two days ago i was going about 85 on a two lane road. and i was going around a turn and i was going to take the inside and ezz out on the outside. but a truck was coming so i kind of jerked the wheel and my back right tire caught the grass and i started fishtailing. and i went into the grass and lost control and hit this big colvert and went about ten feet in the air and landed on the other side of the colvert. and all the air bags deployed and i totaled my car luckly no one was with me

a foot over and i would have hit the whole colvert and i wouldnt be here today....

when i get pictures ill put them up

Way to go, going 85 on a two lane. Maniac.

I hate to say it and sound like a jerk, but it serves you right. What in the hell were you thinking? And how in the hell did you get in a car and drive 85 miles an hour at age 15?

People like you...I swear...

85mph or 85km/h?

85mph or 85km/h?
Yes you didn't give a specific explanation here..The speed unit man..
And you drove a car at your 15 and you wrecked it?OMG...[-X

my guess would be MPH but i might be wrong please clear this up

damnnnn that totally sucks. glad no one was hurt but speeding does kill. hate to admit and hear it. speeding is tempting, trust me I KNOW but unfortunately you cant on streets. i dont mean to get down on you either.

no offence but that was foolish, if the police caught ya you'd be in deep ****, that happened to someone i used to go to school with he was 16 (minimum driving age in UK is 17) when he crashed and he was caught, he has to wait till he's 18 till before he can get a provisional license.

85mph or 85km/h?
i think mph because in USA they use mph not km/h....we use km/h in canada.

85mph, on a two lane road, acting like you were on a racetrack, at 15 years of age?

Serves you right.

woah! 85 is too fast on a two lane and taking on the other side of the road while on a corner. all i can say is i think you're lucky nothing big happened to you. hope you learned your lesson. be careful.

Give him a break, he made a mistake. You all have, or you all will. This is not what you'd want to hear after a tramatic situation, especially when you've admitted your faults.

Glad to hear that no one was hurt. Was the law involved? Is this going to compromise getting your license?

.... well at least you're alive.

hey VTEC dreams, you sound like a homo. thats nothingg 85 on a 2 lanes plzzzzzzzzzzz. but sorry to hear about your car and freak accidents do happen.

wow you sound like my hero, i wish i was as cool as you, oh by the way, when you kill yourself trying to proove yourself let me know i will laugh and say told you so, did you not read the first post? he was going round a bend at 85, thats just not smart,

hey VTEC dreams, you sound like a homo. thats nothingg 85 on a 2 lanes plzzzzzzzzzzz. but sorry to hear about your car and freak accidents do happen.

And what makes you say that Schumacher?

yes i was going 85 mph
and no i didnt think it was a fu*king race track
i no i shouldnt have been going that fast
and i didnt get in trouble cause my dad was a cop in that town and his friend forover 20 years said dont worry about it and didnt get in trouble


i dont understand why so many people on here have to be dicks if i heard someone on here got in a wreck i would feel bad about them and there car who cares how fast your going as long as your ok and you learned you lesson i sure did and i literally thanked god for me not getting hurt and that my gf wasnt in the passenger seat cause she would be dead right now

Sorry, but you sound like a complete prik here, Just because your dad was a cop and knew the guy so you didnt get in trouble is not an excuse.

Its not always about YOU, what about other people on the road? what if you hit them? what if you killed them? there is always a what if? you were the stupid one for doing 85mph, you wont get a sorry from me.

85mph is alright on a two lane if your in a good handling car, i mean theres an empty single lane road near my house that we use as a shortcut to get out of town, and i vividly remember my dad getting 125mph down it at 5AM on our way out of town to go to cornwall, it was lush.

Its not really us being dicks, its because your 15 and we dont exactly like hearing about you youngins getting into near fatal accidents. way to young man, way to young.

he was 15?!
?
!
?

?

who in their right mind let you behind the wheel?
i suppose if you've got the skills you can do those speeds, but judging by the title of this thread, obviously not.

I agree, 15 is too young to be driving a car at that speed given the lack of experience. I'm sorry for what happened and am really glad that you or anyone else is not hurt but at your age and driving experience you should not have been trying something like that. I'm not picking on you, just giving my opinion, don't take it personal.

