3rd lane - Toyota Carina ED, 1.8 liter, 1993
It was raining…
the trip was coming to an end…
drive some 2-3 more km and would be at home…
Slowly I followed the truck from the very beginning of the street (Proletarskaya-Voyennaya) and leaving the turn, the road turns from 1 lane into 2-lane and then almost 3-lane (trick), a wide lane formed to the right of the truck, along which you can drive without any problem. about which, without thinking, I line up with the truck, on the speedometer 60-70 km / h and I almost caught up with the truck (attention to rebuild later) as an unexpected blow, clang, and the car was thrown to the left then to the right and stopped ...
and then I realized that I flew right side into the curb ...
The first impression is that everything went to hell … and the car is on its belly, but no, the car is on flat tires (right front and rear). Later it turned out that there was a huge hole on the front tire, it was thrown out and the disk was very slightly bent. The rear wheel has a side cut, which is also unpleasant!
The debriefing established that the "wide lane on the right" is not a lane at all, but a pocket for parking a car, which ends with curbs.
1.5 hours of rain of cold torsion bolts of waiting for my winter tires, and I went ... but not like before.
I'm waiting for the verdict of the service station on the condition of the suspension ...
PS: 1) you definitely need to do something with the headlights…
2) why did the lights work after 20 minutes as it all happened
3) don't repeat my mistakes! there is a widening of the road only to the left!
And if I were you, I would drive home slowly and not worry, I somehow broke the wheel to the house, it was 20 km left in 3 hours, I drove empty because there was no spare wheel, and there was nowhere to take such a wheel at 3 o’clock in the morning after all this, the disk was balanced without rubber 0 (even) to be honest, I myself was shocked
