Default another EF bites the dust

yep my EF was damaged probably beyond repair this time round it happend round 12am last nite along Springy Road near Hailbury school this dam van came out of no were smashed in my right hand quater which point it the air bag blew, the impact of it ripped my right hand wheel clear off the ball joints the battery was pushed in, front quater smashed right in, bonnet bent, front bar ripped but still intact just!, headlite and indercator demolished well it was a 80km impact, worst part of it all the Van reverst out on me and after the smash it did a RUNNA! and he may have been drinking and a stroke of luck the cops were like 5 seconds behind a rent a cop heard it all told the cops the dudes plate number so they can go get him and give him the PHONEBOOK!

atleast my car did its job and protected me and my passager he gave his life for me, well could have been worse but we walked out of it coughing up our lungs due the airbag blowing still coughing thought, i dont think he can be repaired it will cost too much

anyways i mite bring him home to salvage parts off and stuff so yeh

thought i will let u guys know about it all

You would want to take a crow bar to the face of a driver who drives off after causing an accident, what idiots, prob not insured, on the dole and cant afford the damage bill.

In saying that they should not been on the road!!!!!!!!!

Anyway good to hear you and your passenger are all good, got any pics of the car?

Good to hear you're ok, what an ********.

I really hope there are additional consequences for leaving the scene of an accident.
