Today, some genius shot through a red light, hitting my car and nearly killing me. When I went to ask if he was okay, the first words out of his mouth were, "I hope you have insurance". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I stopped at a yellow light. The guy behind me did not. He had no insurance. FML
Today, I was hit by a car speeding through an intersection after the light had already turned red. Still partly blacked out, I crawled onto the sidewalk and I sat down. The woman rolled down her car window and yelled, "Watch where you're going!" as she drove by. FML
Today, I was driving to work and stopped at a stop light. A full 2 or 3 seconds passed, followed by a car rear-ending me. The idiot driving it got out and gave me hell, calling me a maniac because I braked "too quickly" and didn't give him a chance to react. FML
Today, I almost got run over on my bike by a truck who raced through a red light. After narrowly avoiding a collision, the car slowed down. Instead of apologizing for almost killing me, the driver stuck his head out of the window and yelled, "Nice ass!" FML
Today, an absolute cretin of a lorry driver ran into the back of me as I was slowing down for an orange light about to go red. My car is totalled and he had the nerve to tell the police I had brake checked him on purpose, probably for an insurance scam, and that it was all my fault. FML
Today, I got rear-ended. In possibly the scariest part of downtown. At night. By a man who spoke hardly any English but managed to ask if I would go out dancing with him instead of calling my insurance company. FML
Today, I got rear-ended at a stop sign on a seldom used road in my neighborhood. As I open my car door to trade insurance information with the guy, he backs up a little and speeds away, taking my car door with him. FML
Today, I got into a car accident. The guy wouldn't give me his information, but instead stood there saying, "Like a good neighbor, Statefarm is there." FML
Today, I got hit by a car while going out for a jog. As I writhed on the floor in pain, I heard the driver say, “Sorry!” and the sound of tires squealing. He’d sped off. I didn’t get a chance to get his license plate. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

At least you know you're a great human being for asking if he was okay even though you're the one who almost got killed!

This happened to my boyfriend. However, the cop wrote on the report that it was his fault even though the car ran the red light. Hope that doesn't happen to you OP!

OP lives in Florida, so I don't know...

depending on the state, even if a car runs a red light it's still the other cars fault due to a law in several states. you have to make sure the intersection is clear before you proceed. as dumb as it is, it's a law. and the insurance companies enforce it.

doesn't this mean the other car already has to be in the junction? If OP was T-boned then it can't be his fault...

Happened to me too, an ass talking on his cell phone T-boned me and my insurance said that to "make less trouble" they'll say it's my fault when it was clearly his.

It was safe to proceed, but since the road is curved I'm assuming the lady didn't know it was red despite the other cars in all the other lanes were at a complete stop. The collision also nearly killed my boyfriends dad. He was inches away from the impact since he was on the passenger seat.

Props to you for making sure he was alright, as opposed to being really pissy like he apparently is
