I thought threads on ricers getting trashed followed the same rules around here as babe threads. You have to supply pictures, otherwise we don't get the full effect. C'mon, you have to give us some graphics of decals strewn all over the road, non-functional spoiler kits in pieces or purple fog lights lying battered and broken in the gutter. Without that we all just feel so unfulfilled.

Accidents = not cool. I have been to too many, seen to many, helped too many people. Accident = potential for lost life. A day I do not end up at an accident is a good day. thank goodness they are far and few between for me, but not for those like perimedic911, who ends up at 3-4 a day.

Since you posted that everyone is fine, then cool. time to joke about it. I hate ricers too, so I understand. ;) That being said, WTF is wrong with you? You go to the nearest store and buy a disposable camera and snap away! Then you get to come here, not before.

I am still waiting for my digital camera. Once I get it I will be posting some rice pics for all to see. ;)

Is there such a thing as a 4 door Civic Type R?

I have been in accidents too. 2 were caused by drunk drivers. I nearly was arrested for attacking the one drunk driver. He hit my car 2 days after I got it out of the bodyshop. He tried to flee the scene and I reached into the drivers side to grab the keys as he started driving. I got the keys and he, umm, fell several times hurting his face. He had no insurrance, no license, no plates and not his car. That is what saved me.

The last one was caused by a senior not knowing the difference between a 4 way stop and a 2 way stop.

You obviously posted this to get a rise out of people. Not gonna bite.
Yes and no.

Notice I never used the smiley face or a thumbs up? I don't like riced out civics. That's a given. That's just me.

But an accident appearently caused by a ricer trying to beat on comming traffic to make a left turn, makes me very angry at the total lack of thinking by these kids. Maybe someone will think twice after reading about this.

People get hurt because morons don't want to obey the rules.
Ok, some kids got in a car accident and put people's lives in danger. What difference does it make if they were driving a Civic or Buick? You went out of your way to lay into imports again.

These kinds of accidents happen because the ricers think are driving race cars and drive stupid.
No, these accidents happen because you have inexperienced children driving 3000lb of steel. I knew plenty of people that drove irresponsibly, import or not.
Yes, other makes cause accidents too.

The percentage of ricers driving stupid is far greater than any other group I know of.
Do you have any proof of this, or is it just your unbiased opinion?

EDIT: so as no one would think that I am completely heartless, no one was seriously hurt in the accident.


BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA!

I take it that the blinking windshield wiper fluid nozzles died? YES! :D

While I would agree from my personal findings... I don't think it's 100% true in all cases.
besides, not all of these cars are slow. some people rice up their car and make it fast.. then of course, they willl be racing if their cars are fast for sure. Not all ricers are your typical "ghetto bling bling" of altezza's and chrome hubcaps.
