Today, I narrowly avoided a head-on collision in the parking garage. The other driver cussed me out. It's a one-way route through the parking garage, and I was going the right way. FML

Today, I was pulling into a parking garage space and using the next car over to judge where the wall was in front of me, but ended up whumping my front bumper as I pulled forward. Wondering what had happened, I got out to see that the car I was aligning myself against had hit the wall too. FML

Today, I was driving around a parking lot, looking for an empty spot. Someone was backing out a bit too quickly as I was about to pass by, so I honked to announce myself. The driver instead panicked and reversed into my front bumper. FML

Today, I got to my underground parking garage at work and saw my boss pulling into a spot. I thought I would show him my reverse parking skills and decided to park beside him. As I was pulling in he opened his door to get out and I smashed into it, nearly running him over. FML

Today, I tried to back out of a spot in a parking garage. I did a 12 point turn, hit the car behind me and still didn't manage to get out of the spot. Everyone was staring at me, and the attendant had to come over and move my car for me. I have to park there every day. FML

Today, I decided to be a good driver and not run through the yellow light. As soon as I stopped my car another came and rear-ended me. The guy told me to go in the parking lot so we can exchange information. So I drove into the parking lot, I turned my head and watched him drive away. FML

Bystander

Today, I was walking from my office to the place I had parked my car, a distance of approximately three blocks. As I was about to round the last corner, I was forced to dive out of the way of a speeding car. When I looked up, I noticed that it was my car. FML

Today, I was driving in stop and go traffic and passed two accidents in the process. I got nervous and decided to change routes to avoid getting hit. As I was trying to find an alternative route on my GPS, I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Today, while driving, I got a call on my cell phone. Trying to be safe and avoid an accident, I pulled into the nearest parking lot before answering. While I was turning in to park, someone rear-ended me. FML

Today, I was leaving Wal-Mart with my daughter when a man was speeding the wrong way in the parking lot. To avoid getting hit, I pulled over to the side. He thought I was going the wrong way. He got out cursing and screaming and punched a dent in my hood. FML

In those situations the driver is often a little mentally unhinged so you're best off just not reacting and getting out of there... Yelling back at people like that could make them completely explode on you and may they may be dangerous.

YDI for eating the last piece of pie in the tray when your great grandfather needed it to live.

There's a joke in my country about this. A guy comes abroad to Germany and enters to drive on a highway. As he drives there's a lot of people driving toward him, and he barelly misses to crash in them. He turns on the radio and hears the reporter speaking on current news, saying: ''Watch out, there's a driver going in the wrong direction on the main highway!'', to what he mumbles to himself: ''There's not one idiot but dozens of them!''

that's why I drive vehicles that don't cost much, I would have given him a nice bumper tap. with my 1" thick rout iron bumper and then called the cops. his cars in ruins and he gets the ticket for going the wrong way down a one way.. a double winner.

The world of irrational behaviour still intrigues me.

Something similar happend to me , except it was a one way street , these two girls were in a car driving towards me (me going the correct way) they kept driving towards me so i had to drive up into someones back yard so i wouldnt hit them head on and the b*tch in the car had the audacity to honk her horn at me and stick her finger up angrily ??
