I ran over a tire on the freeway at night. It cracked my bumper and I don't have time to fix it. Lousy trucks and buses should pay more attention to maintenance.

bah. cruisin home late after a party at about 15mph, a stupid *** deer t-bones my driver side. Insurance covered most of the accident. I had to put $500 up though. The shop I went to did a perfect repair. It was like it never happened.

Then 3 months later, I was heading off to school early in the morning (just so I could get a damn parking space) while getting onto the offramp I drove over a nice patch of oil. It was downhill and I was going about 25 mph; needless to my car slipped and I ended up next to the guardrail. I went to the same shop, but this time the color was off a little, the fender job wasn't too well, and they cut the top bar of my headlight, probably while trying to get it off. Cost me $600 this time around. This was 2nd accident and hopefully my last.

I wouldn't have been so mad about these, if the cause of the accidents were intelligent. Insurance said the deer could not have possible been the cause of the accident. They insist that all deer accident involve the deer being in front of the car and visible to the driver, even though the damage was clearly all over the passenger side. They must have thought I swerved or something. If it was in front of me and visible, I would not have hit it. The oil looked like a puddle and it was too early in the morning.

Just had one in January. and I thought I had it good getting my front bumper changed to an octane front, my hood into carbon fiber. but I just noticed last May that my AC is broke so there it goes the good and the bad. If you are wondering why i just noticed it in may is because I rarely if not never use my AC at all.now it's like $300 to fix that leak I'd rather get mods instead. LOL!!! good things come from bad things it's just the way you look at things.

I braked hard for slowing traffic due to a police chase that ended in a fatal crash, was almost at a complete stop and got rear-ended by a guy in a Taurus doing about 50mph. I was pushed into the car ahead of me, and then another car rear-ended the guy that hit me.

The woman in the car I got pushed into was an illegal Mexican without insurance and she fled the scene. I memorized her license plate though and gave it to the cops. (I still remember that plate to this day... almost 5 years later).

I read the police report. They called her into the station and she lied through her teeth, "The people at the accident said since I wasn't at fault I could leave." even though we were running after her car telling her to stop. If I did something like that I would be royally fcuked by the system. I how how these illegals get away with everything. But I digress.

Last year i was picking up pizza going around a tight S turn i hit a pothole (that wasn't there earlier) and it threw me off i ended up getting sideways and said "hello ditch".

Again last year my girlfriend at the time was all into hondas after seeing F&F she had been asking to drive my car (she had a Camaro Z28 BTW) so the once time i let her drive it some dumbass rearends us at about 5 mph. No damage to the cars but he got out the car smiling. Some short little kid that looks like he just got his license and hes f*cking smiling about it.

Early this year at a car show some guy said he hasn't seen under the hood of a 7thgen so i pop my hood and everyone flocks around like i got something badass im like "Ummm guys its almost stock" but the guy was all pointing at looking, he leaned on the fender and dented it.He ended up paying for it.

A couple months ago a moving truck (one of the smaller ones) ran a stop sign doing 75-80 and totaled my mazda. He got out the car, looked stoned off his *** and said "I didn't see the stop sign" IM like "Theres a sign telling you a stop sign is ahead". He ended up getting only one ticket for disobeying a stop sign ($273). I later talked to a cop friend (would you run from a stingray corvette with lights on top?) who said the guy could have gotten 6 or 7 tickets. Speeding, Careless operation, reckless driving, i forget the rest but i ended up getting another mazda.

I have been in a few.....

Got hit on the side when I was making a left turn by a guy that had no headlights on....I was pushed up a curb and into a sign for a restaurant. I was driving my sisters 88 toyota tercel...It was two months old at the time.

I slid down a hill....in the winter, on ice in a 1988 Toyota Celica gt hatch. I slid onto Northern BLVD...which is a really busy street. I got creamed by a volvo doing 65 in the right lane. I spun around 3 times and hit a snow bank....Totalled the car. If the volvo wasnt here, I would of been dead....There was an 18 wheeler in the left lane....This was back in 1991.

