Sunroof smashed

Bladerunner · 12-20-2011, 09:07 AM

My sister was driving to work this morning in her 2006 328i when something fell off the truck in front of her and this is the end result! She was driving from Markham to North York, not sure exactly where it happened!!

matrix76 · 12-20-2011, 09:14 AM

Wow, thats a first. Hope she wasn't hurt.

farbmw · 12-20-2011, 09:23 AM

I hope she is ok!

Do you have the object that hit her?

Because if you do,you can give it to the police and they will investigate an probably find the truck that it fell out of and charge them.

Bladerunner · 12-20-2011, 09:37 AM

She's ok but couldn't find what fell off, it bounced off the top and on to the road somewhere. She opened the sunroof to see what happened and all the glass fell into her lap. It's a good thing the hard cover was closed or else it would have went right through and hit her in the head!

OK that is very good that the cover was close, glad she is ok.

Now if this happened on the major highways, report it to the OPP, on the other roads report it to the locals, because they can still investigate and charge them from the video tapes. This is very serious, too many people are hurt or worst because of truck crap.

Wow, glad she is ok

Imagine with it open and kids in the back seat.

ZZZZ · 12-20-2011, 02:08 PM

damn, that's scary.

on the bright side, swapping the sunroof glass alone is a fairly easy job.

MalM3 · 12-20-2011, 02:35 PM

hmm, when i first saw the thread header , my first reaction was "not again.."

but in your case, she was just unlucky

Glad nothing / no one else was hurt

homieG · 12-20-2011, 03:50 PM

damn that's insane! Glad she is ok! Wonder how much it costs to replace it.

dpw198 · 12-20-2011, 04:12 PM

Wow...that's unfortunate. Glad your sister was not injured.

catch · 12-20-2011, 04:12 PM

woah! thats horrible! glad shes ok... hopefully she reports it and the find out what happened...

pHo_e92 · 12-20-2011, 05:35 PM

Damn! I am glad your sister is ok and wasn't harmed at all. I really hate careless truck drivers who don't secure their stuff properly. I hope the opp finds this individual and charges so he learns his lesson!

ive heard a lot about these sunroofs doing this. i dont think it was something off of a truck that hit the window. it seems to have imploded. check around on the forum, theres a few cases of this happening to people
