Today, I got into a wreck thanks to a big flashing sign on the highway that said, "Keep your eyes on the road" that distracted me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got into a car accident. I got into it because I noticed a flashy new sign on the highway that read "Being an attentive driver prevents car crashes". Thanks for the notice. FML
Today, while driving my car, there was a talk on the radio about road safety. I got so engrossed that I drifted and crashed my car into a sign promoting the talk. 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 rear-ended a car while I was texting about the accident ahead which was causing all the traffic. FML
Today, there was a traffic accident on the highway which I normally take. I couldn't resist laughing at the driver since he was stupid enough to rear-end someone on the highway. What I didn't realize is that I forgot to pay attention to the road and rear-ended the car in front of me. FML
Today, I added "a road sign" to my ever-growing list of "Things which have hit my car as a result of the wind." FML
Today, I tripped on a step that said "Watch your step." Two hours later, I hit my head on a sign that said "Mind your head." FML
Today, I accidentally ran a stop sign. It wouldn't have been so bad if the stop sign hadn't been in a traffic cop's hands. FML
Today, I thought I'd be safe by looking before crossing a one way street unlike I normally do. Too bad I looked the wrong way and didn't see the car that hit me. FML
Today, while driving, I got a call on my cell phone. Trying to be safe and avoid an accident, I pulled into the nearest parking lot before answering. While I was turning in to park, someone rear-ended me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I feel you on that one. I used to be awestruck by shiny and flashing objects, but then I turned seven.

FYL for someone's idiotic idea to make a giant flashing sign. YDI because it shouldn't take you more than half a second to read it, especially if it's that big and flashy.

that's like if somebody flashed u and instead of taking a look and then going back to your buisness (staring at the ******* road) u just stare without blinking. it's ur own damn fault don't blame a sign for your stupidity.

Don't worry about it! I would have probably done the same thing.

That's just kinda terrifying to me. Please tell me you are not driving in San Diego.

women are always distracted by shiny objects, diamonds for one, & big flashing signs is another.

That's not always true. I'm a woman and I personally think diamonds are hideous and want nothing to do with them. I am also fully capable of glancing at a flashing sign/object and looking away without hitting anything with a car.

YOU THINK DIAMONDS ARE HIDEOUS? WTF?

Same and they're my birth stone. I make my own jewelry using materials people would normally throw away and hemp. Hippie for life. :D
ChibiChibi_fml 28
Yes, yes I do itsbrookebixch. I don't know why, I just know that diamonds have never appealed to me. I don't find them at all pretty and tend to think they are gaudy as hell.

as a general statement MOST women love/like diamonds

I wonder which hurt more; the crash or the irony.
