i had several close calls, but when you're going through an intersection and only have .035 seconds to respond....something is going to break.

I was in my first accident a little over 8 years after I got my license. But it's not my fault that the deer wanted to commit suicide. h:

My first accident I was a senior in high school when a farm truck carrying a couple cattle hit me in the rearend and totaled my 1959 Opel Rekord. I had my license for about a year and half.

My last accident was a couple weeks ago in my 1989 325i, a lady hit me in the side and took off. Dented the driver's door and front fender.

This has got to be the biggest Bachi thread ever!!!!!
anyway, i have rear ended people twice, and been rear ended 3 times. also got side swiped once. the 2 that were my fault happened realtively soon after getting licensed. that is why i suggest getting newly licensed people crappy cars till they get experience .
oh, had a 1 car accident in my current car @ 1 month old,(spun out on an off ramp going way too fast)

and i got rear ended too a little later!

doesn't look like much, but was almost 2800 in damage, mainly underbody:


but it's all good now!

About a year or so afterwards, I was in my old '95 Pathfinder, I was behind this lady at a parking lot area, where everybody pulls in. She pulled right and "parked" next to a long median, and I sat behind her, waiting on her to go, but she just sat there for like 3-5 minutes. Since I was going to meet a friend so we could go play tennis, I went around her. Well at the time I got to her front end, she jumps and turns left right into my rear quarter panel. She told the cop I was doing 60 mph by the time she turned into me. The cop was cool and didn't give the ticket to anybody.

Then a few months ago, I was in a little accident at work. I was delivering paint & supplies at the time. I was a stop light, the light turned green, I went straight and a bitch coming from the right ran her stop light and I t-boned her. Totalled the company Explorer.

Then about a month or 2 after that, I rear ended somebody b/c the company S10's brakes suck ass the 2 people in front of me slammed they're brakes so the first guy could pull into KFC. (I got fired for that accident).

I don't know if this would be an accident or not, but back in April my buddy TehJustin and I were coming back from Hickory and he ran over a recap that he didn't see and threw it on my car, causing about $1,800 damage to the Integra. But I got a CF hood and a new paint job from it.
