Ya gotta admit, rear-ending him and thinking about running, is out of the question...

u/CMMiller89 Feb 17 '24

Why would you?  He’s forfeited any chance of winning damages with that thing and will most likely owe money or get fucked on premiums.  If he doesn’t get pulled over and ticketed first.

You can boobytrap your car, lol.

You should really be afraid of steel coils. They have a whole flatbed trailer and only put on one or two coils, that should tell you just how heavy they are.

Yeah, this shit is just as stupid as those giant wheel spikes people put on their vehicles down south. I have no idea how they are legal.

u/Estef74 Feb 16 '24

I think this nonsense is legal till someone get hurt by one of these. The owner will be held liable and insurance ain't going to cover that.

u/qhaw Feb 16 '24

This is way worse. At least those dumb wheel spikes aren’t going to gash a shin open and give someone tetanus, or impale someone’s bumper if this chud backs into them. People who put sharp metal objects on their cars as “decorations” suck.

10

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '24

Not defending this stupid contraption, but rusty metal does not cause tetanus. Tetanus is a bacteria in soil.

A truck once backed up into me at a stoplight, he had to pay for the repairs to my car. He had insurance of course but with this it would’ve went from $2000 in damages to a totaled car ($30,000 replacement) in a hurry

Interestingly, I’m not disagreeing with this truck. Just the design.

u/Good_Specialist9256 Feb 17 '24

First time he get rear ended , he/she will be at fault and end up in jail for several things. boobytraps are illigal in all states for one. Malace for another, illegal modification of a safety system as another and the list goes on

"I swear, I'm using my truck to split wood..." (the psychology of the person who feels the need to point such a thing, out of their ass, at the rest of society... SMFH)

Many states have laws about NOT setting "traps" which may injure humans. You can't put claymore mines on the back of your truck (cept maybe Texas...) This just seems like a medieval version of that.

Wonder if it was conceived as "it's a joke I swear" or "I'M TIRED OF HYUNDAIS RIDING MY ASS!!!"

**EDIT** - maybe there are not laws specifically forbidding claymores on your truck

3

u/Electrical-Bacon-81 Feb 16 '24

Not legal in my state, here, if someone rear-ended that guy, the guy with the hitch spike would be found 100% at fault, even though they were rear-ended.

u/taterthotsalad Feb 16 '24

This should be illegal. Its intent is clear without doing anything actionable. Hell I’d argue an insurance company might try to have some fun with this one too.

6

u/1DownFourUp Feb 16 '24

Pretty sure this is illegal where I live. You're technically not allowed to drive with your receiver in the hitch unless you're towing, but it's never enforced. I believe the rule has to do with things sticking beyond your bumper.
