Heh! There's only one way to get experience - you have to experience it.

Are you sure it's not totaled? Isn't $6,200 about 1/2 of what the car costs?

Bummer, I hope your baby gets fixed like new ASAP.
I'm 41 and sometimes I drive like a ricerboy too. But after seeing this, I'm going to think REAL hard about it. I'm sure it was a bit embarrassing on top of everything else. Glad you are still in one piece. Please keep us posted on the patient and on your ins./license outcome. ![]()

Props, because it takes some guts to 'fess up to doing something stupid on an internet forum because you could have just kept quiet and probably no one would have noticed.

Count your blessings that you didn't get yourself or anyone else killed, and that your Yaris isn't totaled. Be careful next time

Yeah - we all have our Inner Ricer. My favorite piece of road is the swoopy "S-and-a-half" ramp here. One lane, not a race place, jjust for fun with no-one else around.

I call it sports driving because that seems to be how tire makers differentiate their product line, say, between Yokohama Decibels and AD08s. But yeah I go to a track every now and then.

We've all been "there". Be glad you're in one piece and that you're not in the Brig awaiting trial.

You find the occasional deal everyone once in awhile. I just wish I could get to them before they get snagged by someone else.

the cop was not at fault. not one bit. cops do this all the time to warn people to slow down. that he lost control due to some flashing lights was entirely driver error.
