Many of us have been in an accident at one time or another, wether
driving or a passenger, at fault or blindsided. What are your
experiences. They often make great learning experiences, and are
usually interesting reading.

As for me:
1: 1st time driving 15y/o with a learners permit. I was stopped at a
traffic light, and had been stopped for 30+sec when this lady plowed
into me going 40+mph. no injuries, but moms van was never the same.

2: Middle of nowhere, honda prelude, driving for 17+hrs and they
closed freeway cuz of ice (they let cars currently on the freeway
continue, but when you got off, even for gas they wouldnt let you back
on) going 50mph when a surburban starts passing me, loses control and
starts to slide into me, outta reflex I slammed on the brakes
(MISTAKE) and proceded to hit the center K-rail, then the metal guard
rail on the other side of the freeway, and back to the center K-rail
effictivly smashing up 3/4 corners of my car. the surburban then takes
off w/o stopping (20miles down the road I passed it while it was
upsidedown, I stopped to help)

3: getting into my car from shopping, my door was still even open and
some guy backs into me, then takes off. I hop in and follow while
calling the police. $3k in damages, and he claims he didnt even know.
cops cited him for hit and run, reckless driving, and an out tail
light :) sadly my insurence company (same as his) called it a NO FAULT
and didnt cover the repairs.

for 1.3 million miles and way to many hours to count of drive time not
bad.
