car aciedent...

I was in a car aciedent last night, I hydroplaned and skided and spun the car and hit a mailbox, smashed the drivers side window, and went to the ER had 6 stiches in my arm for a cut by shattered glass, I have a cut eye, not sure if I will be able to see out of it. I will try to keep you all updated, I am not sure if I will be on a lot, due to the fact I am in a lot of pain.

Peace, Joe

Hope you feel better real soon. That's tragic.

Hope your better, take care Joe.

Hydroplaned isnt that when your car is in cruise control Ive heard of that

Oh Stallion I do hope your okay and more cautious on the roads in future :o)

"Hydroplaned isnt that when your car is in cruise control Ive heard of that"

^^ No, that is when your car hits a puddle of water, and the tires lift off the ground causing your car to "Hydroplane" and usually cause an accident.

I am glad to say, I will be back soon, get my stiches out tommorow, and my eye is finally starting to heal. :)

Peace, Joe

o god bless you!

well, I just went to the ER again, my eye was in a lot of pain after I put my medications (steriods and antibiotics) in. They gave me a pain reliver and said it would be fine, that my eye had been irretated some how and that is why it hurt and was all puffy. well no big deal right? Lets just hope all goes well and I don't need a cornea transplant.

Ciao, Joe

wow joe, i'm glad your ok. cars are dangerous.

totally already knew that annylese, tsk.x[or annelyese or sumfan.]

I feel for you, Joe. Aquaplaning (or hydroplaning to you Americans) is a nightmare if you're not concentrating on what you're doing and don't know how to correct it. The first time it happened to me I was driving a RWD car (a '78 Marina) with no PAS, at 70, and I'd been on the road less than a year. After fishtailing it around a gentle right bend in the dual carriageway I finally hit the kerb and spun the car 360 along the verge. It was liberally planted with young trees that cushioned the impact enough that the only damage to my car was a bust rim and some superficial panel damage. I attribute the fact we survived so unharmed to the fact that it hadn't been long since I'd passed my test and my instructor had been very very strict on teaching me about oversteer and steering correction.

It's only happened to me once, since. That was in a FWD car with PAS (a '95 Megane) and it was a much more frightening experience as it had been so long since I'd had to deal with it, and I'd never done it in such a type of car. Fortunately it was very early in the morning and there was no one else on the road. Still bounced off the kerb and buggered-up the tracking though. The wife was livid!

Ohh that had to be nerve-racking. It's good to hear you're okay. Be thankful you're alive. God bless you..
