On my nightly trek home a little after 7 I had gotten on Central at Forrest as usual, and made it over to the fast lane just as they were shutting off the exits under 635 for . The traffic backed up pretty quick so I slowed to match, but I guess my mind was elsewhere because on the second or third "stop and go" I was coming up on this cars ass end a bit faster than expect. I slammed on the breaks immediatly, but the wheels locked up and I slid right into the car. More concerned with her's than mine I reached into the glove box to get my insurance, and by the time I exited my car she had looked at her bumper and was practically smiling. Thank god for 5mph bumpers! Not a stratch on either car so I apologized a few more times, we shook hands, and got back into our cars. This morning I found a patch of her car wax on my front end, but that's it. No more sleeping on the way home for me, that's for sure.

Don't feel bad dude. I did the same thing
Did you get her number at least?

 

[GE]

Wait 'til she files on your insurance for her bodily injury!

At least there was no property damage and no one was hurt! (yet).

5 mpg bumpers

i'm glad everyone's ok, but you should change your bumper if it is only getting 5 miles per gallon.

Damn dude you got lucky. Normally you would have hit someone that needed some cash and their neck would be hurting them.

Damn dude, glad you lucked out and didn't mess something up!!

That's the thing, she didn't even want my info, she was totally cool about it. I wonder if it was a company car or something.

Aaron, What kind of car was she in that withstood the tap?

It was a newer 4-door Dodge or Chrysler, I don't remember the model though. There has to atleast be marks from my license plate frame, cuz her bumper is solid plastic across with a recessed plate.
She didn't seem to look that hard or even care that much, maybe it was her mother-in-law's car.

with the ABS you really shouldn't have slid into her. my ABS has saved my ass more than a few times. glad to hear it didn't cause any damage.

I dont think I would go around bragging that women dont want your number! In fact, this is even worse. She went so far as to forgo money not to take your information!

I did the same thing to a lady in LA. I was driving from Dallas to San Francisco and we were in stop and go traffic and BAM I rearended the car in front of me. The lady was cool about it, too. I'd hate to have to take care of something like that from here. I had been on the road for 24 hours straight at that point, and I shouldn't have been driving.

 

[AbecX]

[sassystang]

She was mid 30's, black, and quite heavy. Sweet woman, but no thanks.
