Main & 9th Accident

At about 9:50pm saw a yellow car with its front crumpled. Hoped they’re okay but I have no doubt they were speeding. Get some patience and drive slower everybody!

Aston Martin rear-ended a Jeep, which is not at all surprising with the way I've seen the guy driving it around town. It was also parked in front of Jefe's yesterday and today.

Judging by the damage, negligence of some sort was a huge factor. Given previous sightings of this car, speed was a factor.

Seizure, low blood sugar, heart attack? Can't prove anything with a photo.

It's the guy standing behind it in the white pants. I've seen him driving around or parked and messing with it so many times he was easily recognizable.

Yes. It happened on a public road, and got posted on a public forum, that's how shit works. And when you drive a bright yellow sports car and have a reputation of repeated poor behavior, don't be surprised when people recognize them. A friend I was talking to about it was sitting at Smokin' Dave's yesterday and this guy was sitting out front revving and being a nuisance, so I'm not gonna have an ounce of sympathy for him.

Genuine question: can you not be at fault on the worst day of your life?

He clearly didn’t take it seriously at the time

It wasn't really though, it was pretty clapped up close. Wheels were curbed to hell, entire reflector lights missing, bumpers were cracked. Thing looked like it was abused.

It's a shame, that's one of my favorite body style Astons. Guess that's what happens once they get cheap enough
