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!

With that kind of intelligence you should tell him you're a secret diplomat.

Well, he's the one who's gonna get ****** over. Just be happy that his life will be ruined for a bit in exchange for being an ass to you.

If OP was nearly killed I don't think he would have been able to get out of his car and ask the other guy if he was okay...

#54, that OP was lucky enough to still be able to get out of the car and go check on the other driver means he wasn't nearly dead, but doesn't necessarily mean he wasn't nearly killed -- a split second in either direction could have made the difference between an accident he was able to walk away from and a very terminal one.

That's when you remind the other driver that he's the one who ran the red light. He's the one whose insurance will be paying for damages because he's the one who made the mistake. Don't let him brow-beat you into submission, OP.

You were able to ask if he was okay although you were nearly killed?

I got one word for you: DASHCAM

What a dick! Hopefully the police collect the right evidence and do the right thing by you, OP. Blowing through a red light AND THEN saying something so callous to you, who came to see if he was alright, speaks volumes.
