Whats the scariest thing that happened with you and your Celica? Options

Well, nothing real scary...but perhaps my car is a magnet for being rear-ended at less than five MPH.



You can't see it well, but that line right above the bumper crease is the gist of it. Kid in a 2002 Mustang hit the gas when he thought I was making a right into traffic, while I was only barely beginning to, basically just inching along waiting to cross three lanes. Police deemed it was his fault, and I'm hoping his insurance pays for it. If not, I'll have a pretty messed up bumper since another guy did the same thing to me about half a year ago and spider-webbed the hell out of the left bumper corner. I've also hit a trash can in my driveway (it was laying down, couldn't see it in my rear view mirror). So yeah, a resprayed bumper would be quite nice.

Coming from taco bell,7pm at night...putting the BIGASS cup into the gay ass celi cup holders...look down for a second, look up and a camry is MASHING on the brakes,i slam on the brakes and i fly forward and my coke soaks my ****ing console...i hit him going fairly fast(we hit hard) and i think "o **** my front end is THROUGH"...i get out and this old ass redneck starts cussing at me"you weren't ****ing watching blah blah blah this is all your f**ing fault,ur paying for all the damage"BEFORE he even looked at the cars.We both look and there is NOTHING,my bumper and his just flexed like hell and he had a little scratch where my license plate bolt was...Then the guy behind me was a off duty cop(he said) and told the redneck it wasn't my fault..Turns out a pedestrian just ran out in the middle of a 4 lane road and the camry had to brake to not hit him..Anyway...the feeling of me and my GF flying forward was scary as hell( i had to go to a smartstart program where they showed me hours of Gorey teen accidents) so i was a bit shaken up thats my most recent story

I finally took my bumper off.....-_- aftermath:

Are you lowering? I see a strut laying there.

And I have a new scariest thing: I didn't hit the corner of a highway on-ramp correctly when I was chasing Samir on the cruise. As a result, my ass end started sliding out. Scariest & most fun experience in my car, hands down.

ok, so i'm driving in town last year when the s.u.v. in front of me pulls off to the right, no big deal she is way down the road and i figure she is parking and keep on my merry way, the road is wide enough to pass so i don't even lift off the gas (doing about 45 mph) unfortunatly she is not parking but pullin over to pull an illegal u-turn, as its two late to avoid her i just hit the brakes and hope for the best. the scary thing was, as i am about to hit her and i know there is nothing i can do i see she has a young girl in the back seat looking at me...... no-one was hurt and luckily for me she had good insurance so i got my baby fixed right up. here are some pics,
