If your friend who grabbed the wheel is such a good friend ask him to at least cover your deductible. If he says no, well then you know he's not such a friend.

I'm glad everything turned out okay. No lives lost at least.

I wouldn't get into a car with that farquad ever again unless his *** was duct taped to the seat.

Thanks everyone for your kind words. One of my friends was just air lifted to a different hospital to their trauma unit due to some back problems. He is stable they are just being cautious.


I checked the seats and no **** stains were found. Just a lot of dirt.

About the wing I think that was the first thing to go on the first roll. I have found pieces of it all over. Weird thing is and I need to get a picture of it is that there is a chunk of the wing stuck in the barbed wire fence that we flew into while crashing through 3 trees. It is so weird because I'm not sure how it got stuck in the fence. The wire goes right through it and I couldn't figure out an entry point.


It is hard to tell from the pics and I"ll get some better ones now that I have taken a nap, but my whole engine seemed like it was pushed up into the hood. Intercooler is craped, but the hoses are still connected, smashed but connected. I guess I need more boost to pop those suckers off.


About my friend paying the deductible or helping with insurance I'm not going to worry about sense I was not cited or at fault. Since my friend pulled the wheel the officer gave him a "distracting the driver" ticket or something of that sort. Nothing major, but I wasn't at fault. My auto insurance provider has been really good to me so far. They picked up my hospital bill and x-rays and I'm in the works of totaling the car.


One thing that pissed me off about the whole situation was the 911 operator. The stupid ***** asked me what kind of accident was it after I told her I was in the car accident. I know they are trying to keep you calm, but come on. I hung up on the dim wit after telling her I needed two ambulance's.


This has been one of the longest and scariest mornings of my life. You never realize how important your life or others lives are until something like this occurs. I'll keep you guys updated on everything.

I know it is just a car and all, but I would make it a point that that "friend"'s arm never came anywhere near any of my future cars.

I believe he won't be riding in the front anymore.

Not used to it? First off its good none of you were hurt but he put all of ya'lls lives in danger cause hes not used to it? he needs to stop drinking BIG time, and I know that hes your friend but he needs to help you out for wrecking your car.

I would make him learn from his mistake by putting him back in the hospital after he gets out. That's messed up. My ex-girlfriend did that to me once while I was driving, I wasn't on a turn though, and thankfully didn't wreck. She thought it was funny, I wanted to knock the teeth out her mouth. Sorry about the car man.
