crashed my car, only minor damage, was drinking, fuck
i don’t know what to do. i had been drinking but was not "drunk", i was driving too fast and smacked a guardrail causing scrapes and shit to my car, breaking the turn signal cover and putting a dent in the front quarter panel, i’m fine of course, but fuck. FUCK. i’m living with my parents right now, i think im going to write them a letter and leave it out for them to see in the morning, because they’re obviously going to notice my ccar being messed up as it sits in front of the house. i was considering lying and saying it got hit while parked on the street but the damage isn’t really consistent with that and theres no shattered glass/etc around so they wouldn’t believe that at all , fuck. i fucked up. just venting.
Exactly which part are you most concerned about? Your parents bitching?
Don’t lie to them. If they ever somehow found out the truth you would be in much more trouble than you would be in for telling the truth now.
Even though you werent "drunk"… I am an advocate of not driving even after having one drink, no matter how far from the legal limit you were. Be careful and smart. Please.
hell no, the fact that i just did something really fucking stupid
Just tell them someone must’ve sideswiped you when parked.
dont lie, karma’s a bitch.
tell the truth, suck it up, the storm will pass, i promise.
be safe, be smart
why are you hesitant to tell your parents unless you’re still under their insurance and worried their rates will go up because of it?
I’d just tell them next time you see them, people get in accidents all the time, its no big deal if its just minor damage like that.
Sounds like you believe you were either a bit too drunk to be driving or that you know you were doing a ridiculous speed.
You got away with it, so I’d say to take it as a life lesson, that may save your life in the future one day when there is an oncoming 18-wheeler, instead of a guardrail. Put away some money every month, and you’ll eventually be able to fix it without affecting your insurance. Finding one of those "bras" might be able to cover the damage.
As for telling your parents….. depends on your relationship with them. If you have that enviable open, honest relationship, then there’s no need to break that now.
I thought you were a superior human being. Join the military already.
well i told them about it, they’re relatively cool, just disappointed.
it was the speed more than the drinking. i took a tight corner going uphill at probably 60mph (was watching the road more than the speedo), tires/suspension just couldn’t hack it and i went into a drift. it was at this point that i think the alcohol was a factor, my beerbrain was thinking too simplisticaly, my thought process was "shit, i’m going so fast, better slow down" so i braked in the middle of the drift if i had just accelerated even more i could have pulled out of the drift and probably been fine. but i braked, just kept sliding sideways and slammed into the gaurdrail.
the funniest part was my first thought was god damn stupid fucking guardrail i quickly realized that had it not been for that rail i would have been off a cliff
lol, I did that once before 4 years ago. I had just bought a brand new car and took a turn too fast (no one was on the road, and yes I had a few drinks in me) and jumped the median nearly hitting a sign. I warped the tire, split the rims, and jacked up all the supension and steering components in the front passenger side. I was embarressed too so I told everyone I swerved to avoid some animal and jumped the median. That was easier than saying it was my own stupidity.
nobody would believe that from me

Honestly, probably wasn’t the alcohol. It’s EVERYONE’S first instinct to brake when shit goes wrong like that. You’re not thinking logically, you’re going off of instinct, which makes you want to slow down since you’re going fast.

Sounds every bit like too much drinking. PERIOD.
I doubt it… this guy openly advocates drunk driving.
Forget your parents, you are so lucky the cops didn’t find out.
I hope it happens again and that guardrail is gone. Makes me sick when I get pulled over for having a fast car when doing nothing wrong and there are retards driving corners in shitty cars nuder the influence of alcohol.
