The "miracle" Mustang

There's a Carsmart used auto sales lot here and they always put some nice cars out by the street. Anyways, this morning some kid in a little compact car goes over the neutral ground and slams across the front of several cars.

He wacks the front of FIVE cars, but right in the same row there's this Mustang that is between two of the doomed cars. Didn't get a scratch, just got sprayed with topsoil.

My friend and I drove by right after it happened, and I said "Wow. The guy that owns the car lot just LOST five really nice cars."

My buddy, always the optimist replies "Well, if he has insurance then he just SOLD five really nice cars"

I went back over there and snapped some pics, but the car lot had blocked the view by putting two vehicles in front of them. You can see the front of the miracle Mustang in the bottom pic. The cars on either side of the Mustang are damaged.

What a mess. Glad it wasn't my kid. I don't know how he missed the Mustang, must've had some left english on that last hit.

DAMN!

One of my friends had his camera taken away after he took a picture of his wreaked grandpa's car. They had it in a wreaked and tow recovery lot. Everyone including his own grandpa who was in the hospital wanted to see the pictures. He said he lifted the camera over his head so he could take a picture from over the wood fence and I guess someone saw him and ran out there. He said they yelled "stop" right when he started to run back to his car, they walked up and yanked the camera out of his hand and said "you can't be taking pictures of these cars for legal reasons we are seizing your camera and you will not be getting it back". Then they told him to come back to the main office as they were going to call the police. The police came and talked to him about taking pictures of obviously private property and places that especially have signs that say "no photography or video allowed" (in which he claims he didn't see). He said that everyone in his family put him up to it including the owner of the car (which was the one who had to be there to release the car from the lot but was in the hospital...). The police took him back to his house where they talked to his parents.

The rest of the email was mostly him complaining how he lost a new $500 camera...
