My girlfriends friend
Bought a 2014 dodge half ton hemi because she was sick of constant repairs in pos vehicles.

In less than a year she has replaced
(Incident one - someone hit her in mcdonalds iirc)
Box

(Incident two - drove off the road cuz deer )
Door
Mirror
Bumper
Hood
Rocker panel

Several flat tires

And 3 speeding tickets
.....

Never mine the (iirc) 2-3 recalls she had done.

What do with these people?

Maybe she should learn how to drive first though.

Depends how much you want to judge her. I get speeding tickets all of the time. Does that make me a bad driver? Not really. I'm just super impatient and like to go 5-10 over.

If a deer jumped out in front of me, I'd swerve out of reaction (I know you're not supposed to, but I cant help it, its reflex.)

And if someone backed into you at McDonalds, its not really your fault. I was backed into 4 months ago, no damage though.

The multiple flat tires idk about, most I've gotten with a car with this CRV. Got 2 back to back flats when I first put the Grids on. Both with nails.

All the time?.... Haha I can't remember the last time I got a ticket lol it's a good thing to 3 cars a bike and my house is just A little below 2k a year all full coverage execept my bike.

Everyday is time attack day dog I just so happen to take the same road to and from work all the time so I know where the hot spots are. As for cruising I generally do it just a little after mid-night I find cops are more forgiving then.

You get tickets for 5-10 over? Dang.


And what you said OP describes like half the drivers in this god damn town. Speed racing light to light so they can get to the ski area and sit in the lodge all day with a hot cocoa.

I get probably 1 ticket per year on average. Sometimes more.

I can see that as cops are ALWAYS in school zones while lights are flashing. I used to have to drive through the school zone in my town to get to high school where a cop was paid to sit every day. Dead on 25mph and gave him a sarcastic smile every damn day

I did get pulled over doing 50 in a 45 on the 4th of july this year. Huge bullshit but just checking if I was drunk I suppose.

I just got fucked on it. I was working on my weekend job doing transportation. I had clients in the car. I was in an area I wasnt familiar with and there was NO FLASHING LIGHTS. The town only had 1 sign on each side that says 15mph school zone between 7:10am-8:10am and 2:10pm-3:10pm. there wasnt kids preset or anything. it didnt even look like a school. oh well though, lost that job because of it but its just my weekend part time job so it didnt really bother me. I still have my regular full time job during the week. Since then I picked up a weekend job at a head shop which is fun as hell so it all worked out, except that $500 ticket.
