What happened? This is a case of hit-and-run, my third in less than 3 years in Weehawken, NJ. Fortunately no injuries involved, but I am so fed up with street parking and suffering damage to my vehicle with no note, witnesses, or any sort of acknowledgement from the offender. This particular case resulted in over $1000 worth of body work to replace the rear passenger door, plus a week of having to pay for a car rental while my Forester was in the shop. Even though insurance covered most of my cost, I am still seeing red. Weehawken, NJ has to be one of the worst towns in America for driving, parking, and common courtesy. Avoid it at all costs!

What happened? my son was crushed by a 250 chevy bus van when his car went out of control on a turn on 850 west and spun across the center line . you can see that this junk toyota was hit on the right side and it drove that side within 6 in. of the drivers door. lots of protection for anyone riding in these death traps . what happened is unknown but my son was a super sportsman race car driver and had lighting reflects ,he could avoid accidents on the track like no other driver I ever saw . so what happened to him ,the car or was something on the road? we will never know. this picture needs to be seen if for no other reason then for buyers to see how unsafe this vehicle is.

What happened? I was driving from my house in Pocono Lake, PA to go meet my friend for a 10-mile run through the trails in Tobyhanna State Park when my car slid into the shoulder, caught some loose gravel under the right tires, and left my control. It happened in an instant, like these things tend to do. The car actually picked up speed as I lost control. It was such a sunny day. That's one of the main things I remember, how bright the sky was through my windshield as my car cut across the road and took flight. My thoughts, in quick succession: Oh shit. I can't stop this. This is gonna happen. It's gonna be bad. Oh god please keep me safe. A huge SMASHBAM as my front tire hit a boulder and the car winged up with a frightening whir of the engine. Help. And my car was spinning, flipping through the air and I was sure I was going to die, my body crushed within my crappy Toyota Corolla. Ohgodno.
