shiiiiiit. hope your ok bud, dont worry about what the other bloke may come out with re: wiplash and associated injuries, have you had a check up yet??

Gutted for you mate. You're ok, that's the main thing. Don't worry about what the other chap will or won't do. That's what you have insurance for, leave it to them.

as everyone has said glad your ok & all the peeps involved ,take care

a car is car ....albeit a zed ...you are your mothers son and in her eyes priceless

you can always buy another zed whenever you can ..look back on this and thank your lucky stars you walked away ...keep on the forum though buddy

Damn unlucky mate, just hope you get your car replaced. Like someone said earlier, at least you're still in one piece! Same happened to me when I was 21, crashed a 280ZX. I was gutted but hell I've had loads of nice cars since.

Could have been a lot worse, you could have crashed a red or black Z! At least no one is hurt.

I know how you feel mate, I wrote mine off last weekend, when a bloody new forest pony ran out in front oe me!...missed the bloody horse but hit a tree when I swerved to avoid it. Luckily nobody else was involved and a kind lady behind me stopped and let me sit in her car cuz I was in shock. It seems that you really don't have to be travelling quickly to totally mangle the exterior of a Z as I was only doing 35 and it's now the size of a 206. Still the interior looks like nothing happened!

bloody hell m8

 

i know what its like to have a bad smash

 

just glad ur ok

 

1 bit of advice m8, get back in a car ASAP, i had to other wise i would not be driving now :)

Sorry to hear that too bud :(

dont feel gutted fella feel lucky dont worry if the geezer claims whiplash thats what you pay insurance for glad your ok mucker was the rd wet

Realy gutted for you,what a mess,glad u ok and no fatalities. :(

As everyone else has said bud - glad everyone is ok. You are insured? If so, then don't give the other guy's whiplash or whatever another thought. That may sound selfish but concentrate on your own stuff dude. It was an accident and you certainly didn't mean to crash into the other bloke and give him whiplash! Take it easy.

sad news mate. make sure if you get any ache's etc in the next couple of days you get to the hospital and get checked over. as some times shock and adrenalin can hide the pain. for the first few hours.

Shit, sorry to hear :( Glad your ok

 

The accelarator sticking is a known problem, please everybody check theirs..read here :

Yes, i think it happened to AdamR too.

Seeing as the police have recovered vehicles are they going to investigate the collision and examine the vehicles? At least that way if the accelerator stuck they can apportion some blame to that.

a big smash is a frightening experience, hope your alright.

you need to get back driving asap cos its a huge confidence drain.the sooner your behind a wheel again the better.

cars come and go so chin up fella!!

regards, nick

Sorry to hear about this mate. Glad your Ok though and don't worry about the whiplash claim if it happen's. That's what insurance is for!

Really sorry to hear this mate, hope you and the other bloke are ok. Unfortunately I wouldn't bank on it being his fault as you shouldn't have been overtaking in an area with junctions. I did the same thing in a small village a few years back. A transit slowed down without turning off or indicating and eventually I overtook him. As I was coming parallel I saw him put his indicator on and I couldn't brake in time to stop from having a collision. Fortunately my insurance was fully comp and I got the car repaired. Is your insurance fully comp? I guess at your age it would be very expensive. Worth at least pushing the advice from this thread about the throttle sticking to the police, hope you're brakes, tyres etc are good though as they'll pick that up.
