I was 20 when I got into my first accident driving my own car.

some girl decided to run a yellow light as I was coming through (it just turned yellow as I entered the intersection) and she for some reason didn't notice my car coming? head on collision... 100% her fault. I got off scot free :D


I can't picture it at all. Explain how it turned into a head-on. If you two were facing each other driving both driving in their respective lanes even if someone ran a light, you two will just pass by.

2 I think. My dad was driving, '67 Mustang and I was belted in a car seat up front. Some lady ran a red light in a big caddy and broadsided us. My carseat broke free and hit the dash but luckily I was not ejected from the car. :) Apparently I wasn't even injured and afterwards I said something to the effect of 'big boom'.

16. It was a rainy day and the chick behind me was following too closely. When I was turning right into the school parking lot, she couldn't brake in time and hit my rear bumper. Thankfully my Taurus has <5 mph bumpers so there wasn't any damage.
