Just to see if anyone isn't as dumb as me.
At my 24 years, my car accidents can't be counted with the hands.

In a chrysler shadow: vs. a 70 mustang, vs a dodge dart 74, 91 golf, and... i think one more. Total= 4

Chrysler spirit rt: vs a jetta 92, nissan pickup, ford cougar 93, and maybe one more (almost sure). Total= 4

stratus rt: vs a very famous in mexico, "microbus" (a delivery van, just like the big ups trucks, but has spece for passangers), vs 10 ton truck, and the most painful one, vs a bridge barrier. Total= 3

if u want to tell your total number of car accidents where you were the driver, or even stories.

thanks, and u can tell me i'm a little stupid

The only accident I ever had was an F-350 rear-ending me in a really bad rain storm. (totalled the backhalf of my old SVT Focus :cry: )

BTW: it's a Mercury Cougar not Ford (that's the Thunderbird)

duh!

thanks for the info, i totally forgot it. It's a regular mistake here in my country, ppl tend to cut the names, and this mistake is because ford made publicity saying: Ford Mercury Cougar

ppl these days don't relate sub-divisions os markees from manufactures, so they continue to say chrysler jeep, ford lincoln ls, etc

Did some high-speed lawn mowing once. Spun out once too. That's about it -- no damage so far. (Knock on wood.)

My brother's had a dozen or so accidents, though. Crashed my old car twice in one month, both times rear-ending someone. Still a bit of a sore spot. He's not allowed to drive my car anymore.

Uhm, only a small one when I was still a Peugeot 106 driver ;)

I was in the army back then, I had a VERY long day, from 6 am to 3.30 am then I was free to go home for a 4 days week end.. I was so happy and so tired.. it was raining and I hit the brakes to late on a 90 degrees corner with very "smooth" tarmac.. went straight, the road was narrow and I clipped the curbstone, with the right wheel... of course the geometry of the front end was gone...

Had a customer driving me in my work car, left the road at 130km/h (80mph) and went backwards into a concrete wall, AUD$10k worth of damage, had a sore neck the next day and that was it.

Not counting on the race track. 2x.
1: mechanical failure. The wheel fell off my car(rusted studs)
2: blew a tire on my last car(grand prix) in the rain on the highway. Put her in a ditch in the resulting spin.

Other then that Had a few minor incidents back when I first got my license(those amounted to sum total damage of a dent and a broke tailight when some girl backed into me while i was parked in a parking lot).

only 2.... (well that is alot since im only 18)

contour svt ran a speedbump at 60. ripped off a whole lot of shit and messed up the engine. i think it cost 6k to fix if im not wrong.

drove a van lumina smack down the middle of a huge tree at around 50. those vans have a big space in between the bumper and the engine cause it was all fucked up but it didnt hit the engine at all
