Help walking into traffic/cars?

[kindawannacrylol]

how good of a method is walking into traffic? maybe a motorway with high speed cars?

...if you want to end up as a cripple in a wheelchair.

This is extended suicide because other people may also die.

I do feel like the general consensus on ss is try not to directly involve others/ the public.. like train drivers etc. So the method you're suggesting is not ideal. Plenty of people would see the aftermath and possibly be traumatised for life.

Don't burden someone else, you will tramautize them for life and imagine if its a teenager or a child in the car and sees it, and you can become very crippled and not die.

It's unlikely that you would die, unless you were on a motorway or something. I've been hit by a police car going at a decent lick and all it did was fuck me up and put me in hospital.

It's an awful method, you're pretty much gambling on wherever or not you'll end up in a wheelchair. Not to mention you're potentially putting other people in danger, and traumatizing them too, assuming you're the type of person who doesn't wish ill will against random people.

Yeah you cant exactly control the outcome and you may end up hurt and that would be worse. You can survive a lot of breaks and bruises before the body passes on. You can survive most of the methods mentioned here. Even with a good amount of effort and planning it can still be very hard. This also seems unfair because we see accidents where it seemed like an instant death but thats always due to circumstances. I think most people here would not want anyone else hurt more than they are already from stress and life problems. ❤

I got hit by a car doing 30 screwed my ankle up . Lucky that's all it was

I think it's much more likely to step on to the freeway and have a semi hit you at a high rate of speed. People I'm sure have done it and I would imagine SI would really kick in. Also someone has to witness that and maybe feel accountable. Although in a lot of suicides people have to see it, cops, hotel staff, etc.

Here's an example of how non affective can be (not gory).



One of the women went on to murder someone the next day.

Only works in countries where there's no traffic rules in play. If one subreddit has taught me anything about pedestrian fatalities is that Saudi Arabia, China, Pakistan, Russia, and most arab countries tend to have no speed limits, so crossing the street is like playing Frogger with your body. You have a high chance of fatally being hit by car going 60mph and they'll keep on driving.

 

[SuicidallyCurious]

Bad idea as it endangers others needlessly.

I saw a chart once that showed the odd of the pedestrian dying at what MPH. At 40 and above the odds of the pedestrian living was like 1/10. Not sure of accuracy but seemed reasonable

I was considering to jump from a bridge I know onto a main motorway, thanks for the info, I see it is a terrible method and can hurt others

Problem with cars and trucks is that they can steer.

 

[readyforsleep]

Depending on where you live, the person driving the car could be considered legally responsible and at the very least you would traumatize someone for live. I am very pro right to choose suicide but walking in front of a car is not okay. Also, as others have mentioned there is no guarantee it would work.

 

[hopelessanddisabled]

I tried this. Years ago. I was only minorly injured.But I wouldn't recommend it

And abs stops cars pretty quick these days.

If you're going to walk into traffic, trains are better. I saw a picture of a train (one of the high-speed pointy nose ones) after hitting someone, the person was smashed into paste and the whole front of the train got dislodged from the impact. Pretty good if you can find a train like that.

The ones with open railways are perfect in my opinion, just lay your head on the track and easy décapitation, I'm no expert but after seeing many images it looks so fast and easy. also maybe laying on tracks at night hopefully too many people won't get traumatized since it would be harder to see?
but still my brother who used to work as a train guard whitnessed a ctb this way, he's been on antidepressants ever since. I'm not saying that was the cause of his decline in mental state but damn it's sad, but I understand people who have no other methods....
