A pig farmer, a few beers, and a sneeze=two totaled cars

Some of you may know i have a auto repair shop, in the North bay, anyways I was inside my shop, closing out the days tags....about 6pm or so,......when i hear what sounds/feels like the end of the world....WTF???...

I ran outside my place and this Moth** F***** totaled my full size Chevy truck and totaled a NASA RX-7 race car parked out front....

This 73 year old pig farmer hill billy, was drunk off his ***, doin about 70+mph when he ran over a 400+ pound street sign, ran into/over and exploded two 1000+ pound stone planters, that damaged 4 SUVs next door, came across the parking lot, and hit my truck on the driver fender/hood/bumper turning it around, and finally hit the RX-7 head on, sending that car flying in the air, back about 25 feet, before coming to a stop at another huge planter.....

I asked the old bastard what happened before they hauled him off to jail, and he said he "sneezed"...LOL.

At least he didn't kill anybody like the other guy up here. There are too many drunken old people driving in the north bay. The old guy who killed the girl on the bicycle got drunk at the bar by my house.

f*ck drunk drivers!! They should be stuck in jail. A danger to everyone even remotely near a road. He's lucky no one was hurt, though I wonder how...

Send him...

To:

South Africa: 10 yr. prison sentence + 10K in fines
Finland/Sweden: 1 yr. prison w/hard labor

Or better yet:

El Salvador: Execution by firing squad - first offense!!

Put him on the plane, get him liquored up, and give him the keys...

WTF? Does your insurance cover uninsured motorist? What about shop insurance if it was on your property when it got hit.

That freaking blows. I'd a whooped his *** and said it happened in the accident. Then again..he was a 73 year old pig farmer. Probably would have stabbed me with a pitch fork.

That pisses me off. You spend tons of money being a honest driver with insurance and some ****** without insurance nails you..if you don't have the coverage you get ****ed. I think it should be automatic. I mean if we HAVE to have insurance they should HAVE to cover EVERYTHING. ****ers.
