Well, it was more like I hit my mom's car, and then trying to get out of it, I hit the support beam to our garage/house thing. We have a funky house, sorta Frank Lyod Wright.

I hit a car in the parking lot once...when I was 14. It didn't do any damage, but eh. What's done is done my man. Hope everything works out. :)

Reznorite420 05-26-2003 08:09 PM

Worst "accident" I've been in didn't even result in any damage (other than bruised feelings) or injuries; over X-mas break, I was riding in the car with my sister driving, we were leaving Wal-Mart, and as we were pulling out it started to rain. She made the turn and we spun out of control...slowly crashing into a fence. Like I said, no damage nor injuries. :D

GK Punk 05-26-2003 09:47 PM

yes I was at a young age, my Grandmother was killed (who was sitting right next to me) My brother got whiplash, my mother had a cuncussion and there were several other injuries involved.

To this day I try to avoid cars like the plague.

Nickokapo 05-27-2003 04:05 AM

Im sorry GK..
I never really trusted vehicles, i guess one day i'll have to use one, to go to work or whatever, but i for one would rather avoid em aswell...i crash in racing videogames enough already, i dont really wanna try driving irl :P

*sees Kya's list* Damn.. now I don't feel so bad anymore! Of course, being a pizza delivery driver for a couple years really didn't help my driving record any... :oops:

- bumpers of other cars (too many times!)
- ex BF's car door
- taillights
- other people's sideview mirrors
- landscape boulders
- rubbed up against a phone pole (didn't turn wide enuf around it)
- backed into a phonepole
- rear ended someone... 2 times
- slid into people infront of me due to slick surfaces... 1 1/2 times
- swing my car door into other peoples car doors hard enough to made obvious dent (then not say anything about it)... more times than I can count
- ran a golf cart into a barn door
- rolled the farm truck into a ditch
- have the insurance company threaten to cancel my membership with them
- wondered if I should sign up for MTV's Jackass... 3 times

Not my fault...
- got rear ended... 2 times
- front impact cause some idiot did not yield right of way (Still was cool how my truck shattered all the windows out of that Escort after he pulled out in front of me). The fortunate thing, I wasn't hurt, even though my truck was a mess!

My ode to Ranger Wreck!

PWDESAI 05-27-2003 02:32 PM

Jeez HT, I'm glad I don't live near you... :wink:

HorseTechie 05-27-2003 02:49 PM

:goofygri:

But I've been good now! Honest, I have. It's been over two years since I hit something.

:teek: :tsweatdr: Remind me never to be on the road within a hundred mile radius of your cars.... :P :wink:


I'm a good driver, really.
In the nearly three years that I've been driving (hey, I'm only 19!), I've only done the following:

What happened: Backed into my stepdad's pickup, hitting the (solid steel) back bumper. No damage, though he still yelled at me. Like it was MY fault. He'd just finished yelling at me for something stupid (and completely unimportant, but that's my stepdad for ya.), causing me to get upset, when he knew full well that I was about to get behind the wheel of my car. Which he had parked directly behind.
Outcome: No damage to other car. Minor damage to my car, no repairs neccessary -- Part of my (plastic, of course) bumper was cracked.

What happened: Ran off the road way out in the country. Found myself taking a rather rough (though short, thank heavens) ride through the grass. (No shoulders on these little two-lane roads. Too much farther down the road, and I would have found myself in a ditch.)
Outcome: No damage.

What happened: Tapped another car backing out of a parking place at the library. When there was only like five other cars in the entire lot. (I've never even hit anything at WALMART, for crying out loud!)
Outcome: No damage to either car.

What happened: On the way to work, rear-ended several Mexican guys in a really pretty car with flawless black paint an lots of chrome. I freaked, of course, jumped out of the car and, (crying :dead: ) asked if they were ok. None seemed to be upset (Thank you God!). The driver got out and inspected his car. Apparantly, I had just hit the very end of his (chrome, of course) tailpipe. With a smile and a reassuring "Don't worry about it," he got back in his car and drove away. I got to work and cryed for a while.
Outcome: No damage to either car.

What happened: ...Oh, I forgot about this one. There's this road on my way to school that v's off the highway. And naturally, there's a driveway right before the v. It was getting dark out, and some dumbbutt pickup was sitting in the driveway, making it look like he was pulling out of the ROAD. Consequently, I pulled off too soon, going about 65mph, and promptly found myself booney-bombing through the grass . On the plus side, I didn't panic, stayed in control, and didn't hit the fence. Or anything else. And my car was fine. But the morons in the pickup (which I had zoomed right past on my way into the grass) didn't bother to see if I was ok. As soon as my car stopped, I glanced in my rearview to find them pulling out onto the highway, leaving me alone to deal with it. Typical men.
Outcome: No damage.

What happened: Ran over a large piece of tire tread. (wasn't my fault. I was cut off in all directions from missing it, and it was in the MIDDLE of the lane.) Didn't even lose control, though a piece of plastic (that my mechanic stepfather assures me is kinda like the car equivilant of an appendix - useless) was torn partly off.
Outcome: Minor damage, no repairs neccessary.

I swear I sound like a worse driver than I am. I'm pretty good -- I have to be for the morons I have to share the road with. The lack of any serious accidents is pretty good evidence. Texas drivers are scary.

HorseTechie 05-27-2003 05:53 PM

Garrr... God must've not liked my favoritism to using Decepticon Seeker power to ward off the jinx. Some dude in a Astrovan rear-ended me on the way home from work! Make that three times now I've been rear-ended. (two times in the pooor Beamer I have now)

Fortunately, no damage was done to either of us. *phew*

*notices Kameko's list* heh, yeah, the most important thing to remember... no squishy lives were taken! :wink:

TMNT571 05-27-2003 06:26 PM

i wasn't driving but me and my friend where going to the mall and some stupid lady stopped at a intersection that had no stop sign for the way we were going. plus it was icey so when he slammed the brakes we didn't stop. hit here doing bout 25. totaled our car and smashed the back of hers to ****. The only thing could do after was laugh because my friend started driving a little bit after we hit here. I was like dude i think we need to stopp the cars smells like it is burning. He asked me if i was alright and i started laughing and said yeah all excited like cuz of the endrenaline.

Kameko 05-27-2003 06:34 PM

Ooh, I just remembered the one other one, and the most serious. How could I forget it! I'll add it to my list up there.
