Default GF Wrecked the Civic Twice in 3 Weeks.

Yup she did. First time it wasn't so bad, she slid in some slush and bumper hit the guardrail as she was getting off the interstate:

It was only about a $650/Total fix. With it being an EX SE, I thought that the bumper wouldve been more expensive than what it actually was.


The other wreck on the other hand, is a different story. Story she told me was that she was following a Semi on the interstate and he slammed on his brakes for no apparent reason and she slammed hers on, brakes locked up and she swerved to the right and clipped the Semi's rear bumper.

This one is about a $4,100 fix. it goes in this Monday.

The important thing is that she is ok, the car can be replaced.

I bet there was a reason for the trucker slaming on his breaks.... to teach her a lesson.... im guessing she was drafting behind him... ive seen a few truckers do that here

My thoughts exactly. Either that or she was on the phone.

X2... and then she had the ***** to tell me that she wants a mustang, to which my reply was: "You can't even handle a Civic."

She drives almost an hour to work... so the 15mpg would suck. However I do know where you're coming from.

Indeed....for some reason females(not all..but ALOT) don't really think about staying out of a "Potential Situation" on the road when they drive, they can react when a situation "happens" but by that time it might be too late no matter what she does.

And I really hate people(male or female) that text/read text while driving...that's the equivalent of trying to read a newspaper ad.
