Sorry if I came off like a jerk, just the people crashing these cars make me wonder.

enough of the jokes guys. he wasnt driving like an idiot at all. the driver is ok and got of the car right away. he just lost controll.
it was wet out as u all know. if u've ever driven over a big puddle going at a decent speed u feel the car get loose. in this case it got real loose on him and he lost it. end of story.

Yes, I also know that you can slow down going through said puddles and not get "loose" or hydroplane as its technically known. It could be said he could have avoided the puddles as well.
Heres my point. Im not trying to condemn this guy, but your going out of your way to say it was not his fault in any way. I like others would disagree. I bet the report the police filled out would list at least some blame on the driver, probably going too fast for conditions.
I think people are tired of seeing kids wreck Evos and causing insurance increases, hence why this is becoming a hostile thread. Let all of us remember accidents happen, there are two sides to every story, and the fact that most wrecked Evos are the result of unsafe driving causes true accidents to be less believable.
