Transportation: Today, I received a call from the police about a car accident...

Today, I received a call from the police about a car accident that I was a witness to. As the only witness who stopped to help, I was remembered by the other cars involved. They're blaming me for the accident. The cops want to talk. FML

Today, I got called out of class to talk to some cops. Turns out my car was involved in a hit and run accident, while I was in school and there was no possible way it could have been me. But since they have no one else, it's my fault. FML

Today, a car hit me. I didn't get hurt, but someone called 911. The old woman who had hit me got out of the car with no problem to look at me, and gets back into the car. When the police arrive, she pulls out crutches and said I made strange faces and made her hit me. I got blamed. FML

Today, I crashed my car while racing backwards, so told my parents I was rear-ended. They made me call the police and file a report. I hope there were no cameras. FML

It wasn't me

Today, I got a call from the police informing me that my car was involved in an accident outside my house. At least I can prove I was in another continent when it happened. FML

Today, I was involved in a car accident. I wasn't the driver of either car. I happened to be a passerby that was hit by a falling stop sign as a car hit it. FML

Today, I got into a car accident. The other driver was going so fast that when we hit, our cars positioned themselves to make it look like it was all my fault. He keeps blaming me for everything and the position of the cars doesn't help. FML

Adding insult to injury

Today, I got into an accident and my car was totaled. My friends then took me out to a bar for a drink to make me feel better. It appears that the police officer I'd spoken to had kept my I.D. by mistake and I couldn't get into the bar. FML

Today, after rolling my car on the highway, I witnessed several people stop and get out of their cars to take pictures. No one asked if I was okay, and I was the one who had to call 911 for myself. FML

Today, I was approached by a policeman who asked me if I was the owner of the green Camry. Turns out my parents decided to teach me a lesson for lying where I had been by reporting the car stolen. They also wouldn't answer my one phone call. FML

Nice neighborhood

Today, I awoke to the sound of my neighbors attacking my car with a baseball bat accusing me of calling the cops on them. I did call the cops on them, after they screamed at me last night, drunkenly, to call the cops for them because they thought they were being robbed. FML

Unless you were throwing rocks at people's convertibles, you should be fine.

No wonder people don't want to help anymore.

More than 1 car involved, the drivers would blame each other if one of them was the cause. Seeing as they both blame you, it probably was your fault, whether you were actually a part of the wreck or not.

nah, bro, things ain't that simple. you did more than assume -- you leaped over a grand canyon-sized precipice of presumption. also, your comment implies that people are not supposed to help others who may be in trouble, which could also be looked upon somewhat disparagingly. |the kid|

Stopping to help clears up all your issues, even if it's your word against theirs. Good Samaritan law covers your ass.

Good Samaritan laws are currently only in Vermont and Minnesota. They WOULD protect someone like the OP... but it says he lives in Iowa... :/

You are wrong. There is almost no state left that doesn't have it's own version of the Good Samaritan laws. I know that Iowa does have those laws.

How'd they get your name and number? You weren't so foolish as to STEP FORWARD as a witness, or try to help, were you? That never ends well.

I stopped recently to help someone who had turned over in a drainage ditch. when the police got there they went through the basic questions with the girl, including asking if she had been driving when the accident occurred. this dumb bitch had the nerve to say no, and told the police that I wrecked her car. I feel you pain, op.1