I got my permit when I was 15, I drove stick shift and I might have gone that fast already. But there's one thing for sure, I wasn't as stupid. I know when and where to drive that fast.

hey VTEC dreams, you sound like a homo. thats nothingg 85 on a 2 lanes plzzzzzzzzzzz. but sorry to hear about your car and freak accidents do happen.

Freak accident? Have you ever even driven a car? I'm glad to hear your little balls are brassier than mine.

And Skyline, 85 on a two lane on a public road is NEVER okay, I don't care if you're Ayrton Senna. I've only done twisties at 85 on a track, and that's where it should stay. If you think you're gonna go out and get yourself a badass "good handling" RWD car and then do 85 on a two lane, then you'll probably end up in the same boat as sir Liarsenic.

lol↑↑↑i wouldve killed myself if my gf was in a car in a situation like that...o well...i still got 3 more years till i can drive...

Bad choice dude...sorry bout the wreck. Next time, don't do speeding. If u wanna go at a speed like that, take it to a nearby race track.

Nice work. Good thing you have wrecked your car with no purpose...

yeah i was really going about 110 but then i slowed down to take the turn

yeah i no it was stupid as hell and if i could i would go back to change it but it happend and its over nothing i can do about it so oh well

i needed to go fast anyways i had alot of stress going on and everyone knows going fast makes you forget about everything so thats why i did it

but thanks for all your helpfull remarks :)

next time you want to release stress going "fast" go yo a Go-Kart track and do a couple of races... or punch a wall at least.

whoa hold on a min when did this turn on me?

all i meant was doing 85 on a straight is ridiculous doing it on a bend is suicidal i dont agree with that type of speeding on any road,

Yeah, it not a very smart idea to take a 2 lane corner at 85mph, but at least you're ok. Just make sure that you have learnt from your mistake and won't do it again, then you will be fine. Also, if your 15, then you shouldn't be driving at all!

Sheeesh that's one bad wreck dude.... well, the good thing for you was that no-body was hurt... Otherwise you wouldn't be here would ya.. lol... Anyway, I'm waiting on the pics, I really wanna see the wreck of yours... But anyway, that was crazy, doing 85pmh, on a 2 lane road, sheesh, what were ya thinking? lol :p j/k

EDIT: WTF? you're 15?! Hooooooly Moly! the limit like here in AUS is like 17 or 16!

85mph, pheww. Ive been driving for 2 years and have only been up to 80mph and that was kinda fast (on a motorway).

This thread is pointless without pictures. When are we going to see them?

I think people are getting a little confused here

2 Lane Road = 2 lanes, 1 lane on each side
4 Lane Road = 2 lanes on each side

at least thats how i call it.

yes i was going 85 mph
and no i didnt think it was a fu*king race track
i no i shouldnt have been going that fast

I can beleive that, policemen take care of their own. A smart one would have you prosecuted to the full extent and you would probably never do it again.

seriously though, 15, what did you expect everyone here to say, "oh well, better luck next time, hope you get to replace your BMW .."

85mph is alright on a two lane if your in a good handling car, i mean theres an empty single lane road near my house that we use as a shortcut to get out of town, and i vividly remember my dad getting 125mph down it at 5AM on our way out of town to go to cornwall, it was lush.

No, its not alright, roads are only built to handle certain amounts of speeds, there are public roads that can handle high speeds, but 85 on a curvy 2 lane road is just stupid.

This thread is pointless without pictures. When are we going to see them?

probably ... never

First it was i was going 85 mph, then he is slowing down to 85 mph to take a curve in a unnamed car, and to top it off he is 15 ..

Im with him ^^

A real car enthusiast would have a better idea of what speed they were actually going when they screwed up. Unless they were holding a phone to their head. Unless they were a chick.

An honest estimate of degrees/roll required to remove phone from ear might enable a statistical go/no go on the latter Q.

ROFL!!! 15!!?? Driving alone??? Without adult supervision??? @85mph!!!!??? 2 lane road??? That's just abusing your permit.

