Accidents:
This is an interesting question, because I have never hit a moving object. Unfortunately, I have destroyed a mailbox (in the middle of the day, with my mom in the car), pulled in too close to an SUV in a parking lot, scratching their car and breaking my headlight, and gotten hit numerous times in numerous cars, all while parked.

I have hit the following motionless objects: a parked car that I scraped trying to squeeze into a spot, but it wasn't noticeable so I just moved my car. I still feel bad about it though. I backed the car into a tree in my driveway and chipped the rear bumper; I've hit a fence, and a pizza parlor when I forgot to put the car in park. These were all soon after getting my license, nothing since then. Never been in a real accident that was my fault though.

Mostly just eat, talk on the phone and listen/sing to music. FWIW I don't dial numbers while driving, unless it's speed dial and I can do it without looking at the phone.

Oh, and wave at hot girls.

I caused a fenderbender back in HS, nothing too serious. My car (Taurus) had a decent amount of damage but the other car (minivan) was fine. There is a horrible turn right by my house - there's an accident about every week. I've been in two accidents (as a passenger) and almost been in half a dozen more at that turn, a couple of which could have been horrific accidents.

Mostly just listen to music, occasionally I call or text but that's pretty rare.

"and I also have invisible lasers that come out of the corners of my car that I shoot stuff with, mostly trees and telephone poles. "

i do this too, but i also shoot the cars going in the opposite direction. my lasers come in varying speeds, depending on how fast the oncmoing cars are going. also, if i'm in the far right lane, the cars just left of me going in the same direction can block my shots, which adds another level of difficulty.

[/ QUOTE ]

Cars have impenetrable fields that I can't shoot at because it will bounce back at me, sometimes I have to slowdown or speed up a little to get a pole on the opposite side of the road while avoiding another car.

I'm surprised you were unaware of this.

I'm a bit more oldschool here- I have a giant blade on top of my car that I maneuver to cut through phone/power lines, chop power poles, and take the roofs of cars etc.

I may upgrade to a lazer soon though, I think I've accomplished pretty much everything with my giant blade that I can, and the challenge just isnt there anymore.

I drive while I'm driving. I've been in one car accident, and that a mailbox that was totally out of control and forced me to run over it.

I have a boring 80 mile daily round trip commute. Here's a few things I do in traffic that may or may not be typical:

- change into workout clothes (if I don't, I won't go to the gym)

- read

- Su Doku

List what you do while driving along with the total number of car accidents with which you've been involved. Me- 1 (rear ended).

drive.0 car accidents.
