Driving home from work this afternoon I had the misfortune of having a women try to save fuel by putting her s h i t box toyota yaris into the back of my ute. The end result is not a pretty sight. Heres a few photos for you all to see.To say that I am not impressed is an understatement!

I reckon I would be on Charges if somebody did that to my GT. At least with yours they will replace the styleside, provided they paint it well should be as good as new

Not nice to see. I have a friend who has a blue echo, and she is the worst driver I've ever had the misfortune to get in a car with.
I thought it might have been her, before I read the whole post. Hopefully it can be repaired, and she pays up!!

Thats heartbreaking, hopefully they will put a whole new rear end on and not repair/bog it.

Have to agree with fiery - nothing to do with gender. The only drivers who've ever hit me have all been male. Three of them reversing without looking whats behind them. Maybe females are good at hitting something in front while looking backwards and males are good at hitting something behind while looking forwards.
Sorry to see anyway - its pretty upsetting. You probably didn't even have the compensation of meeting somebody good looking. Get a Land Rover mate - you won't have to worry. Just stand back and watch them pick the bits of the other car off.

I think people are missing the point, I really don't think his comments are supposed to be sexist or offensive. It's a nice car i'd be p*ssed out of my mind too
When she said the new car comment she obviously did not realise that her car was worth about half as much as yours. |

Is that around the fox hills golf course ? that must pain you some , id be upset too, accident or not.
Running up the back of someone is lack of concentration most times, and if it was in silly hour ( school pickup/dropoff) well you know what thats like :eclipsee_
