AMA my friend broke her skid plate

r/

So I had just gotten off a night shift and my friend and her friend wanted to go on a hike and asked me to choose so I agreed. I didn’t feel like driving because I barely slept so I didn’t want to put anyone in danger or anything keep in mind I usually drive. I also had no knowledge of this path/ hiking trail prior to going. It’s a slightly off road path so she needed to drive so because her car sat low granted she did have a 4 wheel drive car so objectively it should have been just fine. However 1 she was panicking when she was driving because there were big trucks that could ball up this trail at like 40 miles an hour no issue because the cars sit really high compared to hers I tell her to slow down I don’t know how many times at first calmly, and then a little more sternly because she was driving over all the pot holes fast. We then hear a big clunk and step out the skid plate is broken in half. We drive back further down the road. eventually we get to a point where we can kind of work on the car and we asked these kids for duct tape and they recommended we use our shoe laces to try to pull it together. I’m scrambling to get under the car because she said she did not have a jack. And a few minutes later another guy pulls up and gives us duct tape. It turns out she did have a jack mind you the thing was on loose gravel so I was kind of nervous I spend a while under there tying it up. While she is messing around making peacock noises so to her friend because they saw one or whatever while I was under the car struggling. We start driving I can’t believe I have to tell her to slow down but I did because she was still driving super fast. We get to the house she’s blaming me for the trail I had no clue about the trail. mind you and her lack of driving skills were not my fault. Her and her friend ask if I wanna go to lunch later but I was super tired cuz I got off night shift barely slept I was like honestly nah. She then hits me with the Venmo request later for $100 dollars I was like damn I pay it drops off my hat the next day didn’t even speak to me at all and unfollowed me on social media. I was like damn bruh that’s that 😭.

    so she got mad at you because she broke her skid plate?

    why would you pay for her skid plate if she’s the one that broke it
