Someone Tried To Dori In A Commo, Took Out 3 Cars And Ruined My Lawn :(

So yeah, looks like Mr Commo owner tried something new - took out 3x cars and ended up into the pole. I'm a little upset my lawn is ruined, and he's cracked the gutter.. :(

On another more serious note.. this happened around 7pm, it took the local cops 2.5 hours to come to the scene. Then they breath tested the dude and he barely scraped through as being legal to drive. If they have gotten him 2.5 hours earlier when everyone called they might have had him for DUI.

So yeah... not sure what to think of coppers to when they come and talk to you like you're some criminal too. And to add more salt to the wound, they kept saying "your greenslip will cover for all the damage to your vehicles, trust me I've been doing this for years"...

Anyhow, what a night!

Sydney.

What more can you say?

2.5 hours for police attendance is ridiculous in this instance

Lawn in the photo doesn't look too bad

hopefully he gets a stiff penalty.

Will certainly be paying it off for many years

What I find ironic is that the coppers refused to do a police report because no one was hurt.

But seriously, he was doing so top speed shit to even cause that much damage. If he was doing 50km/h I am sure there would have been less damage than that.

And by the time they got there, he had sobered up.

Yeah when they moved the VT commodore it took a chunk of my lawn out :(

wouldnt be greenslip, thats for personal injury. he'd wanna hope he had TPO or full comp cover

if I were you I'd certainly be sdending him a letter of demand to fix your lawn!

That sucks man, how did he even manage that? Not like you live at an intersection or curved road...

"Serve and protect" guess that doesn't apply here. Should've told them you're selling drugs to the driver, they would have turned up quicker.

Let this be a warning to everyone!...

If you try to ram-raid Johnny's place, you'll only get as far as his lawn!

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
