My car was recently hit in the parking lot. I had to file a police report and report the incident to my insurance company. The guy who hit my car was a complete jerk about it and was yelling at me. First time that has ever happened to me. I cried so much that day... π
shareI was twice. Once as a passenger on my vacation in Greece and once as a driver at home. Hopefully, it was not a big accident and no one except my car was not injured :D
shareYes I've been hit by a car and run over. And been in a few motor vehicle accidents. Yes, I'm serious.
shareOh how painful. π
shareThree times my body has been hit by vehicles. When I was a young kid, an idiot on a pedal bike riding with no hands blind sided me from the side and the handle bars hit me right across my face. A pedal bike is considered a non motorized vehicle. On another occasion, an idiot, who couldn't hold his brake pedal down allowed his car to roll into me crossing in a crosswalk. Hurt my leg, gave me a good charlie horse. Then an incompetent forklift driver hit me with the forklift, and rolled over my foot. And I've been in vehicles that have had collisions and rollovers.
shareSometimes we donβt make the best decisions when we are kids. Iβm glad you are okay though....
shareYes, but nothing serious.
shareI've been driving for 47 years and the only collision I've been in was on an icy hill and I hit a parked car. Actually, two parked cars. They were my neighbors and were very decent about it. I and they were in good hands with Allstate.
Oh, once I was coming down a hill to a yellow light and I thought the car in front of me was going to go through but they surprised me by stopping and I just tapped their rear bumper.
I got out and could see no damage at all, but the lady ahead of me got out screaming, "YOU HIT MY CAR, YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!" I asked her is she was alright and she kept screaming and cursing at me. I said , "I'm really sorry, it was an accident, it was totally my fault, but you don't have to curse at me. Are you sure you are okay?"
She kept swearing and when she stopped, she got in her car and drive off.
Back in '99, I was driving my stepbrother to school on a rainy day in my mom's Mercury Cougar, which had rear-wheel drive. As we were cruising down the road, my stepbrother turned to me and urged me to gun it. Without hesitation, I floored the gas pedal, and the car quickly spun out of control. Before I knew it, we careened off the road, rolled over, and fell about 15 to 16 feet down into the forest on the side of the street, landing the car on its side.
We managed to crawl out of the car through the passenger side window and walked away without a scratch. A Good Samaritan who witnessed the accident quickly called an ambulance. When the ambulance arrived, the paramedic checked us over and called my father. We were close to the house so he showed up in about 10 min. When he arrived the paramedic told my father that he he had seen many such accidnets and that most people don't survvie. He then told him that he should take us out to a celebritory steak dinner because we were lucky to be alive.
Since we were 18 years old, we gave zero fucks and laughed the whole thing off like it was nothing. The hard part came when I had to call my mom and explain to her that her car was totaled.
Iβve been in four low speed accidents. The first was my fault and I told the police officer that. Three other times I was at a complete stop at either a red light or in a parking lot and was struck by another vehicle. Each time I insisted on calling the police so I could have a police report in case I needed to report a claim. All three times the people who hit me yelled at me. Once my car was hit while parked and I was not in my vehicle and the person did not leave a note.
