had that many its hard to remember the first.

my worst was when i am back from birmingham for my 21st with some lads from work. i was a back seat passanger in my car cos i had been drinking.

they decided to take a short cut through chrisleton in chester, there is a really steap hump back bridge which you can go over at 10mph max, but he decided to hit it at 45mph and flipped the car head on into a corsa.

took 45mins for firbrigade to get us out.

you should go to christleton and look at the bridge its so tempting to jump.

First crash was on a 80cc Bike doing about 70mph at the sweet age of 16 omg . Not quite sure what i was going to do when i got there and oblivious to the fact it was a total write off mad

Next thing i was in an ambulance with my girlfriends mum (Where the hell did she come from ??) and straight into x-ray etc etc...

I managed to push myself out of the hospital in a wheel-chair later that day, no broken bones, just severe bruising and very very hurt pride....

Mine was in me 1st car a nova. On the lanes coming home frrom work from west kirby too meols following are very own maverick, wasn't racing either, think i must've hit a stone or something and being in-experinced i couldn't control it and ended up in a ditch and bush on the other side of the road. Car written off but some how driviable, I opted to somehow drive it home at 20mph with a deformed steering wheel, just didn't want police ands insurance involved as car was hardly worth it, took my alloys and zorst off it, oh and me neon washer jet lighjt lmao. I was ok, just a little shook up but if I woulda had a passenger they woulda been serious.

Ok guys if owen insists here is my first crash it the 1 that was not my fault.
Came of a really big roundabout in wolverhampton and headed down a 2lane each way main road.I was in right hand lane with no traffic ahead and the left lane was stationary all the way up to the lights.Then from behind a massive the front of a massive lorry a massive merc just flies out and starts turning up the road towards me.Didnt get far tho cos i was doin 30 and clips his back door spinning him about 80 degrees and destroying my bumper,bonnet and both wings.He got a puncture 1 shattered window and his rubstrip fell off.His repairs mustve cost {200 quid mine cost 3k on his insurance(sideskirts had to be torn off and renewed as they were bonded to wings) and ive only just recieved the £1050 compo for my whippy.

My first one was with my dad in his old Citroen BX, doing 60 along the dual carraigeway, a truck was overtaking us when some **** in an Uno pulled out of a lay-by directly in front of us. Of course there was no-where to go but straight into the back of him. The Uno was a write-off, and the BX had a cracked front indicator lens omg


My first one with me driving; I was on my own going along Brimstage road towards Clatterbridge to pick up some friends from spital. It was cold and it'd been sleeting, so the roads were very slippy. As I came out of Brimstage I slowed right down to 30mph to take the first sharp right hander, but the road was like a sea of ball bearings. Despite doing my best to pull out of the oversteer I ended up facing the other direction, sliding backwards at the same speed I'd started the bend! The back o/s wheel hit the kerb and the front slid round, up the kerb, and through the fence. Damage: Mangled front sub-frame, twisted front o/s wishbone, de-rimed front tyre, badly twisted front o/s wing, buckled rear o/s wheel. Cost to repair: £850.00 (not including new wheels) eek

10 years, not even a scratch (not remembering the time a I reversed out of the drive with the door open and ripped the door off the hinges).

My mate was in his Cav coming round a corner. A TR7 was coming the other way overtaking a truck. Cav hits the TR7 and goes over it because of wedge like shape, decapitates the driver, Cav flips over twice, rolls a few times and finishes in a field. Two of his passengers dead. eek

first crash was a year ago, last december was drivin me mums Rover 214Si down a motorway, came off the sliproad too fast, braked, skidded straight into the back of a Vectra, not much damage done to the Veccy, but the whole front end of me mums car got pushed back a couple of inches, bonnet crumpled, radiator bent front headlights smashed out....Still drove it home! lol

Cheers to dazza for straightenin out the bonnet on that night by leg dropping it lol!!

but for minor scratches and knocks, me first one was about 3 hours after I passed me test, driving round a tight bend and a van came round too fast, took off the wingmirror and scatched down the side of the car.

So far I'm crash free in me Fiesta, apart from mounting a kerb to avid a kid runnin out after his ball
