![]() Suprised the damage was only 3.5 k, looks a bit more substantial in the pic, and he holed the sump as well. Dry sump I assume but would still hold some oil. I'm suprised either the taillight or rear bumper he needs wouldn't be 3.5 k on their own. |

redneck?????
even if the correct term was used, i doubt it would be correct the damage suggests to me that the impact speed was fairly low if he was driving like an idiot (especially if he hit black ice), i assume the damage would be considerably more - or he was desperately unlucky that he slid for so long and only just collected the fence post |

He is a truck driver. He probably has more driving experience then most people here.
He may of been driving stupid, but there is a good chance he was driving sensibly and just had a lapse in judgment coupled with a bit of bad luck. Look on youtube for videos of cars driving in snowing conditions in the US. They take a corner at 10mph, lose control and crash into every other car on the street. |
