Just be thankful you weren't actually hit. It would have done a number on you if the driver didn't get away in time.

I was in a car accident once, bitch almost made my car fall over the cross intersection bridge.

I was in a car accident in the rain once, it was very serious and scared the shit out of me. I ended up on the shoulder and took the hit in the back quarter panel so I wasn't hurt. I still can't drive in heavy downpours to this day

To make it worse, my car was totaled and I was very sad because I loved that car. It was my own fault, though. I should've replaced all four tires instead of just the front two. I would not have hydroplaned if I had done that.

Holy fucking shit that's terrifying. D:
Glad you're alive and all though.

Goodness I've been in a few car accidents and many near accidents, myself. They still manage to each be just as, if not more so, terrifying than the last. Every. Single. Time.

Have you uploaded this dishclothhat?

And damn, that sucks!

Yep. I've had several run-ins with the Reaper myself:

I was climbing a smallish 20-30 foot tall tree. I was a fat kid and climbed way nearer the top than I should have and the top 5 foot section of the tree broke and I fell head-first toward the ground. Luckily the branches from the broken part I was clinging to interlocked with the rest of the tree and stopped my fall about 2 feet from my skull making contact with the ground.
My dementia-addled grandfather approached me with a loaded revolver pointed at me and teld me to go shoot the cat on the porch. I got the gun away from him and checked the porch and found nothing but an empty beer can. Also, he had Parkinsons, so his hand (and triggerfinger) were shaking the entire time.
I flipped my car on its roof at 70 mph on the I-10 in New Orleans. This was after losing control and hitting a wall head on like Dale Earnhardt.
My spastic neighbour pointed his dad's hunting rifle at me face as a hilarious "joke" trying to psych me out by slowly squeezing the trigger, insisting the gun his dad keeps mounted above his bed in the middle of the fucking country isn't loaded (bullshit ). Just shy of pulling it all the way, he finally gives in to my "being a pussy" and checks the chamber to find it loaded and gives a dismissive "Oh" in response.
A semi-truck half-way ran a redlight at 3am, stopping in the middle of the intersection just a foot or two away from my door as I was in the intersection.
A friend was swinging me in a hammock (against my will) when the hook broke and I fell to the ground. It wouldn't be a big deal if he were short and I fell three feet or so. However he is seven feet tall, and this was from the full extent of his upward reach (so probably nine or ten feet in all) and I landed on my spine, heard a loud snap in my back and could not breathe. After a minute or two of struggling to even gasp, I began coughing and sputtering and asked why I couldn't breathe and he replied "You might have punctured a lung." That would be the perfect combination with my asthma and a collapsed septum. Luckily I didn't puncture a thing and after thirty minutes of coughing and gasping I was fine.
Back in July of this year a bullet ricocheted within ten feet of me. It wasn't from anyone shooting at me, it was just a stray that hit the fence a few feet away. Still.

Back when I had a really tiny car, I was at a stop sign when someone hit me from behind sending me straight into the car coming down the opposite side of the road, so I was hit in the front and in the back, then my car spun out of control and wrapped around a bus stop pole :/ I was unconscious after that but I remember waking up enough to notice my airbags were pink. Then I was at the hospital. I never knew airbags were pink before.

I was involved in a collision when I was 12. I wasn't hurt, but it was scary as fuck
Glad you're ok though
And congrats on nanowrimo

I've had moments like that but I didn't process till after and then AAAH! kicks in and it's so horrible. I wonder if there's some kind CCTV where you were that you could try to get the car that almost hit you.

I utterly failed NaNiWriMo this time. Although my partner and I are making sure we keep writing any way just to keep going.

Wait, you were in a hit-and-run? I hope they catch that asshole.

Here, have some funny/interesting to keep your mind off mortality (warning: I am slow at internet, and you may have seen some of these before):
