[QUOTE=The King of Soup] **Steve MB** , I’ve read your thread with interest, including the parts where skepticism was expressed, skepticism was deplored, hyperbole and ignorance were defined, and the literal truth of the OP was reasserted, which must have made the definers of hyperbole and ignorance feel a little sad. Nonetheless, having read all of it, since I don’t know, I’m ready to accept everything you say as the truth. But it would be nice for my own edification if you could tell me: 1. What wheel or wheels of the Blazer touched the hood of your Mazda? 2. At the light at which you were all stopped, how far in front or to the rear of your Mazda’s front bumper was the front bumper of the Chevy? 3. What model Mazda were you driving? 4. How high was the Blazer’s rear bumper off the ground? 5. How many cars were behind you, and behind the Blazer? [/QUOTE] WTH? Are you filing the insurance report for **SteveMB**? You forgot to ask what he had for dinner. JFC, the Inquisition is three threads below. ---

Sorry Steve MB, but when people make outrageous claims, most of us on the SDMB require a little bit of proof. Or some evidence that what is claimed can happen at all. Your insurance company may also wonder. Now. I suspect that what may have happened, is that the Blazer turned tight and it’s right rear wheel grabbed some of your quarter panel and hood. Plenty scary to be sure. But maybe closer to the facts? The inquisition starts two threads down. 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=enipla] Now. I suspect that what may have happened, is that the Blazer turned tight and it’s right rear wheel grabbed some of your quarter panel and hood. Plenty scary to be sure. But maybe closer to the facts? [/QUOTE] Nope. The facts are that 1)Shithead started moving into our lane, notwithstanding the fact that there was no room for him, 2)Lady SteveMB (who was driving) started honking the horn when he started crowding us, and 3)instead of backing off like a sane person, Shithead gunned it and ran his right front wheel over our quarterpanel and across the left front corner of our car. Shithead’s right rear tire may or may not have his us; I didn’t have a good view of anything in that direction. You can be as skeptical as you like. The police and insurance company found the vehicle damage to be consistent with the above description of events. ---

[QUOTE=11811] And was your tank half-full or was it half-empty? What color was the Blazer? [/QUOTE] WTF? Do think that a stock Blazer can crawl over the hood of a Mazda? Seriously? Care to explain how the right front tire is even going to engage metal, much less ride up 3 feet? ---

IF this was a stock Blazer. The OP will not address that though he has been asked a couple of times. > [@Steve MB](#): > > While everybody was waiting at a red light > [@Steve MB](#): > > as he simply used the power of his mighty vehicle to drive UP ONTO OUR QUARTERPANEL AND OVER OUR HOOD just as the light changed > [@Steve MB](#): > > The vehicle’s right front tire came up the quarterpanel and across a corner of the hood. So then. This was a highly modified vehicle? Or did some ass turn in front of you a scrape the shit out of your car? Perhaps dragging his rear tire over your bumper and headlight assembly. I’ve been driving 4x4’s for 30 years. The accident as described is just not possible unless it was a custom truck. A big, big one at that. Again, I’m sorry for your troubles. But I and others would appreciate it if you did not spread false information about vehicles you seem to know nothing about. The fact is that Chevy Blazers can not drive over the hood of a Masda. ---

**enipla** A modification to what I have said above, I don’t want, need or desire a apology from you, just a retraction or a cite. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-street-is-not-a-fucking-monster-truck-demolition-rally-shithead/379103.md?page=2)
