[Andyk]

Bloody hell Steve that looks nasty..really glad you are OK and no serious injury....

[NZ_M3]

You are a lucky man Steve .... now go out and buy a Lottery ticket !!!

Glad to hear you are okay though and that it wasn't the CSL.

[bryce]

That was lucky, good to hear your OK. Does the 118 have a rollcage :hahaha:

Im sure if that twat had hit you in the CSL, he'd have more than just a broken leg... :smt071

[englebert]

Wow! Glad you are ok, thats incredibly unlucky.

I'm sure the kid is very 'sorry' especially as he harmed himself, but frankly he had no respect for your life, so hope he does time!

OK so I spoke to the Police tonight. The good news is he is insured, the bad news for him is he only had the car 2 weeks. Worse for him is that he has a broken pelvis :shock:

They're charging him with Dangerous driving. Whilst I feel sorry for his injuries and thankful to my well built car for saving my life, the police were agreeing with me tonight that my car could have been a young family with kids in the back, in a lesser car they might not have survived. He endangered lives in a way I've never, ever, EVER witnessed driving as reckless as that before.

That's a bit of good news at least. He's insured. He obviously wasn't use to the POWER of the Ford'y after only having it 2 weeks!

While there is a wee part of me that feels sorry for the guy, he is human and I can only imagine a broken pelvis is kinda sore but as the police said, it could have been a family car, or an older couple or something.

Sometimes we all forget the dangers of the road when pushing on...When you hear of things like this its a bit sobering....If it was my family in the car he would have had more then a broken pelvis to worry about.

As a recovery technician we deal with scenes like this on a daily basis, I have seen cars with less damage that have been involved in fatals.. As echoed very lucky outcome and that includes the other driver with a broken pelvis.

:eeek: as others have said, not good but a least your OK and the other guys not too bad. It does make you think twice when you see something like this as I'm sure we've all pushed on harder than we should at times.

[AlexGTT]

Steve, that is a big one! Very glad to hear you came through that OK and the other guy was insured. I here some frightening stats on the percentage of uninsured drivers these days. Important thing is no-one lost their life. Have to admit, when I saw the title of the thread my heart sank thinking your CSL was involved.

Hope everything is sorted for you soon.
