Well, was on my way to Eric's house (adsm08) with my buddy Jason, to help him and his wife move into their new house. We hit a patch of ice on the road with Jason's Focus goin about 35-40 and we spin out and run the rear end over a barbed fence and up an electrical-pole guide wire. The back end up the car was 2 yards up off the ground and that was the ONLY thing supporting it (it was the direct center of the car-bumper too)
. We got out, said "well, this is interesting". Walked to the house, and the local neighbor farm pulled us out with their tractor. We werent really phased at all really, it was unexpected, but even the farmer and all his family (the Norman farm, one of my teachers was there and she knew us both, unfortunately, the pole we hit was theirs, and we knocked out their electricity, it was fixed shortly after). No police, nothing realy bad. I offered to come by tomorrow and fix the fence we took out, but they told me not to worry about it.
NOTE: none of this was luck, and neither one of us panicked, it was just like if it happened to us normally
Aparently there is a lot of crashes there o_o.
End on end, wish I had gotten an image (considering we had like 3 cameras on us), but we decided its better to leave it with us and our memory.
The front bumper of the Focus was pushed up (we tore it off and threw it in the back seat), the lights are now a little more loose, popped 2 lights (side-turn signal aux. lights), knocked the pin for the hood loose (gonna fix that), a small dent in the side, the CB antenna tack we had done broke off (in the back of the car), and the passenger rear light cover has a chunk of it missing. Nothing bad, we drove it without any issue at all to Eric's house.
We drove a LOT that day, so the crash didn't really phase us at all
