Thumbs down If I did'nt have bad luck I'd have no luck

If you guys and gals have been following my troubled vehicle stories lately,You know how it's been going.I am on my way to school today in my new 91 Mustang Convertible and I stop at a red light.The light goes green and I take off.After I go through the intersection a car about 3 cars ahead decides to stab the brakes and try to turn left into a gas station only that side of the road was still waiting for the traffic light.I stab the brakes for a panic stop and get her slowed down almost stopped.I look in my rear view to see a 89 Iroc coming hard,Then I hear him lock em up.Uh Oh!! this is gonna hurt.BAMMM!!!!! I got hit.Aparently he got rear ended by a honda.The honda cut out and bolted Probably had no Insurance.It was a guy I go to school with and to both our surprise neither car was hurt (other than my rearview mirror falling off BUILT FORD TOUGH RIGHT!!) No cops involved but just a little irony getting hit by a Camaro in a Mustang.Must be the Camaro gods are pissed at me......

Sorry to hear man!! At least you and the car are alright

Odd as it is, I was playing with an older 5.0 Stang 2 days ago on Eureka rd. Once he got behind me we were in typical 45 MPH traffic. A Status ahead of me got on the brakes HARD and so did I. Knowing that Stang owner was an idiot, I was watching him in the mirror and yep, He locks them up LATE and is headed right toward my camaro. I slammed first and pulled up and that actually saved my car's ***. He would have hit me around 10 MPH probably....

Gotta be careful out there guys and realize who's doing what around you.

Even on Gratiot last night I was constantly watching my mirror and tapping my brake lights more than normal while sitting at a light.
