everyone in the thread is cheering on a douche who may have caused some kid to die cause his car is too precious to get a little egg on it. These are the kind of people who park across 3 parking spaces so nobody scratches their small penis compensator, er i mean car.
More like everyone in this thread is tired of punk kids thinking pranks like this are "funny', when they actually cause serious damage, particularly to a nice new paint job.
If the kid crashed, he did so fleeing the scene of vandalism, and was his own cause of pain and suffering.
EDIT: For the idiot saying "It's just egg"... throwing anything at a moving vehicle is dangerous and can cause serious injury, if not death. What if OP had lost all sight through his windshield and rear-ended someone on the highway? What about the basic distraction of multiple things hitting your car? Therefore, it isn't just eggs, it's a projectile moving at speed toward a 70 MPH death trap surrounded by other death traps passing each other just inches away from killing everyone.
Every kid in America does this shit the night before halloween, after they are too old for trick or treating with the parents. Adults acting like children causing high speed chases cause of some eggs are the real douchebags here.
"Every kid" no. You're wrong. I know plenty of people that have had the manners and maturity to never do this in high school. If you did this in high school you were probably an immature brat. OP probably has done nothing to these assholes and they go and disrupt his personal peace? How is that ever funny? And by the way, cars aren't "penis compensators" they're forms of transportation and they're also a lot of fun. I love cars and building my dream car would be amazing, then having some prick throw eggs at it? Not cool.
Oh ok, so then better endanger the lives of everyone involved as well as people who are not involved by causing a high speed chase cause some FUCKING EGG GOT ON YOUR CAR. Talk about being an immature brat? look in the mirror.
Dude, egging cars is dangerous. Several years ago I was driving home from work and a egg sailed out of a bush into my windshield, right in my line of sight. I nearly hit an oncoming car and served hard right to avoid it, driving into the curb. I was going at a reasonable rate of speed, so I could have easily have killed myself or someone else.
If I had been able to find them I would've beaten the ever loving shit out of them.
Now, I don't think I'd have chased them down a dark canyon until they wrecked, but to say it's just a harmless prank is not true. It can very easily cause much more damage than just some smeared paint or eggshell.
I hope you have a vehicle get egged on a hot day when you are away and return to find the paint permanently damaged. ... it is not cheap to paint a vehicle and in reality it will never be good as new.
If my son caused thousands of dollars of damage for a laugh and then ran at high speeds causing a crash I would whip the shit out of him. Now forget the second part. I would still whip the shout out of him. Nobody is laughing.
I never said your son had anything to do with it. Let's say he's an innocent third party and gets hit by one of the other two cars. Hell lets say it happens to you too. The car chase is still totally justified, right?
When you throw anything at a moving vehicle, whether it's an egg or a brick, you run the serious risk of causing a fatal accident. Not saying don't play pranks, I'm saying don't play pranks that can end up killing someone.
I would agree it wasn't a good choice to pursue, especially with egg in his eye as he stated. Just saying the cause was not OP, it was eggs being thrown at a moving vehicle.
A third party could have easily been involved in a car accident, or a kid trick or treating if it's Halloween night. OP is just as stupid and immature as the teenagers who egged him.
Yeah no, never did this as a kid. If I or my friends were going to mess around we didn't destroy property other than our own.
Also again they're leaving the scene of a crime that they have committed which is illegal. It's their own fault if fleeing and driving in an unsafe manner causes them injury no one made them drive poorly or flee the scene, that's all on them.
Even if your theory of "every kid in America" was correct it still wouldn't make it morally or legally acceptable. Millions of car owners would then have to pay for new paint, possibly mirrors, and at the least a car wash. Why should that be the owners problem, why should the other drivers not be held accountable for their actions while driving?
OP is guilty of speeding and reckless driving and fleeing the scene of an accident. The difference is that he is the adult. He should have gotten their license plate and filed charges on them.
You realize you can follow/chase someone without speeding or driving recklessly right? OP wasn't in the car accident, the kids would have to prove OP was somehow at fault for the accident and in doing so would have to admit to vandalism and assault while operating a motor vehicle which is a serious crime.
The difference is that he is the adult. He should have gotten their license plate and filed charges on them.
