i've had a rear end once. back when i worked night shifts. so about 6 yrs ago i drove home in the morning. suddenly - traffic stopped. so i slowed down and stopped with traffic, to look up and watched as a car came barreling down on me. then another crash after that.
the person who crashed into me was smashed into by a truck. i was not at fault. though after fixing the rear bumper we found the rear axle cracked. byebye.
When it snowed here in San Antonio in '85 or '86, they didn't have the salt to put on the roads for the cars to have traction (since they aren't as prepared for snow as the northern states) so they used gravel instead. Turns out that was a bad idea, because people would get their windshields shattered by the gravel shooting out from under the tires in front of them.

I've been in three car accidents. I was the driver in none of them. First one was back in '93, and the most serious one too. My mom was driving and we got in a wreck as she was turning left. I was in the backseat, so all I received from the accident was a stay at the hospital and several scars on my left arm. The second one I was in was back in '05, my youngest brother was driving. At the time, he's not as experienced, so like a dumbass, he missed a turn and made an illegal turn and his car ran into a pole, so he pretty much smurfed up his car like an idiot. A couple years later was the third time with the same brother, except this time we got rammed from behind. It wasn't really that bad, some idiot just bumped into us from behind like I said. We felt a jerk, and I would know about this. I was carrying a CD case and it fell over when we got hit. My brother was freaking out the whole time, he kept repeating "Oh my god." and I was trying to calm him down before he went out of the car.
That's about it for me concerning car accidents I've been in.
Apparently, I have been declared banished.
I've been in minor situations, but nothing too serious. The loss of a rear side window and a couple of minor fender benders.

Two of my friends wrote their cars off within days of each other. One of them inside the first week of having his license. Guys. Come on now.
Once I backed into a guy's truck and totaled the back of my car, but he ran off after that (he said he was late for a movie) so according to the police it counted as HIS fault. It was great.
Once, and I was a passenger. There was a girl at my school I used to be friends then I realized I hated her. Every week she had a different sexual orientation, obscure language she would speak, and hobby you weren't smart enough to understand. She made atrocious grades, had atrociously-dyed blood-red pigtails, was a huge pervert, and wore a godawful wool vest with wolves on it.
Well, me, my best friend, her, and the other gay guy at our school went to the mall in the dude's car. She insisted she could drive after she lied about her dad being an auto racer and taught her everything. She drove terribly. There was perhaps sixteen times in that forty-five minute trip she was perfectly capable of killing a fellow human being. She stopped really abruptly at a green light for NO smurfING REASON and totally demolishes not only the guy's car but the guy's behind us as well. Then the guy behind us just drove off. She insisted that never happened before. Then she graduated and learned Xhosa or something.
I hated her.
I totally forgot to mention this. I didn't crash, but I did hydroplane like a mothersmurfer on Friday night. I ended up at 90 degrees from the direction I should be facing.

that sounds terrifying.
jiro is going to think i'm trying to one up you
anyway canda winters. i tried to make a right on a green. nope. the car kept moving forward. i ended up turning into the right turn lane ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD I WAS TURNING INTO
Then I waved at the guy just stopped there and drove off.
You totally are trying to one up me.
There was no one on the road when it happened to me though.
no witnesses; no pics. did not happen.
I've never been in a bad car accident. I've been rear-ended like six times, but that's just so darn rear-endable. On my last car, I was smashed into so many times that I actually ended up making money off that car. xD
I was also-side swiped by a woman that I estimate to be in her mid-eighties... we were doing approximately two miles per hour, waiting for a stop sign.
I've caused two accidents. One was just me bumping into someone, and they waved me off. The second time I rear-ended the short bus in front of the school I was teaching at. I bent their bumper but they didn't bother to stop.

Nah you're cool
I had my first car accident about a month ago. I was getting onto an off ramp, and someone cut in several cars ahead so every car stopped really short to avoid an accident. I had to do the same, and I stopped just short enough to avoid hitting the car ahead. The person behind me didn't, though. They also were driving a big truck.
Luckily, the damage was minimal to bumper damage. The person claimed I hit the car in front of me and then she hit me, but fortunately the evidence showed otherwise in the damage itself, so I was put at zero fault. Additionally, a good friend works at an auto shop, so everything was fixed for free and without any increase to my insurance. :3
