Blame it on rap music.

Will do

glad you survived!

glad you're ok... sucks about your car..

You're one lucky dude!!



It's great news that you weren't hurt too badly!!



But I've heard that airbags were like hitting a brick wall with your chest.

Good thing you came out OK.

When I was in an accident and the airbag deployed I don't really remember how it felt. Though I got a slight burn from the propellant.

Don't know, Abe. I was never in an accident that involved airbags. But a guy I used to work for smacked up his wife's minivan, which had them. He told me it felt like hitting a brick wall.

I was probably too in shock to notice.

You should adjust the time on your camera, because according to it, these pics were taken 6 months ago.
Or, you are using what I call "Euro time," where the date is first, then the month!

Either way, I blame rap too.

Overtaking a slow car on a straight road, and the idiot decided to turn right as i was doing it without looking in his mirrors etc, hit him directly sideways on! He was in a ford ranger too!

Jackass!

The time on the camera is correct, its just the stupid way you yanks read a calender thats wrong!
And to be fair im in Europe, so why would i have any other time other than "euro" time on my clock?
Your forgetting that most americans are from Europe originally anyway!

Well to be honest i cant remember where it actually hit, but all i had in the morning from hitting the airbag with my face (which is what its designed for) was a slightly tender nose, but with no bruising etc!

Was it done in an Eminem Stylee with your duck-taped gf in the boot?
