So on saturday night (well technically, it was more morning, since it was about 4:30am), some friends and I wanted to get a ride home with a friend from a party.
Earlier in the night, a chick had cut her knees open with a broken beer bottle (just picture one of those typical obese scene kid poser girls that starts listening to metal for all the wrong reasons) when she was wasted, so we figured the night couldn't get anymore fucked up
The dude driving was sober, I hadn't drank at all that night, and my other friends in the car were pretty much sober, so it seemed all would be good.
On the way down the main street where I live, Sean (the dude driving) decides it''s a great idea to try to drift around the last 1/4 of the roundabout
The road was wet due to it having started raining again about 30 minutes prior to us getting in the car.
Of course, Sean overcorrected, and next thing we know, straight up the curb and into a pole with a water meter box on it.
Luckily no one was seriously injured (the worst injury I have is an extremely sore chest from the impact) but it just makes me think how much worse it could have been.
I can just imagine if he were going faster, and the pole had struck the passenger door rather than more towards the back, the door could have caved in and squashed my friend's chest and legs who was siting closest to that door.
Fuck this shit, I just wanted a ride home, and my so called friend decides it's okay to toy with people's lives
Sean's one of those typical, egotistical pretentious wankers that I do my best to avoid generally, but now after this, I think I'll make more of an effort to avoid him and just never get in a car with him again
