Have you ever almost wrecked your car because...

Ok, let’s hear the truth! Men and women both!

Who here has nearly had an accident with their car because they were ogling a hot woman or man walking/jogging/etc down the street?

I catch myself doing this so often, it’s scary. I am always checking out the lovely ladies I see as I drive, only to look forward and notice I am heading 2/3rds the way into the wrong lane or something! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Maybe I should invest in a pair of sideblinders like horses wear. LOL

Kinda similar, but not really. When I was 15, me and my two best friends were walking down the street in Gatlinburg wearing our short little shorts, and tank tops or something. A couple of guys rode by on their bikes, and were checking us out as we passed. One of them ran his bike into a parked car. Oops.

Not me, but in high school my friend Tracy and I were stopped in the left turn lanes going into the local mall. We were going to go buy some clove cigarettes before a party.

Well, she’s the hot one and driving a cool Nissan Maxima (hey it was basically brand new, perfect for teens to tote their friends around), four guys drove up and stopped next to us in the regular lanes.

We were talking to them when their VW Bug ran into the car ahead of them. The driver let go of the break not paying attention, too intent on the conversation (on a hill) and SMACK.

Our light turned green to turn and we drove off laughing our asses off.

As a teen, this was one of the funniest things we had ever encountered, I will never forget that.

Well, I had some friends who got out and ran a Chinese fire drill at a red light. The driver of a car going through the intersection leaned out the window and yelled “What the hell are you doing? That’s really dange-BAM!” and slammed into the truck in front of him, because he was too busy yelling at them to notice it had stopped. That’s life.

It’s pretty irrisponsible to look at women while you’re driving. It’s just not the done thing, like eating while on the computer…damn I just dropped my KFC on the keyboard. :rolleyes:

Nope. shrug

I was making googoo eyes with a really cute guy at a light. When I took off making my left turn, we were still googooing at each other and I sideswiped a utility pole with my side mirror. Lost the mirror, kept going & saw Mr Hottie cracking up laughing behind me. :rolleyes:

If some guy posts here saying, yeah, this redhead knocked the mirror off her Ford truck…

umm…hi. :smiley:

Not QUITE the same thing, but…

I once had a little fender bender from receiving a blow job while driving.

Not exactly, but what happened to me was really funny and really embarrassing…

I was riding shotgun with my best friend in her parents’ brand-new Chrysler Concorde, with the windows rolled down all the way and the stereo pumping. (Picture it! A dark green “old people” car with two 18 year old girls blasting Limp Bizkit and Chris Cagle alternately, rolling down the highway…) Anyway we both spotted this incredibly hot skater guy going down the sidewalk and so being the obnoxious b*tch that I am I hung out the window and hollered to him that he had a nice rear end just as we drove under a big tree. I got as far as “HEY! NICE --” FWAP-KLUNK
I got slapped in the face by leaves and hit my head on a low-hanging tree branch and almost lost my glasses.

:o

Walked off of a boardwalk while ogling a beautiful woman in a string bikini and fell 4 feet into the sand.

Almost rear ended a cop car while intensely admiring a lady in hot pants and a real small halter top, but that was OK, because he never noticed because he was ogling her also.

Not a trafifc accident but my husband has locked the keys in the car because he was busy ogling a busty redhead.
Twice.

Anyone ever been in a wreck/almost a wreck because of a woman?

One time I was driving in my parents Corvette after waxing it up real nice, I had the glass top off and the stereo was blasting. As I rolled down the street, a girl was watching me and as I passed, she wasn’t really paying attention to what she was doing b/c she ran into a mailbox! :smiley:

Been there, did that, paid for the repairs.

Long blond hair, I turned, and rear-ended a Chevy who had stopped at the intersection.

Turned out the blond was a guy…

Not I (24 years old, and I still haven’t gone for my licence!!), but my brother wrote off his car when he was checking out some girls. Bad: Crashed the car in front of the girls. Worse: They knew him. Even Worse: Crashed into a bad tempered woman who’d only had her new car a matter of hours. She turned into a screaming virago, and demanded someone pin my brother down while she called the police. All this lead to my brother not only writing off his car but also losing his licence for three months and being fined $250 he could ill-afford.
And all this out the front of the school where he worked as a handyman. :slight_smile:
It was rather unfortunate, since the accident really didn’t require police intervention, but once they got there, they were able to hold the woman back, because she was trying to attack my brother. Poor kid was only 18, and had only had his licence for 6 months. He was returning to work after his lunch break when it happened. At least he learned a valuable (and expensive) lesson.
