Re: So I was in a car crash.

Most serious car accident I've been in was when I was on a bicycle. Also know quite a few people who've been hit as pedestrians.

Re: So I was in a car crash.

About 3 years ago, I was about 5 feet from getting t-boned by an F-150 that ran a red light. I was driving a Ford Focus. He would have hit the driver side door.

It happened a few hours before I was "let in" FFYa.

This was a month ago.

I was Driving a 2002 GMC jimmy, I had a friend with me and we were driving through a back lane when suddenly we got T-boned by a 5-tonne loaded with soil. We rolled twice and took out a fence, and then walked away completely unscathed.

Glad you're OK.

I've been in one car crash, December 2008, I was 24 weeks pregnant, too. So spent a lot of time in hospital because of it; it makes me very nervous to drive/be a passenger 3 years later.

Really glad you are ok.

I've never been in a car accident nor have I ever been pulled over/in a car that has been pulled over. About a half a year ago though I narrowly prevented my friend from running a stop sign and crashing head on into an oncoming car at about 35 MPH. I l was like "You stopping? Stop? Stop. Stop! Stop!!! STOOOOOOOPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was pretty scary and I made him turn off his loud music for the rest of the drive.

That's the car I had a crash with some years ago.

The driver got both arms and legs torn appart.
I got ejected along with the door.
The guy with me in the back got his jaw broken.

It's a miracle we're all alive still.

The road was icy, and the car slipped and ended up in a T position with an upcoming 18 wheels fully loaded truck. We got ripped to shred. Both of us were going @ approximately 100 km/h. So that's quite a crash.

Roads and cars aren't toys.

We all did, obviously the woman driving can barely move today, but she's sooooooo lucky she STILL can walk. She opened a milk bar afterwards.

Yeah its insane. We would have been hit by a full speed train and it wouldn't have been worse.

decrease your chances of being in a car crash: don't drive.

Re: So I was in a car crash.

My car broke down yesterday in a left turn lane. The second day in a row my car broke down and the second day in a row I went back to the dealership.

Diagnosis: It has a rod in the number four cylinder. They're taking the engine apart and if it's bad enough, I'll be looking at a new engine or a new (or new used) car.

I currently drive a 2002 Ford Focus SE. I'm looking at maybe getting a 2008 Ford Escape XLS 4D Sport Utility for $12,998 at Carmax. I was loaned a 2011 Ford Escape XLT from the dealership.
