Yes, I have gotten into a couple minor accidents before, but as for any major accidents (the ones with injuries and deaths), I haven't gotten into any of those accidents.

Hello there & How are you? I'm super duper! ..

Luckily I've never been in an accident and I really pray for those who have. I've come close to an accident in the past though, with a small minivan on the motorway, but we backed up safely and got out of the way. I can only say .. Thank God for that!

Once when I was eight I was in accident. We were travelling on a highway and a deer jumped into the middle of the row and just stood there. No one was injured, but the car was wrecked. Other than that I have never been involved in any accidents.  

Almost, a few months ago, I was coming home from school and I was turning and somone smashed the back of the car. There was not very bad damage but it was scary. I don't want it to happen again!

Yeah I actually been in more than one accident. My first one was when I was little, and I was coming from McDonald's with my Ice cream when some Jack hammer with a big truck came zooming down the road. Keep in mind I had my ice cream. Well we were coming out the parking lot he hit us, ad my ice cream cone flew every where. I demanded him to buy me a new ice cream, and yes I did get it. My other accident, is when I broke my leg. I was on the side of my big brothers car as he was backing out the drive way, My foot got caught under the wheel, and my whole leg eventually got stuck under. The bad thing is I was about to miss the week I had to take Tcap. The good thing is I didn't miss it. It was the week after that, and by then my leg was healed up, and I was able to go to school. Well it wasn't entirely healed though, nut I could go to school. I got all the attention, and post cards telling me all types of nice things. That was really cool right .

generalspleen : The accident that injured me at all didn't involve a motor vehicle, I don't like using them, Just my Bicycle, Unless you mean my Bike and I'm just being an idiot, But believe it or not I haven't recovered completely from my injuries, My hip still has pain years later, Nothing I can't live with, I mean... I do serious competitive boxing, But I still have to keep an eye on my hip, But life's life isn't it? It what doesn't kill you that makes you stronger, Or at least that's what I hear, All I know is that every little thing that has happened to me has shaped who I am, And I'm okay with that, As always, Enjoy your time, You've only got so much.

Wow!!! So many comments on my thread... This is gonna take some time to reply back lol. Here goes nothing...

generalspleen : Not quite, That was a different place, Almost a full year after the bicycle accident where I broke me hip.

Frodlex : Ah ok. Btw did you come check my thread just now because I summoned you properly or no? If I didn't could u please someone everyone I replied to. Thank you

Light Knight : I like to summon the person I reply back to so they can see what I say to them. Plus I usually ask more questions when I summon people back after I replyed to their posts on my or anyone else's threads. It's just how I am I guess. And thank you for summoning all of them for me. For some reason when I try to do it off my phone it won't summon properly and I don't always have access to a computer unfortunately but thank you again for summoning them for me

generalspleen : No, I meant but why didn't my summons work either.

MattyIce : That is both a relief and an upsetting moment. Trucks are built to wistand minor hits without causing hardly any damage. That why you never really see a construction company drive regular cars around. They aren't as reliable as trucks. And I hate to say that since I'm not a big fan of trucks but its true. And you said that you parked your car at the bottom of the hill and ur dads truck on the top of the hill right? When I pictured that I saw your car behind your dads truck and your dads truck parked up by the garage... But then again I live in area that has driveways like that lol. I'm just glad you and your dad were ok

Well yes, sort of. You see, my friend is not a great driver. I give him a hard time about it all the time. He had this old school pick up truck and he drove stick, but he was not good at driving stick and his truck would stall sometimes, so the fact that his truck also drove sketchy made things even worse. Anyways, it was winter here in Canada, so there was a blanket of fresh snow on the road, making for slippery driving conditions. My friend drove through a light that was about to turn yellow, when in the middle of the intersection, his truck stalled. He managed to get it up and going again, but the wet snow made his tires spin from under him and he swerved left to right and barely managed to get out of the intersection when the other light turned green. That was our close call for the night. So when we were going home, the conditions had gotten bad again, because it snowed, the snow melted, and then it snowed over top of the wet snow so the roads were especially slippery at that point. my friend turned to pull onto my street because he was dropping me off. He hit a wet patch of snow and did a 360 and popped the curb and the car stopped in between a stop sign and a fire hydrant and was a few inches from hitting someones fence. It was really intense and that was the closest thing to a car accident I have gotten into. My friend has gotten into a few accidents since that day and both he and his girlfriend (who is not a great driver either) have both gotten new cars, due to car accidents. None of them have any injuries from their car accidents though thankfully.

Oh and by the way spleen, this is the kind of thread that will get a lot of responses. Make threads that everyone can relate to.

Now on to my other story.

So when I was in high school, I did something called co-op, which is working in exchange for school credits. If it is available at your school, I suggest you do it. Anyways, I walk home from the co-op placement which is maybe a 20-30 minute walk for me, which is about what I am used to, because I have always walked places. So I would cut through a Tim Hortons plaza when I would walk home from the co-op placement. One day I was walking along the side walk, and I was about to cut through the plaza when a car pulled out of the plaza and onto the street really fast and drove straight into another car that was waiting at a red light. The cars collided and were maybe a foot from me when this accident happened. I was fine, but it was a really close call, especially because I was not in a car. The car that got hit had a dent in the side of it and the person who's car was hit was flipping out and swearing at the guy who pulled out of the plaza because there was no room for him to go and he just drove right on through and straight into the car that was sitting at the red light. There was absolutely no logic for this car to have driven onto the street, since there was no room and plenty of cars were waiting at the red light in front of and behind the car that got hit. It was ugly, but I am very glad I got out of there unharmed because clearly this driver was clueless, reckless or out of control. Any of those adjectives should not be words to describe someone who is driving a car, since they are very powerful and can be very dangerous as well.

I had an accident last year with my car. My friends and I went to the Poconos to go to the Pocono Go-Kart place. Well, I got lost and instead of turning around on a side road, I headed into a church parking lot and smacked into a metal pole because I was in a panic and I didn't stop to park and think what to do next. Now, note my friends and I live in NY. So, we had to drive from PA to NY and we had to duct tape the front part of the car to hold the front end up. Well, after I brought the damaged car back, I had a fender bender and a destroyed wheel well. It cost me $2,100 and I was without a car for 3 weeks. I had to go to college that following week after the accident and I didn't get my car back until after Labor Day. 

Let's just say I was happy to make it back to NY in one piece. I was also happy none of my friends got hurt. Because of that, I'm extra cautious on the road. 

generalspleen : I almost was when we were getting into a gas station. But where I live, accidents are rare! (Not really, we always see them) But I've never been in one. Unless having to transit from Seattle to get to New York on the plane counts.

Surprisingly, no, I have never been in an accident in my life. It's probably thanks to my parents actually being good drivers. Or I'm in a smaller neighborhood.
