[quote]Alan O. Thompson was driving a 1995 Honda car on Highway 290[/quote] A Honda Car? whut Also I couldn't tell whether that was a Civic or Accord.

Well obviously, in the state it is right now, it's nothing more than a pile of scrap metal with a badge, so it's why they just call it a Honda Car :v:

Was an Accord

Was? It's still an Accord. Just now they have to list it as "Slightly used, one ding in front bumper. Paint chipping on hood."

To be honest, I think it should be illegal to sell cars that have had frame damage unless the buyer knows about it.

It [i]is[/i] illegal in most states to not inform the buyer of previous accidents. [editline]26th January 2012[/editline] Lemon laws or w/e

Do you guys not have companies you can call to inspect a car thoroughly for you? Here in the UK both the AA and RAC offer a service for professionally inspecting a car before you buy it. I hate people who intentionally try to sell you a metal coffin.

I thought so, that Galant we had for 3 days was apparently in 8 serious accidents according to CarFax. Shame too, I loved that car.

Speaking of Accords!

There is also a v6 Mustang that parks in the same lot that has an absolutely horrible amount of bodykit and mods. I'll take a picture of that next time I see it. Fucking bro's and their hotwheels cars.

Why, I do believe that's a Civic.

[QUOTE=Tezzanator92;34392225]What part do you want to know more about? Any idea what the model number is so I can look it up? Anything specific you need/want to know?

Checking if your radio already has an aux in: Sometimes the makers of these things, in their infinite wisdom, decide to put the auxiliary in on the back of the unit, it's just a case of either pulling it out to check, or looking for a picture on google images of the back. Such as this: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/286964/243559.jpg[/img] They've got much better, with all this ISO and DIN standardisation. I installed a radio into a classic mini, hell.

You guys know that new japanese fad to have as much camber as possible? I saw an accord like that today, The rear wheels were like, ten degrees from being on the ground :V. And he had the nerve to pull up to me and rev his little fart-machine. I lol'd, took a puff of my cigar, and drove off (after the light turned green of course.)

Finally, got a new car after my accident on christmas eve. Got a 2002 volkswagen passat :D

[img]http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/4782/baddrivers1.png[/img] This happened to me last night, i hate it when people do this shit. Basically, the picture is showing someone turning onto the road from a parking lot or something, and he cuts into my lane at the last second (i was literally that close when he did it, going about 45mph) and i had to practically swerve into the ditch to not hit him.

I hate when people go at/under the speed limit in the passing lane on highways, those people seriously need to learn when to fuck off

I ride the passing lane unless is see someone coming up on me, then i move over If there's no traffic i ride the right lane until i need to pass though. Hate when the person in the right lane is going 50 in a 50 and the guy in the passing lane is going like 52

Usually tailgating them/flashing your high beams at them gets them to move, unless it's one of [b]those[/b] people. Then you just wait till there's a line of 8+ cars tailgating the person in front of them and hope the one in the very front comes to their senses :v:

I hate people who cut corners at small road 4-ways. [img]http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/6007/ihatetraffic.png[/img] People do this all the time at the intersection in front of my apartment. I feel like I'm going to hit someone moving up to the stop sign sometimes. How hard is it to slow down a bit and turn in a wider arc?

I think it's safe to say that ~45% of the drivers in America don't deserve their licenses

Oh god this has to be annoying, specially when you arrive to brake at the goddamn stop line, and then bam someone nearly rush toward your front bumper and then they give you funny looks, like you were the one doing something wrong. Stupid asphalt drivers.
