Wow... that is really alot of accidents for some of you people. The accident that happened to me was so close to where I was going :(
 
I have never been in car accident and never want to be in one.
 
^ Good job. Yeah being in a car accident is no fun, believe me.

I got into a major one. I was driving along. And all of the sudden my engine acting up on me and then my transmission. My car was going so slow and I didn't know where I was. I was driving and I didn't see the stop sign in the fork of the road and I collided into a 1979 Volkswagon Beetle that was coming onto traffic. And my car went over the side. The back driver's side got pretty bang up. And the Beetle...it lost some tailights and a mirror and it had a big dent.

Man...it was so scary! Luckly I and the guy wasn't hurt. But I ended up with a ticket for running over the stop sign. My parents weren't too happy about what happened. But they were relieved I was alive. A month later...I got sued by the guy I hit! Can you believe that?! I couldn't! He was fine! Fine I tell you! Man, well I had to settle it out of court. And my insurance company had to drop me and my parents too because I was in their policy. Yeah...so that is my story. It happened in August of 2000...the worst month and year of my life. I always been the safe driver, but nope. That dumb car! I wish it didn't act up.

But so far I been accident free for about three years now with my new car. ^_^

That's sounds pretty bad Lucy, but at least everybody turned out okay and yeah I can believe the guy would sue you after the accident. That's just how opportunists are. :\

I'm glad I've never experienced anything like you though.
 
The closest thing to a car wreck that I've ever experienced was when I was sitting in a car in a parking lot, and this big SUV accidentally backed into the front of it. I was by myself, totally off in my own little world drawing, so it really freaked me out for a minute! Thankfully, since the car was going really slow no damage was caused, and the lady who was driving was very nice and apologized about it, so everything turned out fine.

However, my grandmother was in a really, really bad car wreck when I was little. It was just a miracle that she ended up surviving--she had a really bad head injury and it took her a long time to recover from it. She couldn't even speak for several months because of the damage. My mom and I were living in Hawaii at the time, and we moved back here to be with her and the rest of the family. I don't remember any of it, but it had to have been very scary for everyone.

Thankfully, though, she recovered and is perfectly normal now! She still has a few problems (She can't hear quite as well, and it didn't help her athritis) but overall she's fine. We're just so glad that she's alive now. ^_^

Oh yeah, and one of my cousins has also been in a couple of wrecks. One time, the car actually rolled over, so it must have been scary! He was still okay, though. Hopefully, no one else in my family will ever be in another wreck like that... I know that they're all very safe drivers, but you never know what can happen.
 
Omigosh, in September (labor day), we like totally hit a poor deer. It was like totally no fun, but thank gosh noone was injured. We like totally have to walk home.... it was no fun...

Like otherwise, I have totally not been into major accidents, thank gosh... ^^;
 
Yes. If I recall correctly, it was in June 1996, and there was a terrible downpour in NY. ;_; My mom forgot to press the brakes, or something (details are blurry), and the car completely flipped over once, violently thrusting me forwards, damaging my right eye and sporting a couple of bruises. I remember crying in the rain, thinking we were dead, or something. XD; Ah, thankfully there were no permanent marks, but it did increase my fear of cars. Plus, I missed nearly 3/4 of the school year. o.o
 
I was in a car accident about ten years ago. We were going down a highway when a drunk driver hit my dad's car. Luckily, he swerved out of the way, so it was only a fender-bender for us, but then the drunk driver sped off the road. My dad called the police, but I don't remember what happened after that.
 
No, thankfully I haven't. I've been in the car behind where it's happened though. It's pretty scary and I hope that I don't have to encounter one during my life.
 
Last month, I got into my third one. XD. Well...I wouldn't call it an accident..Ok my dad and uncle were drunk, so my dad had to drive us home (yeah I know, terrible). My dad got "lost" because he thinks I set the wrong address to the map thing (the ones where you place on the front window in the car), he drove around the same place like five times. I started to cry because I thought we'd never make it. Then, he drove around the same place, but then he drove to someone's driveway...ok. He was backing up, but he backed up to far and on the back of our BMW, it was dented because he backed up to someone elses car! My dad and uncle were laughing, but I weren't. It was the worst night of my life...
 
I've been in two car accidents, but none of them were serious... X_x; The first one was when I was about 8 years old, me and my dad were coming back from shopping, it was getting pretty dark and it was slippery on the roads because it had rained not that long ago , we came up to a round about and some guy went to go around the roundabout and nearly hit us, my dad dodged it by turning the steering wheel really quickly but we ended up going into a post >.<; It was a good thing no one was hurt, I banged my head on the front seat a little bit but it did no more damage than a headache.

The second one was when I had just left my previous school (The actual day I left <_<;) We were on our way home and the traffic lights turned red so my dad stopped, while we were waiting a postal van came behind us but he didn't see what he was doing since he was looking for something (I saw him on one of the car mirrors...) And he went straight into us, my mum had whiplash from it. The only good thing about that accident was that we were just outside of my mums solicitors, so we recieved compensation for the damage, also my dad got £1,000 from the car company he got his car from.
 
Three times I think. One of them had the car totaled that we had to get a new one.

One: My mom wasn't feeling well when she picked me up from middle school with the old 1992 Toyota Camery(sp?). This was like 2 years ago I think. So the driver that crashed in said that my mom turned the corner too quickly and so we crashed into a red fence. And it was in our street too. The drivers side was so damaged that my mom had to get out of the passenger's side to get out. Thankfully, the glass didn't cut us. While we were waiting for someone to help us, I waved to my childhood friend who was in a car with her mom. Yeah I know..that was stupid. >.< So yeah, I got a bone bruise from the incident, but it healed. ^^

Two: Well I was minding my own business while playing my GBA and then something happened with three cars(Including ours) and that's all I remember from it. ^^;;; Yesh number 2 ish blurry to me right now.

Three: The most recent last year. We were just driving out of a pizza place when my mom slammed the breaks which surprised me. I was listening to my Ipod at the time, Yu Yu Hakusho music playing. ^^;; I dunno what happened after that since I stayed in the car and listened to my Ipod. And once again I wave at my friends who didn't wave back and didn't notice me. >.< I'm stupid. We had a couple witnesses and stuff..blah blah, only one of the headlight was damaged. The people said that the car we had(a Toyota Rav 4(sp?) ) was strong to withstand that.
 
March the 16th, this year. Fortunately, worst that happened was a lot of pain for a few days. oO; Worst thing? We were long way aways from our house, so we had to stay with someone we knew [that was okay] but I was homesick. xD;;;
 
Yea I've been in a car accident and it cost me my left ear. I mean I can't hear in it anymore
