I crashed my car around 1 year ago. I think my mother was very disappointed too but after that I become more careful while driving and never crashed again. Now she is cool :D
It took a while to gain her trust again, whenever I wanted to go out she asked me to call her when I arrived :| (how annoying is that ? )
but now she acts normal.
Be more careful next time.
when they see you are driving carefully, they slowly start trusting you again. ;) |

Hey Leah

I've seen this happen before, although it's your fault for tailgating.
Why don't you try to help your parents pay off the 1K in damages? Plus, if you're on their insurance (and even if not) it's gonna skyrocket.
Aside from help them pay it off and learn to stop riding people's bumpers, there isn't much you can do now. |

I'm not gonna sit here and tell you mean things.. but next time you get behind the wheel of a car.. REMEMBER THE 3 SECOND RULE!! I ALWAYS stay a good 2-3 car distance away from from the car ahead of me.. and it's actually saved my life! I was able to slam on my breaks and have enough room to avoid getting in a horrible pile up on the 405 fwy! Life's tough... but just learn from this mistake. $1000 isn't bad... it could be a lot worse! |

i was in three wrecks in the month of october two in the last week, none of which were my fault. but i will say that one of the kids that hit me is a really good friend of mine and he paid all the expenses himself ie both insurances, by doing this it will show your parents that you know it was a mistake and that you will be a much more careful driver also make it as easy as possible on the person you hit when people had their insurance people call me within the week it made everything go so much smoother...if you have to go to court being on good terms with the person you hit helps a lot the one time i actually had to go to court for my wreck i didnt want the guy that hit me to get in trouble so i was very sympathetic towards him and all he got was dip class i definitely think i was nice because he dealt with it very swiftly and he was very apologetic at the initial scene. |

If you want to help pay to fix it, get a job or have a small garage sale. Things like this happen, you know. This past Tuesday somebody stole my iPod Touch and my parents were disappointed too. The best thing to do is to just let it go and move on. It's one of life's many lessons. What's done is done. |

Get a job to pay for the damages and while you are on that, save up to pay for insurance out of your pocket. It'll show a sense of responsibility, you could also start ridding a bike more often. |

Don't beat yourself up, accidents happen, that's why they are called accidents. You may feel alright now but you should see a Doctor tomorrow to be sure, sometimes the pain does not set in until the following day. (Personal experience). I hope you apologized to your parents. Once you get the OK from the Doctor you should get a job and pay your parents back for the repairs. |

Keep your eyes on the road.. and your insurance is going to go way up too, it's going to cost you much for than 1000. |

They should be understanding about it because it's not your fault... I think anyone's been in your shoes at one point of their lives...The good thing is that your safe and you didn't get hurt. The bad news sounds like you got some damages to pay for and your parents are disappointed in you. Good grief...I hate that feeling...worst feeling in the world! Up the insurance on your car so if-god forbid it happens again you won't ahve to pay an arm and a leg for damages. As for your parents...they might be dispointed but they will forget about it...they probably went from being scared to the next emotion kind of thing. It's a common factor of that kind of situation.... |

My first question to you is...are you sure you're ok!? If so, I'm glad you're not hurt. Be thankful. It could have been a lot worse.
What you can do is just learn from your mistake. We've all been in car accidents where it was our fault, and what did we do about it? we learned to not follow closely, be more aware of other drivers, checking blind spots when changing lanes, etc etc.
If you have a job, you can tell your parents you will pay them back eventually.
Good luck.
Don't beat yourself up about it. |

it's called an accident for a reason. it's not like you set out to hit him. you're parents are dissappointed as this is usually a completely avoidable accident, however it is also the most common. you can offer to pay your parents the dedcutible and the amount of money your rate increase will be. Other than that just give them time. time really heals all wounds...
as far as the hahahahahahhahaahha guy, harsh man!!!!!! really, really harsh!!!!! and worst of all, you got two points!!!!!!! |

Well did you guys trade insurance information? Cause he's probably gonna report it to his and your insurance company. SO you should probably call your insurance company. Your Premium will go up. |

dont follow so close next time! other than that, take it like a man. admit that you messed up, accept the consequences with your parents, offer to help with the cost if your parents are paying for it, and learn from your mistake.

There is nothing you can do, you just crashed the car. How about making some extra money? Like... Be a waiter or... put on a funny hat and drive an undersized car around a circus ring. JUST DONT CRASH IT. |

you should stop tailgating people. but other than that take a defensive driving course. |
