Transportation: Today, I woke up to the sound of a Suburban crashing through...

Today, I woke up to the sound of a Suburban crashing through my fence and striking the tree in my front yard. After filling out the police report, the driver repeatedly asked me to give him a lift to work. He seemed confused by my speechlessness. FML

Today, I totaled my car, because I mistook the leaves blowing across the road for a child. I swerved and hit a tree. The home owner wants to sue for "harming his tree" and hospital wants to test my mental stability. FML

Today, I was driving home when a guy crashed into me from behind. I got out of my car and told him that I was going to call the cops. He then asked me if we could move to a corner because we were blocking the way, so we then got back in to move. I looked in the mirror to see him driving off. FML

Today, I woke up to find the entire driver's side of my car wrecked. Front door, back door, front and rear bumper smashed to shit. A drunk driver had hit it the previous night and ran. Don't worry though, he stopped and left his insurance information. He keyed it into the undamaged side of my car. FML

Today, I got into a car accident. The guy wouldn't give me his information, but instead stood there saying, "Like a good neighbor, Statefarm is there." FML

Today, I was driving around my campsite at dark in the middle of a forest. My father thought it would be funny to run up to my window, put his face against the glass and scream. I drove into a tree. FML

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

Today, I saw a bad car wreck. I pulled over and ran to the car to find an unconscious man behind the wheel. Another car pulled up, and a guy got out. I was relieved to have help, until, to my horror, he started trying to hit on me. I was stuck with him until the ambulance arrived. 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

Today, while driving into work, a guy cut me off and I yelled some nasty things out of my window at him. He heard me, followed me to work, took a baseball bat out and then chased me into the office. He also smashed my windshield on his way out. FML

Easy mistake

By NoFightResponse - 24/04/2009 03:53 - United States

Today, I parked my car on the street late at night, when I was distracted by a text message. Some guy then gets in my passenger side. Panicked, thinking I was being robbed, I bolt out of my car bruising my head and dropping my phone onto the pavement. The guy meant to get in the car behind me. FML

well honestly its not like he said 'hm today i'm going to ruin my wonderful car and crash it into someones fence' it was obviously an accident, and i'm sure he was distressed about the whole situation and needed to get to work so he either doesn't loose his job, or gets paid for that day, whilst keeping in mind he needs to pay for the damages and the car etc.

For all those saying that OP should have just given him a ride, you probably wouldn't be saying that if someone almost plowed into your home. She got lucky that the tree stopped him, and still has to deal with the damage he caused. Accident or not, it was very impertinent of him to even ask. One word: taxi.

Wow, an accident doesn't mean anything. If it's the middle of the night, just means he has a night job.

The guy was probably shocked and confused himself. You don't plow through someone's fence and think straight afterwards. After an accident it's normal to react by having your mind firmly set on getting to your original destination as fast as possible by any means possible. EMTs tell stories all the time of badly injured crash victims insisting on being taken by ambulance to pick up their children or shop for groceries. I'm not saying the OP should've given him the ride at all, I'm just saying the driver's request was understandable and probably not due to rational thinking on his part.
