    im just agreeing with him on that fact that it was bad timing and probably not the smartest decision at that time. but shiiite man, a broken leg? thats a downer.

    Dude that sucks. Thats exactly what happened to me last semester, except my fall was into a concrete side barrier, I have a broken middle finger to show for it. The dickwad slowed down right in front of me, i tried to go left and he veered into the middle lane forcing me to crash.

    You and your buddies were skating in the wrong place at the wrong time.
    Who do you think has the right-of-way in that situation? ...cars or skateboarders?
    In NY this would be vehicular assault on a pedestrian (skateboarders are allowed to glide with traffic)

    definitely scary, ive been in situations like that-a few of them much worse, actual car impacts at much higher speeds on mountain roads

    At first I was on your side but now I'm skeptical.
    You say there's a sign allowing longboards but now you ignore posts by people wanting more evidence.
    Also, you post it on Break hoping to hit homepage to make 400 bucks because your buddies board got ran over? In the video at the end it looks completely fine, normally a topmount would crack if ran over, and in the rare event it didn't your axles would probably be bent, which they look completely fine.

    Whatever though, take it to the police.

    Hit and run is a felony. Have him arrested and then sue his ass. I'm sure you are connected to some good lawyers if you are from Wilton.

    it was also a double lined road which if u drive u would know means no passing...
    Those signs exist? Wow.

    Anyways that's crazy if a guy ever did that to me I would ####### punch one of his windows in. And if he got out of the car well he'd get a longboard to the face.

    I mean I'm a driver and I would never do stupid #### like that to a skateboarder or a biker. No matter who has the right of way or whatever. It doesn't matter who has the right of way. The driver could have KILLED the guy. Not only that but he wouldn't have given two shits about it. He would've just though "durr.. one less stupid skater punk on the streets."

    Honestly, in situations like that I get the 9/16th wrench that I have in my pocket and I THROW it.

    But then again people in the states have guns. I live in Canada.

    yea i was concentrating on not dieng cause i had to snake between 2 cars but those signs dont exist i lied to try and make my case seem more firm then it actually was...there is a sticker on the stop sign up on the top of the hill that says notice longboarding allowed in this area and were there so often that people should have figured it out by now...but regardless of whatever the facts are that guy is an asshole and karma is a bitch

    Even if you were skating illegally, it's pretty obvious which is "more wrong." What would you get, a slap on the wrist, MAYBE a ticket? He'd likely be going to jail for reckless driving, reckless endangerment, vehicular assault, hit and run, and some other moving violations or something.

    It makes me feel cool to throw those terms out there...

    I would take him to court just to see his "oh #### I'm ####ed" face. I'm sure you'd get enough money from that lawsuit to buy your friend 50 new set ups.
