I know this is a shit post, but you didn’t make a joke so I have to imagine you’re partially curious about the genuine answer.

Twice.

  1. Was my fault. I was trying to turn right at a corner into the left turn lane (crossing 2 lanes) there was a break in traffic and a guy waved me through so I went and hit someone on the side of their car. No major injuries for either party, but it was scary and stressful. It also underscored to me that there’s just no room to be in a hurry. I’ve been a much more patient driver since then and also avoid unprotected left turns if at all possible.
  2. On my commute home from work in bumper to bumper traffic, I had someone lightly rear end me (probably going 5mph or less). She was freaked out but there was no damage beyond a tiny scratch so we chatted briefly and just left. No insurance or anything.
