If the broadsider has their belts on and have airbags, and the broadsided gets nailed on the side of the vehicle they are in, odds favor the broadsider to walk.
A hell of a lot more metal and crunch zones to absorb the energy from the collision in the front of the vehicle than on the side of the vehicle.

wannabeH3, you disappoint me. What kind of pathetic jerk are you to actually consider 'who would have won'? I'm sorry you think it was funny, but I don't.

Hi, well I have been lurking for a while and I hate to make this my first post, but I have to respond.

Wannabe please be careful. It is not a joke to t-bone someone at 40 MPH in a nearly 5,000 lb vehicle. What if that was your girlfriend or mother that was going the other way, is it still funny? And if by "won" you mean feeling the guilt for killing someones parent for the rest of your life, and being in court for the next 5 years settling lawsuits, then yes you would have "won."

It's not a race or competition on the streets, we are all trying to get somewhere safely. We all make mistakes when we drive, but to make light of the fact that you nearly killed someone is a bit disturbing. Stay safe out there!

wannabe, I didn't imply that you had any intention of hitting the person, it was clearly a mistake, but it's the fact that you turned it into a joke that caused me to call you a jerk.

Again.... I'm sorry you both think it is funny, but I still don't.

I don't think it's funny. I was simply trying to make a light of the situation. Guess I failed. Sorry. I love you Diz!

Hihummer, thank you for teaching me a new word today I just didn't feel that this was something to be laughed at, whether it was meant to be sarcastic or not.

The way this was written did not imply sarcasm. It was more of a joke like my big bad Hummer almost owned a crappy little Jeep. The message of this post should have been more about the dangers of driving while being tired than making fun of a very bad situation. I doubt anyone here would have thought I was being funny or sarcastic if I started a thread that said I blew threw a school zone in my Jeep Rubicon at 40 MPH and almost hit a 5 year old crossing the street, who do you think would have won? See my point?

Since Hihummer educated me a little today I will return the favor. Go to http://www.car-accidents.com and look at the pictures, and read their stories. Maybe this will take the humor out of the situation.

I am the new guy, and I don't want to give anyone grief. I just want all of you to be careful out there, so we all make it to tomorrow, so we can post more stories to argue about

HIHUMMER 11-08-2005 02:35 PM

Shoo, troll, don't bother me.
