Your partner has crashed your car into a pole. What would you tell them or how would you react?


so many factors- first off are they ok? then what happened? and thank god no strippers were on that pole, lol!

It is only a car.

That actually happened to me. She crashed the car into a light pole in a parking lot, leaving work at night. I got a phone call from her co-worker. I consoled her, took her to the hospital and had her checked out... she had a head injury that turned out to be nothing serious.
My partner would never be allowed to drive the car I bought with my own money if I am not in the car with them already.
Why wouldn’t you lend him your car?
It’s our car. It can be replaced. He’s not.
I figured out long ago that material things come and go, even when it isn't your own fault. The people are the important thing. AFTER I knew she was okay, I might be frustrated about the car, but it's not like is some incredibly rare, irreplaceable object. It's an old Acura.

Now, if she crashed an original, genuine 1965 Ferrari 250 GT California - aka the Ferris Beuller car (though that one was a replica), then we couldn't be together. As it is, I still hold a grudge against Barbara Hershey, who owned one of these hyper-rare machines in the 1970s, including the ultra-rare factory hard-top for it ($250,000 for that hard top alone today!), and she decided she wanted some air so she pulled over on the side of the road somewhere, unlatched that hard top, and chucked it into the ditch and drove off. That is simply unforgivable.
But since I don't own any $20,000,000 cars, that's probably not going to be a problem. :)
My wife was in a fairly bad car accident years ago, not her fault. After arriving at the hospital and inquiring about her condition and seeing that she was basically OK, I asked about the condition of the car. She's still pissed off at me 25 years later for my asking about the car.
A while back she crashed (on our scooter) into a stray dog - if that counts.
Had a triple somersault, and woke up in hospital.
My reaction: I was with her in no time.
What I told her: ''That wasn't wise''.
And: surely, I also spent a few thoughts on how to fix the bike.
Both were reasonably functional, though :)
I’m glad you’re okay. I’m not gonna hit ya... I just wanna talk, thats all
Juuuust kiddin
Ik his driving an’t as terrible as mine. So long as he is okay, and recover, mentally stable enough to finance myself a new car.. we good! Id do the same for him
Assuming I was in a relationship, I’d be so happy he’s okay, we can always get a new car, but I can’t get a New him.
@LaFemmeFatale_1 Can I ask for your advice on an neighbor?
What kind of neighbor are we talking about?
a girl :) dm me, ill give you the details.
C..
How in the Fck did you hit a pole? Learn how to drive will you , this is not an " accident " its a smash , and just showing some poor habits.
Would I be mad that they crashed my car? Probably, if they’re the ones at fault. What’s most important though is that they’re ok.
Firstly, is he okay? When a car crashes into a pole, it usually results in severe injury or death. The car can be replaced. He can’t.
Thank heavens you're safe and sound.
A tin box on four wheels can easily be replaced.
I'm just not good enough to be primarily concerned with their well being.
I admire the 70% who say they are but I know I'm not
I would just be concerned for her safety. We have insurance. It would be a good excuse to get an upgrade.
Where is the 'Be impressed they didn't break the windshield?' option?
My wife is irreplaceable, the car is not. Id rather she be alive and safe i could care less about my car.
I'd wonder how she managed to escape the padlock I had chaining her to the stove.
i would scream. see if they're okay. i'd be mad about the car. but i'm trying to work on my emotions.
the screaming would mainly be coming from seeing if he's okay, what happened, and overall scared emotions. not out of anger.
I don't care about a car. It can be replaced and is insured. Is she ok is all that matters.
😳 that is bizarre to me. What if she hit ur 69’ mustang
@Boomchakalaca i know it'd be bad, I'd be disappointed, but it's just metal and glass. If she was drunk or doing something she shouldn't like racing it, that's a different story. But accidents happen and as long as she's not hurt, maybe it's just me?
Ur an angel..
@Boomchakalaca awww 😚 aren't you sweet
I would be like what happened its a straight road... I would be glad she's ok. My car have casco insurance so i would get a new car pretty fast.
I'd make sure they're okay.
And they're paying for the car fix later.
I'm not that big of a car enthusiast. Of course i will just be relieved she's ok and just ask her what happened.
She's not going to be okay if my car isn't repaired! It's a crash into a pole, not a multiple car pileup by the way.
What if she's in hospital fighting for her life. Then not going to be such way period 🤨
return it as you took it or kill them and sell the bodies to pay the garage
Once she's okay 👍 that's all that matters, car can always be fixed or replaced.
I'd have to try and figure out how she got hold of the keys.
I voted B, but I'd be very angry.
Doctor, now. I won't take no for an answer.
I would have asked what happened to that pole 😁
All that matters is that they are not hurt
Stuff can be replaced. People can't.
All that matters is that he's okay. ♥️
with her insurance
Id be furious.
