I had a truck wipe out the side of my corsa when it tried to pull into the outside lane of a dual carriageway as i was going past him!
Car got fixed at a cost of £2300+
6 months later a toyota hilux ran up my arse in traffic. Car was a write off. Got told car was only worth 2k so technically it should have been a write off the first time. Not many people managed to write off the same car twice

No pics (yet), but car rolled into security fence-post in work's car-park......cross-member (repairable) & slam-panel (needs replacing) both kinked, radiator and aircon-radiator also need replacing...
Remember kids, ALWAYS check your car isn't in gear before starting it (am so used to using remote-start, so it's never in-gear when it starts)......for one very rare time, I didn't check yesterday and it bit hard! 
Just waiting to hear the potential damage to the bank-balance, now......they've not actually replaced anything yet, waiting for them to call me back with the quote.
Oh, forgot to say......first "accident" since I passed my test in March 1994. Not too bad going, I guess!
As a passenger, though, have been in a few bad'uns: worst being hit head-on by a speeding driver (police estimated 50mph in a 30mph zone, judging by skidmarks/etc) who drifted onto the wrong side of the road after taking a blind corner FAR too fast, and smashed into my mate's car as we were waiting to turn across the road into the junction. It spun the car 3 times down the road, narrowly missing a HGV following not far behind, and ended up with the car parked on someone's driveway. Both cars complete write-offs...

Well, had a quote for the damage, and it's quite a bit higher than expected, so have to go through insurance (thankfully, took out protected no-claims for the first time this year)...
£1145, to fix a stupid mistake......hopefully, it'll teach me a lesson to always check from now on!
