Friends dont let friends drive their cars.

Last Thursday a friend was doing me a favor and running across the street to the bank for me. And decided to hit a pole. Wasn't his fault really though. It's a bitch of a drive and he is unfamiliar with the area. There is this yellow pole in the middle of the banks lot to protect the ATM drive through, and he hit it. Says he got blinded by the sun (which as sounds like a shitty excuse but the sun is a BITCH in that drive).

Bleh

Heres the pics. (9000 miles)

ok, uhh who goes to the bank for someone else? Don't they, i dunno, not let you bank on someone elses behalf? And uhh.. if it was right across the street, why did you let your friend drive your car instead of walk? If he fits in the recaros hes gotta be fit enough to walk across the street.

Was making a store deposit we both work there, he is approved. It's across the street, but still would be about a 15-25 min walk and I needed him back to the shop? He has his own car (a GTO) but he was doing me a favor because I was busy so I said here take the 'balt.

Why even question something or troll a post like this? What do you gain exactly?

me? I gain nothing but comic relief from the mundane, but you? you gain higher insurance rates for being a ******* and letting your bro crash your car.

You're just an *******, and a *******; mundane doesn't even make sense the way you used it. Who enjoys seeing bad things happen to other people?

meh, its an accurate literary device given the context, you could argue technically its used wrong, ill give ya that. I never said I enjoyed seeing bad things happen to people. Hate to bring the realism to the post, just pointing out that if you hand the keys over, this crap happens. learn and move on.

Insurance isn't going up. Both are through State Farm so they kicked it over to his.

Insurance rate stays the same so long as the guy pays out of pocket or with his own insurance policy.

Damage looks minimal, shouldn't be too bad of a repair. The paint is new so blending shouldn't be too tough, either.