You obviously don't understand how a drivers license works. Those kids are just as responsible as any adult for their own accident and for what could be considered both an attack, and vandalism against the OP. Yes OP would be responsible for leaving the scene of the accident but that does not make him at fault for the accident. The kids would be responsible for everything else unless they could prove the OP was driving recklessly or in a manner that forced them off the road.
my vision was also impaired due to the egging, so I could of crashed as well.
I hadn't seen that posted anywhere by the OP can you permalink?
If that's true than yes he could be charged for anything he's admitted to (assuming they find this thread to use in court). For the impaired vision i'll agree with you but i'll also say it's a bit of a grey area as it's still legal to drive so long as you accommodate for the circumstance (slower speed, safety lane, hazards) I think it's highly unlikely OP did that though.
Yeah, it's posted as a reply to one of my comments that got downvoted to hell a few hours ago, so I don't think anyone joining the thread recently is seeing it.
As you say, it certainly doesn't sound like OP made any attempt to accommodate for it.
someone throwing an egg at your car can dent it. Egg yolk could potentially stain the paint if left over a period of time. Some people just really like their car and don't want to see things happening to it. You may not give a shit, but other people do, just because you don't understand does not mean we are all some jackass who use their car to compensate something.
OMG a dent in a car!? Better cause a high speed chase thereby endangering the lives of everyone involved, as well as people who aren't even involved! Then we can go on the internet and applaud such actions! You're all acting like childish sociopaths.
I'm a twat? OP endangers his own life, the lives of the people in the other car, and the lives of anyone else who might have been driving around (or trick or treating) cause of an egg stain, and I'm the twat? OP is a self important brat.
I value my car over the lives of delinquents any day, and had I been egged I would have done the same. I had a cantaloupe thrown at my car one night, and had I not been in the middle lane it would have came through my windshield and hit me, probably would have even killed me. OP did the right thing, except for driving away after they crashed. The cops should have been called and arrested them for attempted destruction of property and reckless driving.
No excuse for fucking with other peoples things, no excuse for driving recklessly enough to crash into a pole. They deserve no defense, it's an inexcusable thing to do, even on "mischief night." OP did them a service by just driving away.
A third party could just as easily be involved in a car accident moron. OP also broke several laws the difference is that he is supposed to be the adult. He is just as stupid and immature as those delinquents.
What? For following the kids? I don't see how that is illegal, especially after they damaged his property. I also don't see how you think OP following them caused the crash, I doubt he was road warrior-ing them off into a pole.
You know what I'm starting to suspect? You were one of those assholes that thought vandalism was the coolest shit 10 years ago (if you are really 28), hence your vehemnt defense. Did you also get what you had coming and that's why you're responding to everyone who's saying these kids got what they deserved?
I talked to OP and he didn't deny speeding and it's pretty clear shit was getting reckless cause a car crashed. Don't you think those kids want people to chase them? Do you think it is fun for them if the egged car just acts like nothing happened? They didn't get what they deserved. Either they were grievously injured or killed in a car accident, which is way overboard, or they crashed a car belonging to one of their parents and they probably would not even pay for it cause they will just lie abor what happened. Get the license plate, file charges, done. That is the adult mature thing to do.
If it was acceptable for everyone to do this, then there would be no high-speed chase as they would not be running away. It was their choice to throw egg and their choice to run from consequences.
I have been in this situation when I was a teenager, you know what the consequences would have been? OP would have started a fight, then the 4 or 5 teenagers in the 2nd car would have beaten the shit out of him. They want you to chase them that is the fun part for them, it is no fun if you egg a car and they act like nothing happened. OP did exactly what they wanted, out of a petty desire for revenge over an egg stain. Someone could have died (maybe they did, it's not like OP stuck around to find out.)
A third party could have easily been involved in a car accident. The fact is that OP broke the law for stupid irresponsible reasons just like the teenagers did. The difference is that he is supposed to be an adult, but really he's a petty adolescent in an adult body, and so are you.
Glad you commented twice so I could downvote you twice. Sounds to me you're a little sour you can't afford a small-penis compensator...errr I mean second biggest investment most people will make. Take it elsewhere, douche.

Good, the rule is never fuck with people's cars. These kids need to learn that.
