Today, my friend and I were driving to Florida from Michigan. While going through Ohio my car hydroplaned over a puddle on the highway. I ended up hitting the median and my car got wrecked. Not only am I stuck in Ohio with a car that won't work, I got a ticket for $300 for hitting Ohio property. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I lost control of my vehicle while driving. The car went off the road, rolled over, and ended up being totaled. The policeman asked me if I was alright and I said I was. He seemed relieved at my answer. Then he handed me a $300 ticket for failing to maintain my lane. FML
Today, I found out where my stolen car was. It was all the way in Maine. I live in Ohio and I got a $300 fine for illegal parking. FML
Today, my car broke down dead in the middle of the highway. As I was unable to get it out of the road, it was impounded, and my insurance won't help. Now I'm further in debt and struggling to get to work. FML
Today, it was nice out, so I drove with my car windows down. I was stopped trying to turn onto a busy highway, when a car turned off the highway right next to me, hit a pothole, and splashed dirty water into my window and into my open mouth. FML
Today, it was raining heavily. I saw a large puddle by the edge of the road near with a passing lady. Thinking it would be funny to splash her, I swerved to hit the puddle. The puddle was deeper than I thought. I lost control of the car, spun out, and hit two parked cars. FML
Today, my fiancé got impatient and passed a lady doing 15 mph under the speed limit. The lady was driving slowly in case the black ice in the other lane was in both. We spun out and drove right into a guard rail. I'd just filled the tank, so now I'm down $40 and need to pay for a rental too. FML
Today, I paid $2300 to a mechanic for fixing my car. It's also the day I got into an accident and totalled said car. FML
Today, as I was talking to my girlfriend about how I need to find another job to be able to afford school next fall, I hit a deer causing about $3,000 in damages to my car. FML
Today, I lost control of my car on a patch of ice and slid off the road, messing up my car. I was working on a news story about bad road conditions. FML
Today, I hit a patch of black ice and totaled my car. The car is a month old. For the next 5 years I'll be paying for a car I can't drive. FML

I'm pretty sure it rains almost everywhere, even in Michigan, and especially in Florida, not just Ohio. If it were snow and you were from Florida, I would feel bad. But rain? Drive the speed limit and keep your eyes on the road for standing water, and slow down or go around it. But hey, Ohio is fun. Indians are in town, and you are from Michigan. Though I LOVE the Indians I'm going to tell you to go see a game, you may have fun watching them lose. Again.

YDI for having crap tire profile. If the condition of your tires would be good this wouldnt have happend. Or you could sue the state of Ohio for not keeping their roads drive-safe. On a propper highway water doesnt stay on the road because roads should b build abit sideways so rainwater runs off it naturally.

Everyone knows you drive slower when there is THAT much rain on the highway. I have no sympathy for you.

Hydroplaning is not a crime, and neither is crashing into something on accident.

Ohio is simply the armpit of america, I'm so sorry you're stranded in that nasty state. I just hope you had a wonderful time in Florida for that to be worth the crash. All in all FYL cause you got stuck in ohio.

You obviously haven't been to many other places in America. Yes, certain areas of Ohio are bad, but isn't that with every state?

At least Ohio doesn't have Detroit which is trashier than just about anything in America.
