Well.. i don't know if you can really call it wreck, buy airbags did come out when i jumped that one road in the 'stupid things you've done' thread.

Some idiot in a chebby backed into me while i was sitting in the parking lot at school.. no damage though.

So i'm pretty much accident free.. according to the insurance company.

Some friends had a their first and last wreck this summer. I won't say any names but....they were racing. A bunch of us were going to a party Sat night. So we thought we'd take the back roads. There were about 6 cars/trucks all following eachother there. A Ford F-150 4x4 was in the lead and another F-150 4x4 was right behind him. We always race on flat ground, but the truck in the back thought he'd pass guy #1 in front. He almost made it, but we came to a hill to fast so instead of getting back in line he floored it. When he topped the hill he ran head on into a van. The other truck he was passing only got sideswipped. But after the crash you couldn't even tell it was a truck. The family in the van was killed. The driver of F-150 #2 was killed but his passenger was ok. Seeing them cut a steering wheel from your dead buddys body will make you think twice about racing in a unsafe manner.

no wrecks, hope to keep it that way. the closest thing i have has was in my back yard in my truck a tree about 2" thick was in my way so i floored it. another one like that was in the jeep cherokee useing it to get back and forth to my stuck truck in the back yard and the garage to get tools. i was driving, and my cousin and friend were with me, rear axle caught a stump and stopped us right then, i was only going about 10mph, but dang there was no give in that stump AT ALL and we all flew forward.

I sideswiped a road sign in my Mini when I was 17 (I had just discovered lift off oversteer ), got spun around and did a little damage to the rear quater panel.

Still here to tell the tale though.
Fingers crossed that will be the first and last

I ran a red light and totaled a ladys blazer. They impounded my truck and told me to tow it home from vermont. I got it out of the impound and told the police i was waiting for my brother. Then i got her running got some spot lights on the plow frame mounts and used them as head lights all the way to maine. Last week I totale a girls neon when she swereved into my lain to miss a parked car. It jst broke the headlight off my plow. I had new ones at home so i had nothin really wrong.

I was on my way to school, having stayed up all night writing a term paper. Just after I got out of heavy traffic I dozed off and started drifting into the shoulder. I awoke suddenly, I had gotten to about 80mph, and over-corrected. This sent me spinning in the shoulder and inner lanes (3 lane freeway). I straightened myself out after 5 or 6 spins, but unfortunately it was directly into the concrete median. Totalled the car, there wasn't a single good body part left on it, even the trunk was torqued beyond easy use, I had to pry it open to get my bags. Luckily I didn't hit anyone, especially being how the road was packed that day. I wasn't injured either.

I hit a 90 model dodge pickup with my 81 ford f-250. I was driving fast after a light drizzle and I was going around a turn but it went sideways. I over corected and hit the dodge that was in the left turning lane

I had a s-10 pull out in front of me while i was drving a 1999 F-350 4x4 towing a 25 foot gooseneck trailer with a county ditch mowing tractor on it. Soon after he pulled out he then slammed on his brakes and i had no chance, hit him at maybe 10 mph. Officer decided it was my fault and the guy tryed to say it gave him back problems..... he was a jerk. Didnt get any points though and the hometown judge here let me off since he actually knew how big trucks and trailers worked lol. but thats the only one for me, and it wasent even really my fault, just about every adult that knows me says i'm one of the safest drivers they know lol. But when you drive all the time hauling farm equipment and grain like i do, i guess it helps ur reputation lol.

Ran over the front end of a Honda with my F-150(9" lift and 39.5" TSL's) in a parking lot. Car parked next to me, I couldn't see it as I pulled out I ran over the front drivers side corner of the car. As this was happening the owner of the car was walking out of the store and saw the whole thing. Turns out she was a teacher at my high school so I just bought new parts and we put it back together as an auto shop project.

Was comming back from three weeks out on the road when I was 21 and broadsided a chevy cavilier at 55 that pulled out infront of me in the drivers side door, ended up rolling my semi on its side. I walked away. She wasent so lucky. Got in my second wreck the same day, driving home from the depot in my pickup after another driver had picked me up same thing happened but this time it was a civic. That guy was lucky though. He only had to go to the hospital for a broken leg. Totaled my truck though and his car. I quit driving otr that day, but still occasionaly make local runs for another company when they need help.
