[QUOTE="Cementups, post: 684157, member: 8590"] My two biggest ones were complete totals. The first was a about 12 years ago and I was going around a turn about 25-30mph and my right wheels caught some slush in a little P3. The road turned and the truck didn't. I ended up wrapping it around a tree, with minimal injury to myself. The worst part was that it was a brand new PC with only 26oo miles on it. didn't even have it's first oil change. The second was about 4 years ago and I was on the highway heading back to the building. Traffic had stopped in front of me and barely got stopped in time to avoid hitting the car in front of me. I waas doing about 60-65. Just as the car in front of me started to move I got rear ended by a tractor trailer that was following me too close. he was going too fast and not enough space cushion, he hit me and pushed me right into the Jersey barrier and pushed in the right rear of the PC. The next work day our safety sup pulled me to the side and started to point fongers at me and told me we had to review space cushions and the rest of the S&V stuff. I told him to piss off as it was n't my fault and I didn't hit anybody and walked away. That was the last I heard of that. [/QUOTE]
