Luckily I've seen only minor ones, so I can't imagine what I would do or how I would feel if I see a really serious crash. Maybe I'll freeze because of the trauma, even if I wasn't the victim. Have you ever seen a car accident? How did it affect you? Did it urge you to be extra careful in driving?Did it leave you reast less in the night while the scene plays in your head again and again?

I've seen just the after math of the accident at the corner of our street. Two tricycles collided at the intersection where it was also used as a basketball court. Some glass shards on the street as well as deformed vehicles, one was tipped over due to the impact I guess.
I just walked by like it happens everyday. I checked and luckily, no blood spills to indicate serious injury for either passengers or the drivers.
Certain things like that would be talked about around town for at least a week or two and things would go back the usual.

I've seen a woman driving an onwer-type jeep trying to get across a highway, when suddenly she miss calculated and never saw an AUV coming from her left side. Then all of a sudden, her jeep got hit and lost control. Then another one from the passenger's side accidentally hit her also, the lady driver got stunned and was probably shocked on the crash. As for me, debris come flying and nearly missing me. I'm still glad that nothing serious happened to the drivers involved on that mishap.

yes I have one day a semi pulled out in frount of a car and the car ran into the side of the semi. It smashed the whole frountend of the car in and the lady broke her leg.and the bone went through her skin. But I didnt bother me because I was a nurse at the time so I was able to help her til help got there.

I haven't seen one yet but I do have experience it. Fortunately me and friend were not injured on the accident. My friend was the one who drove the car and he tried to over take the first vehicle but then our car swivel, wiggling and he loses control. We reach on the gutter and bash the front bumper to lightpost and circled 360 degrees going and almost hit the next post. It was one scary moment of my life and him. I was thinking it was the last night of my life. We are both shocked and steady for quite a while. It just so lucky that both of us does not have any scratches or injuries and realize we both forgot to put the seatbelt on. The one who got injured are the one behind us who stopped and look at us. A dumbtrack had stopped and behind it is a FEDEX track which was bump by the next track behind it. We were told he suffered minor injuries and was taken immediately to the hospital.
My friend's honda car was really devastated and not so long he sold it for a lower price but later on he bought a new one, a Chevy. The sad thing is, my friend paid the damages on the gutter and the lightpost because it is a government property.
It is the worst but lucky night of my life. As an advice don't play too much on Need For Speed.