Sorry to say this, but i don't think your ready (deserve) to drive<<my opinion

i call bs without pics.

you would call BS if the world fell on your head, just shutup.


roads are only supposed to handle certain speeds, but for a certain car you can oush that, 85mph on a 2 lane road in a ford fiesta is nuts, in an F1 car its slow.
look at moncao GP for example.

STUPID !!!!!

I have only gone 85mph on the motorway and even then I was abit rary (spelling) !

Serves yourself right mate. What would have happened if a little kid would have walked into the road ??? You would have ran over the child consequently causing murder !

I called BS first!

he has yet to tell us what car he was driving in ..

i just moved so i dont have a comp with the pics on it
the mods and close it and ill make a new one when i get them

and yes i no it was stupid as f*ck but i wasnt thinking
and everyone where i used to live drives without a license

and the car was a bmw 325i if anyone wants to no
but i got a new car its a little gay ass jetta but its standered to i get to learn that

Slip differentials would have saved your car depending if it had them in it. Another, you probably jerked the wheel and held it there. For future refrence, jerk the wheel to the right to avoid the truck then sharply to the left to give swing on the back tires, and back again to the right while on the breaks, thus engaging in a "drift". at this point down shift or (in automatic) apply breaking hard ant E-Break like theres no tommrow. At 85 a flip is possible, considering a tire looses its grip at xMph(two times the square root of tire pressure(lbs/in)), so you really were going too fast given that hapened. Also the road could have been a factor.

Please note just cause the car can go fast doesn't mean you can. 85 is kinda fast for a convetional car.

Anyway, if your not in a Slip Diff. car, don't go above 80mph and take a turn please, or install them.

A bmw 325i, were do you get that, did you rob it? Are you a drug dealer?

Channanox, I doubt at 85 that slippydiff would have saved him. It definitely helps, but if anything ESP would have been better, cutting out the engine power.
The 325i does come with a slip-diff I thought, or at least the new one's do. It's just stupid driving.

Honestly, I think (almost) every new driver should get in an accident, just so that they know they're not invincible. Not so they get really hurt, but just a little bit, to shake them up.

you completely moved within the past 5 days

thats pretty impressive

porscheboy thats exactly right cause now im not ever going that fast unless its a straight away

and it was a 1994 so nothin special.. well it was to me but not to expensive

im on a friends computer so when i get mine with the pics on it ill put them up

yeah man.... we dont need to lose a member here. i understand every new driver wants to go fast, but around corners? please dont. and an lsd wouldnt help much at all. once he hit dirt its over. sorry to hear about your wreak, im glad your still here though.

Lesson learned, no one hurt, it's good. However, I'm kind of surprised you had the guts to try that in the first place.

15!!???

Please get some serious track training from someone NOW.

Not only was the speed high with little experience, but from your discription you should not have fish tailed (over reacting on the steering?), and should have allowed for the "unlikely".

Also it is a case of Horses for Courses, the car you had does not have the set up for that sort of driving.

I bet the adrenline pump put you out for a while :) You are on a great forum- use it to learn and ask; plenty of experience here.

Please stay alive, the world needs you :)

Yes he should get some training.
Yes. This is sure. We are on a very good forum with much experience. And i'm proud of it.

I bet the adrenaline pump put you out for a while :)I remember the first time I rolled a car (yes, I've done it a couple times...). It was in my dad's 912 (the one I ended up with that I sold a year or so ago). I was running through Ortega Highway with some buddies and at the end of the highway where you turn onto Grand we usually take it at about 40 or 45. Well, this happened to be the first time I'd ever pushed a rear engine car hard and although I took it somewhat easy through Ortega I figured I'd slide out onto Grand like I knew what I was doing! lol... I hit the turn from the wrong side of the road at about 50 or 55... the ass spun out from under me, I ended up facing the wrong way and the last thing I thought was 'my dad's gonna kill me if I screw up the alignment' lol... Next thing I knew I hit the dirt, the car went over... I don't know how many times... and there I was, strapped in upside down. There was no way I was gonna be able to unstrap my harness and climb out so I had to wait there until my buddies rolled the car back over.

Anyway, the point is that all these years later the one thing I remember the most is that massive rush of adrenaline! I was on a high like no other all the way home. That was an experience I'll never forget.
