"Don't crash. Don't learn. Be happy."

I've never been in a crash, but I got stuck behind one last Sunday. I finished a bag of cheese doodles waiting for them to clear everything. I was like the fifth car back, so I had to wait a while.

I've never been involved in a crash with myself or anybody else driving.

I'm too scared of having a crash so I drive pretty safe. I think I'll be the same when I get my full license. :jess:

Could you hook this gay van up with my car? Maybe then it can be happy and stop eating chocolate all the time D:<

I've never been in any real accident. But I have hit a few parked vehicles in my day. Yeah, doesn't count.

I've never caused any wrecks or was driving when someone else caused them, and it's been since 3rd grade that I've been in one at all.

Cars suddenly stopped on the highway one morning and I was able to stop safely. However the car behind me and the truck behind that car did not stop safely, and smashed into me and each other.

Fun times.

if your mirror goes that's not a close shave, that's a knick xD

Also I feel I should talk about my two.five year drive to school:

It starts off on an innocent dirt road, one that the sun shines straight down at some time in late winter early spring. Couple that with fog dusty windshield and frosts, it made for a couple of times where I had to drive down the road just kinda guessing where it was. One of those times actually had a man in another car in front of me! I had to follow his shadow.

Winter mornings, my heater would either kick in when I got to the house where a friend I drove often lived or when I was about thirty seconds down the mountain, with four minutes left to my drive.

At the base, there is a kinda blind curve at an interstate exit with all sorts of people and trucks wanting to turn left to go into town, so it's second nature to brake right after you go past the baptist church's curve.

Once over the interstate bridge, you have to then look out for east bound traffic trying to egress, because they're closer to the highway's intersection, they're more desperate since there's more cars there.

Once you actually get up to the intersection (it's a 2-way stop that I must go straight across), there are often semi trucks that like to turn left, and they get desperate, however when I drove there were massive amounts of trees (since bulldozed) so you had to pull up far to see if there was traffic coming, then back up quickly so you wouldn't be clipped by a semi.

If there were a bunch of cars trying to go straight, I would be tempted to turn right then pull in at a diner about 1/16 of a mile down the road and pull a 180 in the parking lot to head back, but it always seemed the cars got through by then. oh wellz

Then there was a traintrack before I got to school, so some mornings I sat and listened to music for five minutes insteadof going around (two mile drive). I was always ten minutes early for school so I didn't worry much.

Is it bad that that made me crack up? :p

Anyway, I haven't been in any accidents. I like to believe that I'm a good driver.

the last one i was like 12 or 13 and we were going to see my gpa who got in one 3 days earlier. we were switching lanes, then some car was driving really fast beside us, and we merged into them. they were back there when we turned, but they sped up, but my mom got cited

Knowing there are drivers out there that believe they can call their Internet speak, "grammar", scares me to death.

NeoTifa: Hope you're feeling better now.

I have never been in a big accident, only little ones that only caused cosmetic damages to my car.

The only real "could have been worse" accident I've ever been in was, one while living in Erie. Me and a friend went out late one night to a restaurant and I guess it had started to freezing rain while we were in side. So we left the restaurant and started down this massive hill, and a car was stopped in front of us in the road, so she put on the breaks fully realizing that they were indeed not going to stop us very fast. So we rear ended some car going about 10-15 miles an hour downhill.

That was fun.

Had it not been for a safety belt, and my hat I probably would have cracked my face in the windshield. I do think I had either whiplash or a concusion from it however.

I actually have been nearly in two accidents. One was in my brother's Cherokee, but I managed to stop enough to not crash with force, but since then, that car has a gray color in one spot in the defense :riiight:

The second one was in my own car, but I managed to get my car off the road fast enough to not crash with others that were coming to my position.

Ouch. Sorry to hear you're hurt. D:

No, never been in a serious car crash before. Hearing this, I don't want to, either. ;~;