Some guy blew a red light and ripped the front end off my 1983 honda accord.

I was waiting at a red light with my friend Neal in my 1994 honda civic. A guy was coming up fast behind us, didnt stop and just smashed into my back bumper. My car was lowered 2 inches to the ground and after he hit me we went under a corolla and the corolla hit a lexus. That was in 2000

It's funny. I've noticed a few of you have had 3 accidents. They say things happen in threes, especially when it comes to bad luck.

My first-I ran over a pot hole that I didn't see because it was pouring and it was filled of rain. I needed a new bumper, and the radiator & support were pushed up, so my hood didn't shut right.

Second-This boy pulled out making a left into my right of way and hit my driver side fender & bumper. My bumper will never be the same , but the fender looks good.

Third-My car was broken in.

This all happened within 3 months, each incident 6 weeks apart, and between 2 Friday the 13th's. I am forever superstitious.

lol was it the humane society?! LoL after all the neighbors were awake and I got back to the scene, a humane society (I think or animal protection) van pulled up. They scooped it inside and as I was waking back into my car, ready to go to the station, BOOM. If they would have nursed that deer back to health, I would have bought it, taken it home, keep it in my basement, and beat the **** out of it on my bad days. It only had 2broken legs from when I saw it lying on the ground, they didn't need to kill it.

I was driving a little too fast last september in my 01 EX coupe down a windy road after it got done pouring in the rain. Well I found the limit to my car that evening. I learned that even with Koni adjustable struts, ground control coilovers, and strut bars stock firestone tires do not grip good going 65 in a 35 mph curve. As I went into the curve, my back end started to slide. And I made the simplest, stupidest mistake. I over corrected. I went spining off the road and into the woods. I hit 4 trees, a ditch, and one more tree that stopped me. Well I figured the car was totalled. But my insurance decided that the car should be fixed. $9,700 worth of damage I did. I'm just glad though that it was at midnight and no one was on the road when I wrecked my car. And that I was able to walk away with minor cuts and brusies and it messed up my back pretty good too. Even since then I'm affraid to drive fast wen its been raining LOL.

My car was parked at school and I was in class. Someone decided to back into a parking spot right in front of my car. Needless to say there is a nice hole where the guy put a hitch into my front bumper. Then decided not to park there. Wonder why? I still have the bumper on my car. Havent found the time to take the bumper off and fix it until I get a aftermarket bumper. Happened 2003.

Head on into telephone poll, ripped front axle off car, ripped it in two and each side was on either side of the road.

Only 1 accident, 3 theory is true though this is the third time in my life I should have been dead but still alive.

all my accidents were in my old car, an 88 olds cutlass ciera (loved that car). i hit a mailbox once and a corner stop sign when the roads were iced over. i mean serious black ice, you couldnt see it or do anything when you got caught in it. no real damage from those.

the first real accident was on my way to school in the fall (like after thanksgiving or colombus day or something). traffic was heavy, i was following traffic. the pathfinder in front of me slammed on his brakes, i tried to swirve so as not to hit him, clipped his rear bumper and clipped the side of a car in the next lane. thats what she said at least, i didnt even see her on my side. didnt feel hitting her either. had blue paint from the mailbox on the bumper, so it was really hard to deny anything. (hitting a mailbox is like a fed. offense or something). so that was like $1200 damage. fixed it...

then that winter, big snowstorm in MA. classes cancelled, we decide to have a night of drinking to celebrate. i drive to liquor store, all is great. come up on a gentle curve going 30, car doesnt turn. i hit a tree, front of the car gets off the ground for a sec. 4 people in the car, $300 worth of booze in the trunk, me not 21. figuring out a way to get the stuff out of the trunk so the cops wouldnt see it was a shady operation long story short, car died...all the booze was intact, no one hurt. i drank a lot that night. damage was about 2000, car wasnt worth more than a 1000...so we junked it.

those are all the accidents ive been in in my 8 years of driving.
