Today, I was driving in my very own car that I bought and paid for myself, when I stopped at a stop light. Then I noticed the truck in front of me turn on his reverse lights. I honked desperately. He hits me, looks out the window and says, "I see no damage" and drives away. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I stopped at a red light, when I noticed the car in front of me was in reverse. I honked at the driver, hoping he'd realize and place the car in drive. He thought the light turned green and immediately backed into me. FML
Today, the person I was driving behind put their car in reverse and backed straight into me. I was then yelled at and told, "I had my reversing lights on! Why didn't you move?!" 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
Today, I was driving around a parking lot, looking for an empty spot. Someone was backing out a bit too quickly as I was about to pass by, so I honked to announce myself. The driver instead panicked and reversed into my front bumper. FML
Today, I was driving home from work and noticed the car behind me was tailgating me pretty badly. I was starting to get angry with the driver, and kept glancing in my rear view mirror at him. While I was doing so, the traffic ahead of me stopped, and I rear-ended the car 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, a stoplight dropped square into the bed of my pickup truck. The police think I was attempting to steal it, and my insurance won't cover the damage to my truck. There were no witnesses. FML
Today, while on the highway, a guy in a truck sped up to pass me. He was hauling a trailer, which hit me and ran me off the road. I called the cops and followed him all the way into town, where the cops pulled him over. They let him go without even a ticket, because, "He didn't know he hit you." FML
Today, a truck rear-ended my car and drove off. I could see everything from my office, everything except his license plate. FML
Today, I stopped at a red light. I noticed the car in front of me had their reverse lights on. I thought to myself, "Meh, that person must know. They wouldn't do that." The light turned green. Turns out they didn't. Nor did they have insurance. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

"I proceeded honk desperately"? Double fail for using "proceeded" and for forgetting the "to".

Please say you got his license plate!!! What an asshole! I hope he didn't actually damage your car and that you don't have whiplash or anything! My little brother spent four years working to save up for his (second-hand, but decent) first car, then got laid off and got a new job as a courier. Within the first six months, he was hit three times, each accident increasingly worse. The third one totalled his car, and it was a hit-and-run, too. His car was T-boned, luckily from the passenger side (he was the only one in the car) by someone running a red light, and my brother's car was half its width after. He's lucky he survived, but he lost his car, and because he was a courier, also his job. The insurance claim didn't even come close to giving him enough money for a new car, and he was so depressed for so long. I really hate people who hit other people in a manner which is clearly their fault and then don't have the balls to give your their stats in case there WAS damage! PS: #73, you're a dick. Whiplash and other neck injuries take some time to set in!

#12 - you're an idiot. What's wrong with proceeded? To big of a word or what?

Maybe you're ugly and he meant no added damage to your face. ^w^ ...Kidding. And the word proceeded is getting to be annoying. FYL.

#82... "proceeded to" is what people say to sound smart, when they actually can't think of a more appropriate term. see also: utilize.
