lol.

i think it was the combo of comming down a slight hill with a right turn and me flooring it at that exact moment. i do remember being surprised the the back was going out but I was thinking even until we hit the medium that everything was in control. lmao.

no but he screamed a bit and then wipped out his cell and called 911 and then called the dealer. after the hocus pocus was over we all went back to the dealership where the salesmen all gave me the stink eye. i slowly gathered my things, did something like this..

and was on my way.

Whoa! Awesome...

I think what I'll do on this fine Sunday is leave mine parked safe and sound in my driveway, go down to my nearest Nissan dealership and wreck one of my own!!! Sounds like a hell of a good time!

Who's with me? Let's keep the numbers of these vehicles low so that we drive "rare and exotic" cars... teehee

So what happens? Is it their insurance that covers it or yours? I feel like all they do when I test drive is just get ahold of my driver's license.

The dealership plates are there because they have insurance coverage for test drives. The customer can be on the hook for the deductible however.

Here is my understanding...
In the US, the car carries the insurance, not the driver. So be mindful of who you let drive your car. That said...

the car's insurance company can go after the driver's insurance company for the claim. The most you will likely be out is your dedectible, but can count as a claim against you.

I think some states it matters.

That, and your insurance always protects the other car/driver/passengers/property...not yours...

Wicked game they play.

Was everybody OK, For awhile here in Missouri you actually could test ride a motorcycle. I rode a CBR929 before i bought the thing, i think that is nuuuuts. This was about 65 miles south of St.louis, they don't offer that anymore

mrmixitup · 07-05-2009, 11:08 AM

Get another one. And drive much faster next time.

Once the car finally came to a stop, that was a perfect moment to slowly turn your head toward the salesman and give him a Chris Farley Tommy Boy "What'd you doooooo?"
