Do you have any crazy story's of accident that happened involving you or not? No death story's please, just wana hear what y'all have seen/ been through.. Pics are good

Here's mine:

Today on the way home a wreck happened right in front of me. A car goin like 45 hit this SUV and literally threw it in the air and it did 360's before slamming and falling into a ditch. I was right there so I ran and helped the guy and called the police. It was pretty bad, the guy passed out while I was there helping him and was taken away in an ambulance. I hope he's alright... The cop that came to the scene took down my name and asked me "is that your Jeep parked over there?" that's a nice jeep man. Lol

Some guy pulled out in front of me while I was going downhill, hit me on the passenger side pushing the while right side back a few inches and putting a series of waves in my hood, which in turn ripped his whole bumper off. my seat belt broke as I went forward, needless to say my car was totaled and I was beyond mad. He had a new hyundai, I was in my '84 firebird.

My wife was t-boned by an f-250 doing around 60mph. Pushed her across 4 lanes of traffic and into a ditch. She shattered her pelvis, punctured a lung, and broke 3 ribs. They had to life flight her 500 miles to Seattle.

This is my friends Discovery 2. He hit a WK going about 15 mph. WK had a scratch and some dents, His land rover is a different story. He couldn't get full coverage insurance because it was on a salvage title when he bought it, he's gonna spend about the whole value of the vehicle getting it running and drivable

he got out of jail a year later.. its now 4 years later and he hasn't paid me one dime on the car. Insurance didnt' cover because he was drunk at the time of the wreck.

Driving one night in my 93' Taurus my best friend his cousin and I were driving home on a straight stretch of road and I wanted to see how quickly I could get it up to top speed (like 90 mph or so). It gets up there pretty fast btw. But when slowing down I hit a bump caught some air and locked up my brakes. Lost control when I hit the ground again, vehicle went sideways we were watching the oak trees passing in front of the car flew off the side of the road and amazingly the front tires must have hit the ground first, because somehow the car managed to flip around and the trunk hit the biggest tree.

We were extremely lucky because nobody was hurt at all, and all we had to do was change the back right tire and we all drove off.
This is after I banged out the dent a bit.

One day I was driving on a dirt road by my house when I saw a VW Golf come around a corner really hard. First I thought they were trying to drift, so I slowed down. They slid off the road right before a bridge down into a ditch at least 30 feet down. Landed on the roof half in the water. Both people inside walked out but the FD had to help them up since the walls were vertical sandstone

I was heading home one icy night about two years ago down a 2 lane (each way) road with a 55 mph speed limit. I'm about to go across a bridge. A suburban was coming the opposite direction and lost control on the bridge. There was about a 30 ft wide median between the two sides. The suburban missed the k rail and turned around 180 and slid up to the back of the metal guard rail. About 5 ft or so from the rail the tires bit and it started to roll. One of the rail supports slammed into the b pillar and kept it from going over. The passenger window got blown out. There was two people in it and if it had hit the support just 6" further the woman in the passenger seat would have been killed. I'm glad it didn't happen that way. Both walked away fine just shaken up.
Wish I had a picture

I don't care if it was your cousin. I would of taken him to small claims court (and You still can) for the damages. Although you might not of still gotten any money out him. The state would hold his driver's license until restitution is made. Which to me is worth the small claims fee!
