I'm such an idiot

[lauranicole91]

I just rear ended someone on my way to work. Same location as the last time I rear ended someone back in December 2011.

Coming off the highway you can turn right on red. I thought the car in front of me went so I started looking at on coming traffic for my chance to go. When I saw a clear opening I went. But the car in front of me was still there. Fuck my life.

My car is a tank thankfully but there poor little versa took quite the beating for just a little bump. Took out their left light and bent their bumper in a bunch.

And stupid me still hasn't replaced on my belongings into my car since it got all that work done. So now Wes is on his way up to give me my insurance paperwork that's supposed to be in my car.

And of course now my insurance will go up. My last wreck still isn't even off record yet.

The people I hit are super pissed and giving me the evil eye like crazy while we sit and wait.

Ugh that sucks. Don't be mad at yourself, that is why it's called an "accident", not an "on purpose".

Also, download the geico app and put all of the accident details in (you don't need to have geico to use it). It is nice to have all the info just in case.

Ugh I'm sorry. Don't beat youself up too much, accidents happen.

You're not 25 yet, right? I think insurancw rates go down at 25 so maybe you can at least look forward to that

[lauranicole91]

While sitting here waiting I've seen too people drive by with FF infant bucket car seats. Wtf?

Yeah. I only turn 23 in march so I've got a while. Hopefully after 25 I'll be free of accidents on record and have my rates go down.

Sorry! That sucks. I have almost done that several times

[jfh]

I'm so sorry to hear that! That's really lame that they're giving you the evil eye - I'm sure you're already shaken up. You obviously didn't mean to hit them. Hope our insurance doesn't go up too much.

I've done that! Just wanted you to know you aren't the only one! I was so annoyed, because the person in front of me clearly missed many opportunities to GO! .

Most of us have been in accidents (I've had three, ahem.) They suck ass and I'm sorry.

that sucks! I'm sorry it ruined your day but don't be too upset, it's an accident for a reason

Mistakes happen. I love that you are on here updating while you wait.

[robinsparkles430]

I'm sorry   Glad you are ok though!

[browneyedhunni85]

DH did that to someone while we were dating. Luckily there was no damage and they didn't want to file a report. I'm sorry this happened to you. Accidents are such a pain.

I was thinking the same thing.

So get this. The person I hit lives in my apt complex. Like the next building over....awkward.

Eeeesh. That's super awkward. Sorry about the accident. =( I got into an accident about 2.5 years ago and I can't wait for it to fall off my record. I was going like 15 MPH and was braking for a light and hit ice. The guy treated me like I was doing the grand prix or some shit.

Weird. My accidents fall off after 2 years. I wonder why yours hasn't dropped.

Bummer! Almost there!!

[charmediamsure]

Oh nooooo. I'm sorry.

A few years so when I was a uni student I rear ended someone. She was stopped at a stop sign on campus and I was behind. She started to go and I went to advance but she slammed on her brakes. It was raining and I tried to stop quickly but I tapped her bumper. TAPPED. Like there was zero damage. The first thing she said to me was "so how do you want to handle this? Do you want to write me a check?" I was like "I'm a student, I don't have any money". I was hysterically crying at this point. So we called our insurance companies. Remember, there was no damage whatsoever. Well, come to find out, she claimed bodily injury. She said I gave her whiplash. Honest to goodness. She claimed to need to go to a chiropractor etc. Ridiculous. I found out from my insurance company that this was her 15th claim in 3 years, and it seems like she is one of those people who looks for accidents for the compensation. What a complete CROOK. My rate still went up though.

Hugs to you. I now i was a complete mess when it happened to me. But accidents happen. I hope your rate doesn't go up too much.

That is fucking ridiculous!!! Wow!

I was behind this reeeeally nice sports car one day at a stop light when all of a sudden he put his car in reverse and started inching towards my car. I went in reverse myself(luckily no one behind me!) to avoid getting bumped. Then the light turned green and he sped off. People are crazy!

[laurack]

This happened to my husband before. Even though he wa technically in the wrong he was pissed because they had opportunity to go and started to move then stopped. There was no damage thankfully but the evil eye we were getting!
