Side swiped on the freeway again! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

riozlander · 02-10-2018, 02:01 AM

Yup again 1st time was a bike splitting lanes in dead stop traffic.

Those time it was a black BMW dude ran the red light cutting me off brake checked me I stalled the car slamming on my brakes horn Blaring. Then when getting on the on ramp was sitting on the side of the road though nothing of it passed him 2 min later he fly's up behind me and goes to do a ricer flyby and side swiped the back right corner of my car. I did chase after him but after 118mph and the limiter for speed going off I backed off not worth it.

My adrenaline is still pumping this happened 30 min ago at the time of posting

I have a poverty spec manual v6 2012 mine limited at 116 but but you can push it to 118mph. Was not worth it to me. And I'm out 800$ right now for health reasons. I've dropped 3 pant sizes in the last 2 months.

I'll have to see what else might be damaged in the morning I suspect behind the gills but it looks to be cosmetic mostly superficial can't feel any dents.

To me it's not worth it at those speeds to me to try to get a plate all I could get is er9 for the plate

That sucks; I would still call the highway patrol and make a report. With a description of the vehicles & a partial plate, they may be able to track it down. Good luck.

Invest in a dash cam. Will pay for itself with things like this.

yeah ill just call the local pd and make a report in the morning they had Utah plates so i don't expect much help there. and the 500$ deductible on the insurance don't help. i only got 180$ in the bank given recent bills all out of pocket as well.

the only positive thing i can think of is about a month ago i got accepted in to a sponsorship program that helps get you discounts on aftermarket parts and even full sponsorship in some cases soo meh.

some folks would think i don't care about my car or that i should be more upset. but i am alive the car still drives fine and it looks to be superficial damage.

this months just been hit after hit after hit for me

given im this cars third owner and it already had some cosmetic problems and poorly touched up areas for some scratches, im kinda at a thats life sometimes way of looking at it

wow,that sucks.i thought I-4 was bad.

Spurshot · 02-10-2018, 06:58 AM

That really sucks. Any reason you can think of why this guy would be playing grab ass like that? If you were driving normally and this was not instigated by any fast or erratic driving, it may have been an intoxicated driver or a stolen car. I’m guessing intoxicated driver.

frankwjr · 02-10-2018, 08:13 AM

f cali...and OP you got pay to play....be careful.

Speed limits out where I work are 50-60mph my best guess is the dude cut me off thinking it is a 40-45 mph road not realizing the actual speed of traffic when he ignored the red light and turned on the road.

He was sitting on the side of the on ramp. Wish I could've asked the dude why. He could of been drunk or high. Cali is weed legal.

Maybe he got upset about me honking my horn and thought f-that guy I'm going to fly by him. I don't think the side swiped was intentional. There was a pause before he floored it if he had stopped I would of called chp out as a possible road rage.

These are the best shots I could get on my Camaro. I keep my car pretty much mirror shine witch sucks for getting dents on camera.

The last 2 are from the motorcycle earlier last year 3 months in to ownership again it's superficial hardly noticeable (edit) the white stuff is a spray on wax. I was testing what would and would not buff out

Rubbing is racing lol.

In all seriousness I'm glad Chevy built such a tough car. I truly appreciate the quality they have

In other news I guess I'm in the market for new trim rings if any one has a website for them?
