Have any of you ever had a car crash? Most of us have and have been lucy to survive! I am looking for people to submit their stories of car crashes to http://www.crashstories.com/ so feel free to post yours.
never had a car crash actually but then i have crashed my bikes a few times, one of my friend had a car crash a few months back, we badly injured, i will try to convince him to write a story about it! but then i don't think he will do it for free
The only "in car" crash I've had is backing HARD into a tree when moving my car (drunk). Some nitwit slammed into my beautifully restored '76 Peugeot 504 and totalled it. Luckily I wasn't in it, but it was parked right outside my window, so I got to hear it clearly - "that sounded just like where my car is parked" - which was pretty awful.
I am very unfortunate for some reason in regards to driving and drunk drivers and crazy teens just love me for some reason. I have had 3 major accidents(Crashes bad enough for airbag pull out) since i started driving (1995 i think) minor accidents happen often. One of the funniest accident i remember is a Uhaul accident. Last year i was helping out one of my friend in moving his office to downtown area and for that purpose we had to rent a U-Haul and i was the one who had to rent it and drive it to downtown. Well when i reached there i could not find parking space and while lost in parking thoughts i pulled into a building parking and totally forgot about clearance that time i even forgot that i was driving a truck and not a car You can imagine what happened after that before i could hit brakes i had already broken 5 tube lights and i realized that i was driving truck when the it hit some water pipe and all of a sudden i couldnt see anything but water on windshield and unfortunately truck got stuck at that point. Within minutes almost half of downtown police and security was there lol before i could even gather my senses. I had to stay there for next 5 hours while police took reports and millions of pictures from every angel of me and truck and the stuff that i broke. Building management gave $5500 estimate and i was like WTF? then i realized that there was no clearance sign at the entrance or anywhere and that is where i got my case solved that police officer was very nice too and since it was building managements fault that there was no clearance sign i was saved....
nothing major. though i think my car is a magnet for stupid ppl. 1) a 14 yr old kid stole his mom's car and rams into mine. 2) drunk guy in truck keeps smashing in to the back of my car in a taco bell drive threw 3)im stopped at a red light, i look in my rear view mirror and the guy behind me is looking down at something and doesnt notice im stopped BAM right into me.
Never been involved in a car crash but seem a couple of nasty ones. Funny enough i would of had a car crash but on that day i decided not to go out but my mum, dad & sister did but it wasn't too serious & they got compensation & i missed out lol
My first car when I was 16 was lost to a pizza delivery guy. I just saw it coming in time to turn my wheel which probably lessened the side impact which is where I was sitting. He was going about 25 on a 25 and didn't stop at the stop sign. I was going 35. I wear my seat belt now! I have dodged many idiots and would not mind one bit if they made it harder to get a license or did more thorough mandatory training. Too many idiots on the road who think fast and furious is real life and you walk away from 100 mph wreck.
my father locked up the brakes around a corner with our whole family of 5 in the van and we fell about 10 metres down a cliff with only a small twig of a tree holding us from falling an extra 50 metres.. was pretty freaky since i didnt have my belt on
I had fallen with the car 15 meters But i wasn't the driver i was in the car i had only a headache and a bruse
I've been into a car crash almost 3 years ago. It was a total wreck! Just got lucky i survived. I'll be glad to share my story on your site once i got time.
Coincident, my brother had a car crash early this morning at 4am. Everyone was sleeping and this drunk chap banged my brother's car.
He is ok, everyone are sleeping, it is early in the morning at 4am. This chap had better nothing to do. Heard he just came back from china and he drove after consuming alcohol. My neighbor called my brother then only we woke up and saw the picture.
I was in one a month ago. A car in front of me slammed on the brakes. I didn't realise too late, i thought she was braking suddenly. Bang into the back at 60 km/h. The airbag didn't go off. I was nearly left in a coma. Knocked out for an hour.
