Today, I stopped at a red light. I noticed the car in front of me had their reverse lights on. I thought to myself, "Meh, that person must know. They wouldn't do that." The light turned green. Turns out they didn't. Nor did they have insurance. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I stopped at a red light, when I noticed the car in front of me was in reverse. I honked at the driver, hoping he'd realize and place the car in drive. He thought the light turned green and immediately backed into me. FML
Today, I stopped at a yellow light. The guy behind me did not. He had no insurance. FML
Today, the person I was driving behind put their car in reverse and backed straight into me. I was then yelled at and told, "I had my reversing lights on! Why didn't you move?!" FML
Today, I was driving in my very own car that I bought and paid for myself, when I stopped at a stop light. Then I noticed the truck in front of me turn on his reverse lights. I honked desperately. He hits me, looks out the window and says, "I see no damage" and drives away. FML
Today, a stoplight turned yellow as I was approaching it. I was about to go through but saw a cop, panicked, and slammed on the brakes. I ended up in the middle of the intersection and had to reverse. Soon the light turned green, and I stepped on the gas. My car was still in reverse. FML
Today, I pulled up to an intersection behind a car waiting to turn left and we missed a whole set of lights. As I was getting frustrated that they weren’t going when the light was green, I realised I was waiting behind a parked car. FML
Today, I noticed that an SUV forgot to put their gas cap back on, so I tried honking and flashing my lights to get their attention. They slammed on their brakes, causing me to rear-end them. So much for good karma. 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 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
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?

Damn that sucks...the first time i ever drove i did that in a residential neighborhood except i was the one in reverse....and the car behind me was a brand new Mercedes SL55. He pulled up very close behind me cus he was very impatient. I floored it...how i didnt hit him i dont know, i guess i must have spidy reflexes, but i came to a stop about 5 inches away from him.

I hate people like that. And yes, I hope you called the cops on his/her ass! Next time though trust your judgement and give the idiot more room to **** their own car up without ******* yours too.

Isn't reverse on the opposite side of the gears than 1st, which I assume most people use when leaving lights?

vw's have the reverse top left. and most cars are automatic here.

Ok you should have beeped your horn or something to let them know you were behind them. If they have the reverse lights on, chances are they are probably going to do that. Anyways, FYL. That sucks. Sue em. Lol.

Yooouuuch dude. The worst part about your situation is the , "oh no that couldn't happen, that'd be too ridiculous" feeling...Then Lo and Behold, Stupidity once again doesn't fail to astound as you watch that shit come at you from a mile away...Sure it'll iron itself out over time(and much headache); but good luck.

Drivers like those really need to pay attention as they drive. No insurance likely meant a stolen vehicle. Hope the guy gets his license provoked.

FYL, but consider yourself lucky. Some people would make a HUGE fuss over it... and try to sue you... or get money out of you... and basically make it your fault. How did that guy even get a license?!
