Rolled my rover being fifty yards down a hillside a few years back, completely crushed but walked away without a scratch.
A noble end to my rover bling. :D

Unbelievable I have been involved in another car crash this time twas on the way to Dublin and again someone ran into the back of my car.
Luckily for me and the car not a scratch on either of us but the guy behind me got his boot driven in by the car behind him.
Why oh why do people drive too close behind you on a wet day??
The same reason they clean the toaster with a metal knife. Sorry to hear about your streak of bad luck. I have a few middle aged friends who, after being in several car accidents (one with perma injuries from it), have all sworn off car ownerships and relocated to cities with good mass transit systems. I have often flirted with this idea
To be honest I was as lucky as a black cat because truthfully I had only taxed the car that morning and it would have been so easy to say "ah I will chance it and pay it next week".Quote:

Glad to here you're ok.
I have had more accidents than I care to list :P My highlight has to be being rear-ended by a logging truck on my motorcycle; highway accident too. No injuries, and he happily paid all repairs/expenses; good thing too, it took weeks to get the parts needed.
On the upside, being stuck for weeks in a beach community during the height of summer isn't all bad :)
never been in one as the driver, though I've been in a couple as a passenger.
luckily, in neither case was it serious: fender-benders.
just think of it this way Gaelic cowboy: she ran into you, and you didn't into her. So in a just world, she has to pay, not you.
Just slid off the road there this morning at about twenty to eight on the way to work.
I am ok and prob the car just needs pulling out of the field it's in.
Best guess is that as I was going round a turn I hit a bump/depression in road and lost control.
There were no marks on the road so I wasnt going to fast (thankfully) but I did get a nice fright (an a new bill to pay)
I am never using that road again to go to work
Glad you are ok
Glad to hear you are ok. I have to admit, since I no longer drive for a living I can't justify the expense; no longer get to deduct depreciation, fuel, maintenance and insurance can just get insane.
As per the above, my rover bling after it rolled twice:

Ending up about 50 meters away from the road:
