Today, while driving to a client's home, I received a text. Since I loathe those who text and drive, I pulled into a convenience store's parking lot. While I was texting, a car sped into the lot, rear-ending my car. FML

Easy mistake

Today, I parked my car on the street late at night, when I was distracted by a text message. Some guy then gets in my passenger side. Panicked, thinking I was being robbed, I bolt out of my car bruising my head and dropping my phone onto the pavement. The guy meant to get in the car behind me. FML

Today, I met a girl at a bar. After buying her a few drinks, we decided to head back to her place. Not wanting to leave either of our cars, I followed her home. While driving, she sent me text because she missed her exit. I tried to text her back something witty and instead rear ended her. FML

Today, I saw a woman still texting on her phone as she started to drive away when the light turned green. I made sure to stare her down and give her a dirty look because she wasn't paying attention to driving. She laughed as I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Today, I was in a car accident. After screaming at the woman for running into me, I got in my car and drove off. As I was driving away, I was staring her down when I ended up rear-ending the person in front of me. FML

Today, I decided to be a good driver and not run through the yellow light. As soon as I stopped my car another came and rear-ended me. The guy told me to go in the parking lot so we can exchange information. So I drove into the parking lot, I turned my head and watched him drive away. FML

Today, I was driving in stop and go traffic and passed two accidents in the process. I got nervous and decided to change routes to avoid getting hit. As I was trying to find an alternative route on my GPS, I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Today, I got rear ended. The guy flashed his lights at me to pull over, so I pulled into the side of the road. He drove away. FML

You unwittingly starred in a rare pro texting-while-driving ad.

At least you weren't texting and driving. You might have been the one causing the accident. Hopefully, you were not hurt.

So the situation totally sucks but at least you did the smart thing and pulled over instead of what the other person was doing.

OP didn't die. So no, karma didn't do anything.

What OP doesn't tell us: She stopped right in the middle of the driveway to the parking lot.

'Karma' doesn't always result in death

It doesn't result in death, it happens because of death.

OP, that sucks. I'm glad *you* did the right thing even tho the other driver was prolly driving distracted. Hope you're ok.

OP, did you stop in the driveway/lane of the parking lot instead of actually parking? Even if a car sped into a lot, they generally aren't in a position to hit a parked car, especially rear ending one.
