I Hate Stupid People

Tonight I was going to a birthday party and had just pulled up behind another car owned by a stoner guy I know. We were parked along the side of the road and out of nowhere he decided to pull out and he was just gonna go backwards instead of pulling straight forward. New bumper is all thats needed but my dad is about to beat my a$$ and his 1,100 mile car has some nice scratches and scufff marks from a dude who probably didn't know what was going on. His dad's gonna write us a check after I get a quote but I get to go to get my truck fixed and the 8 fixed all tomorrow. Yay.

So, was this a slow roll back-up? How fast, how far away was he? Thanks.

You were lucky. "Stoner guys" kill people every day.

he was about 5 feet in front of me and just stuck it into reverse and rolled right into me, he could have gone straight forward but he decided going backwards was much more logical.

I'm with sin... Somehow that doesn't sound the way it should... anyhoo, it's not the stoners that kill people it's the drunks. And I wouldn't park my dad's car anywhere near the party . Instead next time park a ways over yonder and hike it in. Don't parents teach their kids anything these days.

Experience is the best teacher. A good beating is one form of experience, but it looks like you have learned without one.

man, that sucks! no offense but my child would NEVER take my car to a party! i plan on buying my daughter a corolla or something when she starts driving! i dont even let my husband drive my 8 anymore since he scuffed up one of my wheels. i shouldve known better tho bc he always "bottomed out" when he drove my spyder.

good luck, i hope she ends up just like new. i agree w/sin... great reason to upgrade to mazdaspeed!

Yeah stoners don't kill people, they just back up into your car due to bad judgment - or total lack of judgment. People are are "chemically enhanced" wether it be stoner, alky, or crackhead should not be driving.

I know he wasn't gonna kill anyone, he just made a stupid decision that resulted in him gonna be a little less rich.
