Just had an accident :(

[scott133]

Just had a very minor accident in the twingo coming on to a roundabout and the car infront braked really hard and i didn't have time to stop fully and hit him :/

I'm really gutted

 

[DrDrew]

That sucks. Hope there's not much damage to sort out

 

[scott133]

some good scratch remover should sort my car out. the paint was cracked on the other car but shouldn't cost too much i hope

Aw that sucks :/

I take it your not doing it through insurance?

 

[scott133]

the guys is going to get a quote to see how much it would cost to fix and if its cheap enough i'll pay it but if not I'm gonna have to go through my insurance :/ really don't want to being a young driver and all

Leave a bigger gap, the brakes on the Twingo stop the car so well you must of been far too close!

Stuff like this happens, dont worry about it. after all (as people who only know you on the internet) we can never know what else is going on in your life that means you are thinking about something else at the time of the accident.

dont worry about it. i used to be on other car forums and got slammed when i had my accident. I had mine at the time when I was driving to the hospital at 4 in the morning, other things on my mind and smacked into a fiesta - I dented all down the side of it and got told I was a useless driver etc etc.

Just forget about it, the twingo and other car are fine. no point in listening to internet rubbish

sorry to hear, hopefully not to expensive

 

[scott133]

I probably was a bit close but was really busy and we were going slow so should't be to expensive to fix

Bugger. **** happens dude. No matter the fault at least no one got hurt.

So good that in my work cars I forget the need to brake sooner lol.
Sorry to hear about the accident.

I've done it. Woman on a roundabout just stopped over the line. I was looking right thinking she had gone and bumped into her. Easily done and I'll throw my hands up and say I was in the wrong. Doesn't make me a bad driver, I've learnt from it.

Just be thankful it wasn't at High speed

Bad times hope you get it sorted soon without the need for insurance claims

I did the same thing once. Two miles into a 450 mile journey The car infront was armed with a tow bar and just needed a bumper respray from my broken headlight glass. But i needed to tie down the bonnet which was bent and wouldnt stay latched.


Scott. Hopefully the damage is minimal for yourself.

Yup I chose a 4x4 complete with tow bar and spare wheel. Didn't end well for me
