shotgun on the first day of his job...

Best thing you can do is resolve to improve your driving...be careful and just watch it...there are worse fates in life...and if you dad didn't love you, you'd really be facing punishment...just relax...life goes on and you'll be fine...I know, I was the guy driving my boss...

That is because you entered a negative parabola of energy. Things slow down and then reality hits in.

But that is not important right now. You live in Colombia everyone drives nuts there. I am afraid to drive in your country. If you drive slow you will get killed there.

All you can do is try to make it right with your dad. For god sake drive more carefully from now on.

i don't remember Patrick Bateman doing any driving.....:wtf:

Well... I learned my lesson the hard way, I had a car for about 2 years and then I kinda gave up my driving privledges. I got into a few accidents and all except maybe one or two were my fault. I was also not in school and smoking way more back then, and drove while or shortly after smoking many of the times. After the last accident I was under my parent's insurance plan and the rates would have skyrocketed for them. I felt bad and didnt want that to happen so the only way to do that was to prove I was no longer driving the car by voluntarily giving up my lisence. I have been without a car about 3 and a half years now, but I have matured a lot since then, and when I can afford to get a car again will be much more responsible...

Just be responsible and careful. And if you can't remain assertive while smoking dont smoke and drive.

well Bateman went crazy because nobody ever made him responsible of his crimes...

Yes, Unknown American EVERYONE IS NUTS IN COLOMBIA

That is why I love your country!:thumbsup::D

thanks to you all I actually feel a lot better right now :D

Ok....do this.....go take a big sharp knife and whack off a few of your own fingers. I GUARANTEE you will not be thinking about your car problems ANYMORE!! :S2:

yes if I were a cutter gothic kid maybe I would have made some cuts here and there

;)

And you know....Bateman COMMITTED those crimes because he was crazy....he didn't go crazy later......who else chases around girls with a chainsaw while naked? Something to think about isn't it. :D

Just be glad you didn't get injured.

You can always get more money and buy a new car, but your health isn't that way.

Believe me, it's way more serious when lives are at risk. My friend was driving, and I was in the car with him when the accident happen. Us without a scratch, but they got messed up...

well... craziER then :)

there called car ACCIDENTS for a reason. tomorrow if some rimjob decided to merge into you while you were pulling out of a parking lot and the insurance company austomatically said it was your fault, you wouldn't have this immense story of a flawless driving history.
