Car Accidents Options

[Noviwan]

I don't know if this is a topic that was posted before but has anyone ever been in on or seen on in person?

I have so far been in three the most recent one was on May 7th 2010. Me and my friend were driving home from a double date in Plainfield which went okay. So it was dark and he decided to make a left turn and BAM! My side including me gets hit by another car luckily I was not really hurt other than my Right side being extremely sore. My right hand was skinned to I have to keep ointment on it. Anyway I have not been able to contact my buddy I think he thinks that I am mad at him. I hope he shows up or contacts me soon. I can understand that Friday was the first time we'd hung out since he moved away half a year ago. His car was totaled I got to ride in an ambulance for the first time ever we took him home after they gave me the okay. So how about you guys?

Never been in an accident, but I have almost been killed twice by (assumed) drunk drivers. Both being after midnight..

One being someone ran a red light as my friend was turning left. I, naturally was in the passenger seat and would have taken the full impact. My friend got PO-ed and chased down that car as I called the cops. In the end, my friend and I got to watch him get handcuffed and put in the cop car. =')

The other I was driving around a highway wide corner and at the last second avoided someone who was driving down the wrong side. We were both going 70+. I have a 2006 cobalt, which is a fairly tiny car. No doubt a 140mph head-on would crinkle that car into a soda can. EDIT: Found the topic I wrote about this.

I should probably stop driving at night huh ;)

I'm really glad you're okay, Noviwan. :)

EBWonder: I've never seen any car accident deaths, thank God. But it does change how you drive, for sure.
