A dangerous game

I played some Trackmania last night and got into a car accident today. I'm fine along with the other driver, but my car's right front end is shredded.

Q.E.D. - Trackmania causes car accidents.

You know, I'd never heard of Trackmania before but it looks fantastic, and reminds me of Micro Machines (despite being life-sized) - I'm going to have to have a go of that. Sorry about your car, though - was it a case of a residual thought of "Oh, traffic jam - I'll just drive up that wall, easy"? ;)

Oh, how I wish. It was more a case of thinking I could turn onto a busy street but not being able to see the one lane as well as I thought and having a beast of truck sheer into my right front headlight and bumper.

More on-topic, I do wholeheartedly recommend Trackmania, and a few versions of the game are free.

I downloaded Trackmania Nations Forever, I think it was, last night, and had a go of it this morning [...] I'm really enjoying the game so far.

Er, my brother-in-law's just been in a car accident. Hit on the side by someone turning on to some insane Californian motorway arrangement. He's all right, just a scrape on the knee and a visit to the doctor to check on a painful ribcage, but his car, like ilario's, will be written off as having more damage than it's worth repairing.

Careful of Trackmania, everyone.
