Today, during an hour-long drive, my sister told me she's lost her "faith in humanity", because one of her friends bought his 8-year-old son an iPad. She uses this stupid expression all the time, and I got so pissed off that I forgot to brake at a red light, rear-ending the car in front of us. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got in the car with my brother, who drives all the time with his eyes glued to his phone. We stopped at a red light, it turned green. I noticed that he was still looking down and told him the car ahead was moving. I then got screamed at, saying how I'm always right, how my friends suck, and how he wished I was dead. FML
Today, my little sister came to me crying about how everyone calls her a bad driver. I gave her a pep talk, an encouraging hug, and told her not to listen to negativity. Five minutes later she wrecked my car. FML
Today, I was shopping when I overheard a woman telling an employee that she was buying an iPad for her 5-year-old son. Annoyed, I turned around and ranted about how he should have more age appropriate toys. Then she explained that her son is autistic and will be using the iPad to communicate. FML
Today, my mom was driving with my brothers and sister in the back seat. She was turned around talking to us, when my sister told my mom that she missed the light. She ran it, then screamed at us about not paying attention and noticing your surroundings. FML
Today, I asked my teenage daughter to read off directions from my iPhone while I drove. She went on Instagram instead. We missed the turn by 32 miles. FML
Today, I was driving my little sister to school. She really didn't wanna go and was throwing a tantrum in the car. When we stopped at a red light, my sister notices a police man giving a ticket to another driver. She rolled down her window and screamed "Help me! I'm being kidnapped by a murderer!" FML
Today, I pulled up next to a lady who was trying to text, smoke, and drive. My brother said that she was probably going to cause an accident. He was right. At the next light, she hit us. She then yelled that I purposely caused the accident because, "that's how teenagers are." FML
Today, I completely lost it when I found out my mom was driving around with my 20-month-old daughter not sat in a car seat. She told me I was overreacting, and that everything was fine since she “prayed for a safe journey.” FML
Today, I was on my way home on my bike when a lady in a 4WD cut me off while beeping her horn and calling me a "stupid f**ker who should get a proper education." In her car, she was smoking, and her three children weren't wearing seat belts. FML
Today, I saw a woman still texting on her phone as she started to drive away when the light turned green. I made sure to stare her down and give her a dirty look because she wasn't paying attention to driving. She laughed as I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Unfortunately, getting pissed off is no excuse for not using your breaks.

I do feel sympathetic since people who use that expression are generally really annoying and act smarter than they actually are, but still, YDI.

The driver you hit will have his faith in humanity restored by the many iPads you will be buying him.

Perhaps instead of worrying about your sister's stupidity you should, oh I don't know, WATCH THE ******* ROAD. That's a 2000kg weapon filled with explosive fuel you're controlling there, champ. Learn some goddamned responsibility.

I honestly don't see how some people can get their driver's licenses.

Aaaaaaaaand the mods corrected it. To anyone wondering, the FML originally spelled out "brakes" as "breaks."

The drivers Ed examiner lost his faith in humanity, so wanted us all to lose it with this dumbass on the road.

Maybe we should start a fund and buy a motorcycle for OP, it would be a rapid learning experience in the consequences of inattention while driving.

Oh I agree with you doc. YDI to OP . You don't know bad that could have injured someone. That person might have whiplash really badly. I injured my knee in my accident and it was a yellow light I couldn't safely stop at. Paying attention to the road is better than getting injured or worse.

YDI for getting that pissed over such a little thing. But your sister is also dumb. Previous generations, and future generations will always hace stuff like this happen because technology is always advancing, and there will always be people with a bit more money than you.

I bet you OP's sister's Facebook picture consists of her being in the bathroom and doing a duck face. But then again, you weren't paying attention to the road as you should have!

That's when a well-timed "YOLO" can put the conversation out of its misery. From there, you can always drive in silence or turn on the radio.

I think there may have been a "YOLO" used, prior to OP forgetting to use their brakes.
