You know, we joke about the pics on here but the sad reality is that some people really are that dumb. They probably had no clue what was going on and thought they were suppose to do that.

Sonofabeetch, that's just dumb. How fast would you have to be going to put it over the curb like that? You'd think you would hear the crunch and maybe step off the throttle, maybe.

I think that silver 8 driver needs to learn a bit better clutch control.

my ex girl took the 8 and went onto a curb dented the rocker panel b4... funny thing is that when she also took my Subie and also dent the same side rocker panel!!! Obviously she broke the C-West side skirt that I had on, and her "smart" co-worker decided to RIP the whole side skirt off at the parking lot....

When she got home I almost lost it... when I went back to price it out, I could only get a pair and it was costing $1000 for the pair of the sideskirt!!!

I'm sure there are some good/ decent female drivers out there, but some of them are just soooo careless!!

women drivers........I mean, is anyone really that amazed that a woman was able to get her rx8 that far over the curb? Probably applying her makeup or on the cell phone.

Before I get flamed, don't get me wrong.....there are plenty of good women drivers out there. But there are an equal number of bad women drivers.

I did that when I first got the car... 3 weeks to be exact. I cried.

I was just so used to having an SUV. It wasn't carelessness. The dent is still there too...

1. yes, that takes talent to get a low riding car that far up a curb.
2. now why would she be putting make up on as she's starting the car? give the girl a little more credit.
3. of all the accidents i've ever seen, 3/4 were caused by men trying to prove how well endowed they are by how shitty their driving is.
4. your gender does not determine your driving skills. for every good girl/guy driver out there, there is a bad one.

was expecting this response...........
How many accidents have you actually seen? According to your post, it has to be a lot.
Not saying men are better drivers, but I guarantee a man would have good enough sense to not keep going once the car hit the curb.
My job is dealing with accidents, and I get as many claims dealing with men than with women. The cause of the accidents, though, are different. Men tend to have more "slid off the road and hit a tree" accidents, while women have more "not paying attention and hit the vehicle behind me" accidents.

well, as i don't keep count, i do have a 45 minute drive on the 405 freeway (one of the bussiest freeways in southern california) monday-friday, so you can only imagine the accidents that go down for all sorts of reasons.

and i wasn't trying to attack you, just standing up for my gender

repost ! omfg.

but I still wonder who is that moron driver, for the 8 of course.

sorry but I think 98% of the female drivers simply drive like a retard, 1.5% are ok, and the 0.5% are professional.

Men, probably 80% morons, 18% are ok, and 2% is pro. I happen to be in the OK area

this is a pointless thread.

this is the mother of all reposts.

there are many females that are better drivers than the men in Connecticut.

save the severs from extra work and stop posting here.

I actually let the clutch out the other day while the car was on, came to within nanometers of hitting the garage door.

I don't think the starter or the engine as it pulls itself to a stall actually have the power to pull up over a curb like that and go that far, it takes more "effort" than that.
