    Ugh, yesterday after work I was in a crappy mood "you know how work gets you" and Im parked on a slant that rolls into a high curb. Anyway I jump in, start her up, throw her into 4th gear......4th gear?! Yep and Almost smacked into the curb! I missed reverse! Good news is I stopped about 2 inches away from the curb and got out without a scratch! Anyone else have any dumb stories like mine?! smile

    Eric, i think you would of died if you hit the curb!!!

    here is my story. this was a couple of years back. we went on a road trip. our puppy tried to jump in jer's lap and hit the steering wheel, making my car fishtail. the options were to A. go to the right into a ditch or B. go to the left and hit a truck head on. "A" it was. Civic ended up rolling. We jumped out and with the help of other motorists, rolled it back over. NOT 1 SCRATCH or DENT! no joke.

    we head back home and decide to go to a friends house 1 street over. my lazy arse should of walked. i was at the friend's no more than 30 mins when a tow truck driver backed into my car completely busting up my bumper and lights. all i could do was laugh. things like that ONLY happen to ME!

    okay, i'll shut-up now smile

    Angry

    More of a break in than accident but I had left my car in the parking lot at work under a security camera for about 2 hrs. 11:30 in the afternoon. Lots of cars coming and goin. Damn theives disabled my alarm broke my rain guards to get in the cabin to unhatch the trunk. Stole both my amps and nobody saw nothin! Dammit! Anyways Had to get a new car alarm with all the goodies. Insurance didn't even cover all my amps but oh well. The only thing that I was really mad at was the damn rain guards. Can't get those suckers anymore! I hate theives!

    About two weeks ago i was heading for home, and when i turned on to my road some guy i a minivan rolled throught the stop sign and hit me! Before i got out of the car i pictured the whole side of my car smashed but no, he only hit me in my bumper and took the paint off. When i told my mom that i wanted to turn in a claim she just said it would to much paper work. O well im getting it repainted in july anyways. Still, it pisses me off. Damn minivans!!
