the tire moves front to rear independently of the car... my bet is, broken spindle near the strut...

No flaming, I really feel you should be thankful to be alive, rather than blaming everyone else in the world for your mistake.

Btw, you can just ignore me, there is no rule telling me you have to give me warning.

The dakota "almost hit him" - Even if it was on a 100% collision course with him while passing, moving 5 feet to the left would have been fine. He overreacted, and that's why his car is totaled, not the dakota.

Yes, I'd imagine merging on the 101 or the 405 a single time more cars come close to hitting me than a year's worth of driving in, say, rural Arkansas.



I like how when someone posts accident pictures and admits to going 5 to 10 mph over the speed limit, everyone on the forum comes in and gives him the third degree, but when I say someone should be thankful to be alive instead of blaming others for an accident they could have avoided, I'm "mean"

you try an evasive maneuver two days after you go from street tires to winter tires when there is cold weather, moisture, and black ice...

my control of the vehicle was what kept only my vehicle being damaged, and kept both passengers in my car NOT injured...

If that comment were meant to be positive it should have been more like "you should just be thankful your ability to control your vehicle didn't kill someone."
