Experiences

The consequences after a car accident have all those who have experienced them. Although the injuries were not major trauma from the blow they linger forever. Listen to the stories of people who have had car accidents.

When I was 5, I was hit by a car that crossed the speed limit 10 times. He pushed me off his hood and I had the most realistic moment when I was hovering and everything was so slow… I landed on my tailbone and headed first to the sidewalk. I was lucky and I was fine – I think – but the guy who hit me was distraught. My mom, in response, beat me up and didn’t take me to the doctor. At 26, I still have problems with my spine and related tissues.

I drove through the Walmart parking lot with a cousin in the passenger seat and walked straight down the road that was intersected a few feet through the intersection. It wasn’t a straight hit, I had to go over the right bit to really go straight if it made sense. So I stop at my stop sign and that is a stop in 4 directions. I’m the only one at the intersection, but I see the lady on the right approaching her stop sign. I have the advantage, and I’m moving.

The lady decided to run and hit me. She pushed my car at 6 – 8 feet and my right tire was so pushed into the bodywork that it was total damage. She didn’t get a penalty though, because apparently the road leading from the Walmart parking lot where we were still considered “private property”.

What is worrying is that she recklessly drove with 2 or 3 small children in the car and made phone calls. I heard her scream and swear as if it was my fault, when she was the one who crossed the stop sign and hit ME.

It was early morning. I went to college, I had a class at 8:00. On the route, the street I use goes down the hill into the golf course and back to the other side. Tired and a little too relaxed because I drove that route almost every day. There is one thing you need to know about this road, people are constantly crashing EXACTLY where I had an accident.

Sometimes they hit trees, sometimes they just turn onto the macadam and scrape on the metal poles that protect the golf course. I was a little too close to the curb downhill and in half a second my car swerved to the right and I drove off the road and through a dry trough filled with rough stones. So, I crossed to the other side for a moment.

I immediately started hyperventilating, parked the car in the grass at the very edge of the track, and fell to the ground in a panic attack. My car was totally destroyed. Both tires on the side that caught the curb were torn, the mirrors on that side were nowhere to be found, my hood was torn to pieces. – Because I hit and bent one of the metal poles.

I was extremely lucky, I somehow ended up with my car between two trees, just big enough for my car. I felt like a really heavy blow, and all I had was a broken thumb from a terrified grab for a wheel and a wheel thrashing around crossing over rocks. The moral of the story is if you feel tired when you should slow down, check how close you are to a line or curb and try to stay safe.

My friend was driving at the time. We were riding on the highway when a cyclist suddenly crossed the road in front of us. It was a highway, so none of us expected that. He braked hard. When he tried to control the car, the tires squeaked.

The cyclist was unharmed, but the car went off the road. There was no fence, and the road was quite steep on both sides. We narrowly avoided serious injuries or damage to the car. Some people gathered and helped us push the car back onto the road and change the tire because it was punctured. Then we thanked everyone and very trembling headed back to town.

Every story from the accident is different. What you may notice are the causes that led to the accident. Try to learn from these stories and apply everything you’ve learned the next time you drive.
