in case you missed it, last night on national television, obama claims to have bowled a 129 and compared it to a special olympics performance. quite the gaffe that only a non-obama supporter can truly appreciate

There are some good and valid reasons for writing a car off, after which, people will say "oh, fair enough, that explains it". Such reasons could be something like having a blow-out at high speed, some other driver swerving into you unexpectedly, hitting a huge pothole etc. Such things will more often than not result in a totalled car.
What is NOT a good excuse for totalling a car, is "I was totally wasted drunk". That just makes you out to be an inconsiderate dangerous driver of the worst kind - ask anyone who's had their loved ones killed by a drunk driver what they think of your excuse. Another bad reason is trying to make a 180 degree turn at 120km/h. A formula one car would struggle to do that in the dry. Again, simple stupidity is the reason there. Yet another totally dumb excuse is to be driving at 230kmh on a single track road. That's Autobahn/track speed, not minor road (or non-road) speed. As bad as all these excuses are, not being insured or getting someone else to accept the blame doesn't make you a cool dude that's really clever. It just adds to the profile of being a complete danger to the population.
It seems to me that you're likely to continue totalling cars until you eventually end up not surviving one of the crashes. I really hope you don't take anybody out in your inevitable upcoming crashes.
