11/4/2011 - Date of my first Accident

Rate this Entry
So today I went to Family Video to pick up Crazy Stupid Love, and as soon as I got into my car, I had to wait for the lady in the white car to move so I can back up. She did. Then I backed out and right as I shifted into Drive, some reckless driver hits me! Freaked out, and without a clue of what happened as I remember looking out my review mirror to ensure that I was in the clear. So I look over, and a fricken car was right in the next parking spot next to the one I just came out of!

I walk out, inspect the damage, nothing but scratches for both cars, and demand to know whether or not the female driver saw me - now remember, I was pulled far out, and ready to drive off by the time she hit me. She says, "No, I never saw you! I didn't know you were there." I was irritated. Then her boyfriend steps out of the passenger seat, runs into the store (I assume he was trying to get a witness, thank God there are cameras), and comes back out demanding to know if I had Insurance, and then proceeded to demand which company. Ignoring him, I called the cops and informed them that I was in an accident, ect. Then called one of my parents so they where aware of what just happened.

He gets upset and starts talking to her. "She hit US." Is all I heard, it was all I needed to hear in order to know what they would do. Nice to know that the people who just hit me are prepared to turn against me.

So the cop came, wrote the report, and informed us to contact our insurance companies about the accident (this occurred on private property, btw).

Interestingly enough, after all of his talk about how I hit them, he later mentions that he was asleep when it happened. <---- DING DING

The driver didn't say much. She seemed apologetic up until her boyfriend insisted that I hit her. *Shrugs*

So yeah.. First accident since I got my drivers license; absolutely interesting but still aggravating. She must have been speeding because I didn't see her as I was pulling out, and when I was prepared to drive off, she hits me. She even admits that she didn't see me even though I was in plain sight.

At least I made it out ok. No more accidents please; one was enough.

    Sucks dude. The same thing almost happened to me yesterday. So when you're in a parking lot and you SEE a car backing up you wait and stop for them right? Wrong apparently. I was backing up looking all around me and I was mostly out, and then a van whips around the corner and then pauses when she sees me. I see her, she sees me and so I start to finish backing up. She then pulls up and cuts me off. I threw my hands up and then she PARKED behind me and rolled down her window and started yelling at ME. What the heck dude?

    People are jerks. Sorry about your encounter.

    I know how you feel. Accidents suck. I've had a few of my own, but only one was reported as I totaled my car and almost died in that wreck. I was going 45 MPH and a car yieled from the right side and I never saw him coming!

    Happens all the time, nobody wants to take responsibility for an accident because it means points on their license/insurance goes up/maybe their car doesn't get fixed. I'm a new driver too, so anxious and nervous about my first possible accident, it's killing me, I feel like I'm waiting for it, like it's a ticking time bomb without a number count. Or like the number count is biggest loser style One moment an accident is due to happen in days, the next moment it's a year, the next moment 5 SECONDS, just kidding, 2 months!

    XD I've been extra cautious because of this. It's scary knowing, as a new driver, you'll definitely be in an accident at some point.
