Yeah I drive! Never crashed my car before, but does almost running people over count?
I've been in a car crash where I wasn't driving. It was back when I was 10 and my mum was driving me to school. I sat up front and didn't put my seatbelt on. And when my mum crashed into someone else’s car and BANG! My head hit the screen and made a giant crack in it too. To my surprise I wasn't hurt but fainted because of the shock. LOL!

Yes, about eight or so minor crashes that were my fault and two write offs that were other peoples fault. This is over 20 years.No injuries to anyone, which is the important part. |

I've had one accident in my whole driving-life, when I was 21 years old. No one was hurt, but there was property damage, it was my fault and I didn't have insurance. Lesson learned. It's now been 28 years since and I haven't had another accident YET, but I ALWAYS have insurance. |

Yes, a roundabout kerb jumped out at me. I've also had my car rear ended on four occasions through no fault of my own. |

Yes, I do drive and yes, I have crashed. In all instances, I have been very lucky. My 1st crash was my fault all the way: I made a U-turn w/o looking to see if cars were coming, my 2nd crash was also my fault: blew right through a STOP sign and clipped a U.S. Mail jeep and made him spin 3 times.
The remainder of my crashes have been in NYPD vehicle's and were not my fault. My 1st was on a 2-wheel scooter, a woman made a left turn in front of me and I hit the rear quarter panel (she was ticketed and found guilty), my 2nd was again on a 2-wheel scooter, a garbage truck had spilled come liquid into the roadway, I skidded and went down (walked away from "road rash" only). My 3rd accident was in a car, I was in the process of doing an emergency escort, when I applied brakes, the master brake cylinder failed and I spun out 180 degrees into a parked van and my last accident was on a Highway Patrol motorcycle, after completing a dignitary escort, I struck 2 patches of "black ice". I was able to maintain control after hitting the 1st patch, but the 2nd patch caused me to lose control and be dropped & dragged and then I rolled 6 times on a major highway in NYC. |

Yes and yes. Surprising how few people will admit to it being their fault isn't it. My crashes have always been do to either tiredness or plain lack of attention. |

Yes and yes. Had 3 crashes first one 30odd years ago which was my fault, too much sun, not enough concentration. Luckily no-one was hurt. Second one 20 years ago, hit head on by drunk driver, he ran away even though the engine landed on his seat, polic reckoned he must have jumped before he hit me. I got broken neck which has caused problems ever since to the point where I'm disabled now, he got a £175 fine! Oh he had no insurance, tax or driving licence either.
3rd time 18 months ago a young woman came out of a side road straight into the side of my car. I was furious at the time but soon calmed down and felt sorry for her, it was a momentary lapse in concentration, just one of those things.
Still love driving though. |

I came off the road 2 years ago when I swerved to miss a driver who was coming round a bend on the wrong side of the road. I hit a wall and a tree and ended up in a ditch. Somehow I was uninjured. My poor precious car was a right off. The other driver drove off, but the police caught him about an hour later he was 3x over the drink drive limit. This was at 8.30 in the morning. |

I Drive! Drove daily for over 35 years, and no accidents. Just got tired of the expense of a car these days and recently got rid of it. I love to drive, but hate the cost and feel it is bad for the environment. Still may get a car again, one day. Have not ruled it out. |

Yes, I drive. Yes, I have crashed, I have always avoided being at fault, the 17 accidents in which I was involved were always the error of the other driver. Five different ones were so enthralled with the beauty of my red car they ran right into it when I was stopped at red lights. So I sold that car. Others ran red lights, or ignored stop signs and came out of side roads and ran right onto me! So far, I have survived, some of my cars didn't. |
