have you ever been involved in a car accident?

Question

Answer

When I was about 8 years old... my mom was driving me and my brother home after staying the weekend at her place. We are on the highway and this guy going wayy over the speed limit (about 120mph in a 65mph zone) tried to pass us - as he did so, he clipped the side of our car. Which at such high speeds is enough to make you lose control. 
Our car flipped 4 times. Once in the air, landed on the roof, then 3 times on the ground, landing on the wheels/right side up. 
About 8 people pulled over to help us. Including 2 nurses that just happened to be driving by. My brother got out with nothing but superficial cuts on his hands and face from the windows shattering. I had superficial cuts plus a big gash on the back of my head - some dude took off his sweatshirt and put it on my head to stop the bleeding. And my mother was the worst off with a severe concussion. She had to stay a few days in the hospital, my brother and I were allowed to go home after being looked at. 
Car was totaled, of course. My mom said she had been terrified to turn around and look if we were okay. And the doctors said that had we not been wearing seat belts, we would all be dead right now.

Answer

When I was learning to drive I was out practising with my mum. We were stopped at a red light and when it turned green I stalled and a white van went into the back of us. Wasn't bad as we were stationary and he was slow but it wrote my car off still. Had to replace the whole back end and I had whiplash from it so a sore neck n shoulders for a few days. It wasn't too bad but scared me off driving for a while. Insurance covered the damage tho.

Answer

Yes, when I was 9 my mom was driving me from basketball practice to Girl Scouts and we were hit head on on a busy highway, the car who hit us crossed from the far lane of opposing traffic, over the median, into our lane and back into the median where she hit my mom who was trying to avoid it. Thankfully no one was seriously hurt but I was eating spaghetti in the car and the impact from the air bag caused the fork to chip my tooth. I would freak out any time we drove that stretch of road for about 4 more years.

A big much of them! Lol! I’ve crashed like 8 times I think. Lady one was a few years ago. I totaled my car. I highly recommend gap insurance!

Answer

Got tboned while 7 months pregnant with my first. On my birthday 🙃
The car was totalled, but thankfully we were fine other than being super sore and bruised up.

Answer

Just got into one in October. A truck rear ended us and managed to dent the car, break most of the glass from the windows, and give us two flat tires. There was 4 people in the car and luckily none of us were injured. Pretty traumatizing nonetheless.
