OMG complete brake failure!

Post Reply New Topic

So I was driving down a 25mph road when my brakes completely failed!! ! I had to drive onto sidewalk to avoid hitting another car at red light then I turned into a parking lot where I turned into a parking space and my car hit the edge of a building which stopped it. Cop gave me citation for brake issue. I have a valid driver's license and current registration/insurance thankfully!

OMG imagine if I was on the freeway when this happened or I got in an accident or hit another car! I'm junking this old car once my uncle mails my title to the rehab hospital, I'll just get a much safer car later!

Sorry about what happened.

Something tells me your uncle got you this car.

I had good-meaning friends give me crappy cars.

Buy a car at a police auction.

Yes my uncle got me this car and worked on the brakes several times. I'm going to use money from junking it to help fund apartment move. Where we are moving to has cheap public transportation and we can easily live there without a car for awhile.

Not glad it happened, but glad you were in a slower situation when it did!

Car got junked today only got 150 for it and since my uncle drove all the way and helped me out I gave him part the money, only fair.

My husband's getting is money December or before. Huge backpay, my husband said "Merry Christmas for me!"

Apartment stuff is going okay just finalizing paperwork mainly.
