Today, I was driving down a highway during rush-hour. I heard my phone ring and couldn't find it. I bent down to feel around for it and got in an accident and totaled my car. The ringing? A commercial on the radio. Where was my phone? On my dresser at home. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I forgot my phone on the roof of my car. I took a 30 minute drive from my friend's city to my city. I got on to my driveway, surprised to see my phone still there. Thinking I'm really lucky, I pick up my phone. Then, I trip over a pebble, cracking my phone in the process. FML
Today, while driving, I got a call on my cell phone. Trying to be safe and avoid an accident, I pulled into the nearest parking lot before answering. While I was turning in to park, someone rear-ended me. FML
Today, while trying to find my phone in the depths of the sheets on my bed, I gave my comforter a huge shake. A second later, I heard a crash. My phone had miraculously flown straight into the glass of water on my nightstand. Found it. FML
Today, it wasn't until I heard something fly off the roof of my car and hit the trunk, then asphalt, that I remembered where I left my phone while unlocking the car door. FML
Today, I put my phone on top the car while putting my daughter in her car seat. Told myself not to forget it. Then I drove away, and it flew off the top of the car on the freeway. It got ran over. FML
Today, I couldn’t find my phone as I left work, but knew it was on me since CarPlay connected. Later, the music cut out speeding up onto the freeway. I then recalled placing it on the roof as I loaded up the car. FML
Today, while driving, I realized I had left my phone on top of my car when I was getting in. Panicking, I drove back to look for it. I found it in the middle of the street, still intact. Yay! When I went back to my car, I noticed I had locked my door, and the keys were in the ignition. FML
Today, I got rear-ended trying to move off the road because I heard a police siren. It was the radio. FML
Today, I left my phone on the roof of my car after pumping gas. I drove off, and it wasn't until I heard a thud that I realized what had happened. Now my phone has a gash in the screen, and it's receiving angry texts from my girlfriend that I can't answer. FML
Today, I dropped my phone in the parking lot and it landed next to a car tire. As I reached to pick it up, the car backed up and ran over my phone and my hand. Hello, emergency room! FML

That's why you ignore the sound of ringing phones when you're on the road. Pull over next time.

The idea of trying to answer your phone while driving.

I don't care what happened, short of your car catching fire, operating a 2-ton vehicle moving at great speed should ALWAYS be your FIRST priority. Kthx bye.

That was just stupidity, even if you had your phone and someone was calling...if it was important they could of left a voicemail.

WTF, you idiot. You totally deserved it. Don't use your phone while driving. It's common sense. Your life depends on it.

you are a douche! I hope the accident only involved yourself and not some innocent person who was actually DRIVING.. this is why it is becoming illegal. It just became illegal last month here in Ontario. Go spend $20 on a bluetooth, or don't answer your phone. YDI for being so damned irresponsible on a busy road.

I live in AZ, and this is so goddamn typical. You definitely deserved it. If anyone else was involved, I hope you pay for it. And for the record... I'm a chick, and even I know you shouldn't do anything other than drive and pay attention to the road/cars around you when driving.
