Perth micra bites the dust

Some hoon in a hilux smashed into another 4wd parked in the break down lane while they where racing some other car and set off a chain reaction that wrote off a poor micra. Hope it was not one of our members involved.

The hilux that caused it all. Fools.

What is it about Hilux's that attract the dickheads? I gave up off-roading on weekends due to the morons that got out in the bush in their beat up 'luxs.

Mychael

lol hilux's are POS.

I've never liked 4wd's

Dunno but im sure his insurance company wont be paying him out after he is convicted and it looks like a new TRD Hilux too.

any links to the news story? massive fail by the looks of things.

let hope insurance comes thru for you and you can spend some coin on a nice super S :P

That was much much worse than my micra, hope the driver was ok..
But where was it in Perth?? north or south?

xsoarerx not my car thank god. dunno who it was. Happened NOR on the freeway.

Here's the news~

that story claims there was two different incidents which is incorrect. The 2nd pile up was caused when the cars tried to avoid the first crash. One huge mess all down to one huge moron. Hope he has deep pockets as his foolishness took out 8 cars.

just shows how crumple zone designs are so important especially in micras or any small car for that matter

It's highlighted the danger of not only DH's in their 4WD's driving like they're indestructable but also the the hazard posed by the many abandoned vehicles on the freeway emergency lanes. In any other country they'd get towed away within the hour. In Perth they stay there for weeks! Suprising more people don't get injured/killed hitting them!

And don't get me started about the morons pulling over to talk on their mobiles. Illegal and dangerous especially when making a half-arsed effort of getting back into the traffic!

Damn... sorry to see another micra off the road..
If it is a member from here, im sure they can wreck it for parts to get some coin back.

Lucky to be alive based on how badly Micras end up in the smallest of accidents. Imagine a massive one like this.
