Rolled my 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3 times in one crash.

Physical injuries: walked away with minor scratches.

Kudos to Jeep for making such a strong piece of equipment, and seatbelts.

I was 5 or 6. Dad and my brother were up front. A lady in the other lane had taken medicine and fell asleep.

Hit head on at fifty, totaled both cars. Dad broke his nose and hurt his hand, Josh got cut by the seatbelt, I had rug burn on the whole left side of my face. (People called me Two-Face for awhile :lol: )

I haven't been in a car crash... yet. Knock on wood.
However, I have seen several car crashes happen before my eyes.

Not exactly. My school bus used to always slide in the snow, and we hit quite a few snowbanks, but that was with the old bus, so it didn't really matter as much. Once we got the new one, it mysteriously stopped.

Other than that, I haven't been in any accidents.

I have been in a car crash. After the car accident I was sceaming and asking about where we were going to live. My 2 year old brother kept saying "Do it again" and he was laughing. My baby sister slept right threw it. I don't remeber how old the driver was (he was like between 50 and 90 I think)

I've only been in two. The first one, a minor one, was caused by an idiot who suddenly put his brakes on. My mum either had to go into the back of him or crash into the side of the road. She chose to crash into the side of the road. No big injuries. The second one was with my dad and brother and a motorcyclist and learner driver suddenly decided that they could cut in front of us, but then the car went into the car side at great speed and we rolled over at least 5 times. I only had a few cuts and scars from the broken glass, my dad only had a sprained jaw from hitting the wheel and my brother had blood all over his face! jawdropper.gif

Only once... although I wasn't driving when it happened. I was in the back seat of this old pickup truck, and it was trying to pull into a driveway on the side of some highway, and it couldn't make the turn, so we had to back out, and try again, but then a semi tractor-trailer came so the driver pulled forward, went into a ditch, but the semi still hit us. My forehead hit the area just above the door, as I was transfixed to watching the semi as it came at us... Needless to say, I screamed out the F word very loudly, and I was bleeding profusely. The truck driver, who had managed to get his truck to a stop (after hitting us, of course) came over and got a wet washcloth or something on my forehead.

After some time, not sure how long, two ambulances came and I got into one of them. They put a few band-aids on my forehead where it was bleeding, and they asked me if I remembered anything, and had me try to call my parents (it was, about 1 AM, so they didn't pick up the phone) and I told them I felt mostly fine. Shaken up and a bit dizzy, but fine. So, I didn't go to the hospital or anything, but I now have this scar on my forehead from it. Of course, the pickup truck was totaled; bent frame, bent rear axle, and right rear fender ripped off. I only recall seeing the semi with a chip in the metal somewhere, and some long skidmarks.

Ironically, it was probably the only time in my life when I didn't have my seatbelt on... but that was only because there was something in the back seat that prevented me from being able to put it on.

Haven't been in one yet. My family has, nothing serious, my dad is a really good driver so hes very careful about these things. I have seen car crashes though. One time I was at the park and heard a loud bang, these two cars had hit each other and went flying in two different directions, one skidded to a stop but the other crashed into a small brick wall. Very loud noise from that and crumbling bricks. It sounded like thunder when the cars hit each other. Luckily no one was seriously hurt, some bruises and cuts but nothing major.
