** 5er Destroyed**

Hey guys i dont think iv ever posted pics of my car accident. Well as everyone knows(well most bmw enthusiasts) the e28's are tanks on wheels.

This was about 2 years ago. I was sitting at a red light, stopped for about 10 seconds. Look in my review mirror and see this coming straight at me, not slowing down at all....






So needless to say it smashed me going about 70km/h, sent me flying about 100 yards ( a football field or so) and completly destryoed my car!!!! So after i come too,( oh ya i smashed my face on the steering wheel, my seat ripped out completly and i was reclined fully into the back seat) I was pretty pissed off. Turns out the bus driver was high on something, on his way to pick up kids from school and just smashes me from behind, not even braking!! Here are a couple pics that I snapped of the after effect







My one friend that was sitting up front wasnt even wearing his seatbelt and the worst thing that happened to both of us was a bruise on the forehead and some whiplash

Good old diving board bumpers LOL for soooo long i wanted to take them out

Seatbelts are a good idea, espescially when one of those are coming at you lol

Just read an article on cbc.ca on street racing ...

Damn, even the roof caved in, but yeah, considering it was a bus, it did take it well...

And I know what you mean about the occasional pain, every now and then my shoulder will hurt from when that lady totaled my stang

One thing I learned from my wreck is that next time you know you'r about to get hit, relax your body as much as possible that way it won't hurt as much

Yeah i mean what kind of idiot goes to pick up elementary kids high out of his mind?!?!

Hopefully there wont be another accident but i guess you never know....damn i wish i would of taken pics of the interior when the sits were ripped out from the impact, im pretty sure if any one would of been in the back they would of either broke or lost both legs.....thats how far back the seats were, they were digging into the rear seats!!

holy crap, thats incredible. in most american cars of today, you wouldnt have a car any more.

and as rooz stated, i also learned when you are about to get into an accident, you are supposed to go totally limp.

i really hope that guy/girl had to pay some serious consequences, because picking up kids in that condition, deserves jail time.

yeah, thats why drunk drivers are never injured but their victims are.

i think when i had my accident that why i wasnt in too bad shape. i have been in a few accidents in my time and have always remained a limp noodle. but in a split seconds time where an accident occurs, anything can happen.

yeah like in my wreck where I almost got hit head on I tensed up my body, I think it would be hard to kinda relax your body when someone is about to hit you.

Unfortunately in canada, our liberal justice system doesnt do too much about these sorts of incidents.
