This happened to me last friday when i was driving home for the weekend to see my parents. A lady ran a stop sign and t-bond me on the passenger side spinning me then i rolled twice and landed on the roof of the car in the ditch. I opened the driver door with my shoulder when i was hit (now my shoulder is messed right up) The lady that it me has been charged with careless and failing to stop.
















Sled goes like a cut cat

When I sled I like to make a line that no one can follow or if they see it they say " What was that guy thinking"

Wow, be happy just your shoulder is messed up and that you're OK. That really sucks but you're 100% right about the seatbelt. I am guilty of not always wearing mine but it is those times you least expect something to happen when it does. I'd seriously consider a lawsuit if your shoulder is messed up or is/will prevent you from doing things. If it was a no fault accident it would be a different story but this dumb woman driver was probably blabbing on her cell phone or not paying attention.

Let's hope that shoulder heals in time for the snow!!

MODS to come! Newer sled first!

Old doesn't necessarily mean slow!!

Do what you can with what you got.

Me and my sister rolled her car 4-5 times. We both had seat belts and they did save our lives no doubt. Glad to see you are ok.

Right above my head.
