What was your worst/scary/unforgetable driving experience?

[dbuzz]

Sa akin ay yung natanggalan ako ng gulong(rear leftside) habang tumatakbo... whewww!

Tantya ko binalak nakawin yung gulong ko pero di natuloy.

Then sa highway medyo may naramdaman akong vibrations pero binaliwala ko.
pagexit ko sa alabang, at ng makarating ako sa bandang tapat ng boi dati, doon biglang bumagsak ang hulihan ng kotsi ko.

Alalay ako sa steering wheel hanggang napahinto ko sa damuhan sa kanang tabi ng kalsada, eventhough none of the breaks worked.

pero pagbaba ko lumiliyab ng apoy sa rear leftside dahil marahil sa friction sa pag-kaladkad ng walang gulong sa kalsada.

mga around midnight na yun kaya walang traffic. (noon yun)

Grabe talaga napatay ko yung apoy gamit ang kung ano ano na lang ang madampot ko.

First lesson ko: dapat pag may nararamdaman ka o madinig kang di ayos sa sasakyan mo ay dapat check agad and never take it for granted.

Second lesson: lagi dapat may fire extinguisher sa sasakyan within reach.

Mayron pang isa. binangga ako while parked by the road side.
Lumusot sa wind shield sya then kitang kita kong bumalentong yung pickup nya pabagsak sa kanya.

hollllyyy mackerelll!!

just can't believed my eyes ng makita ko syang gumagapang palabas sa ilalim ng nakataob na pickup, at sabay tayo nya, then lapit sa akin at tanong kung ok ako... believe din naman ako... kasi ako ang dapat magtanong sa kanya nyan eh.. but anyway ok sya... himala. naayos na rin ang damages at ang dahilan nya ay wala syang tulog kagagaling nya lang sa deretsong tour of duty(sundalo) at sa ospital missis nya kasi kapapanganak lang ng first baby nila. ibinalik ko sa kanya ang part ng settlement namin sabi ko sa kanya for your first baby. hay buhay nga naman.

Mine? Some people here know it...

Was driving home at five a.m., only had an hour's sleep and I needed to drive to Divisoria afterwards.

Thing is, the road I was travelling on had no lights, and, in my befuddled and sleepy state, I wasn't paying attention. When I realized what was happening, I was doing over 120 km/h right before a jump and turn in the road. I made the turn and managed to hold the car through it, but I was still going too fast... the car understeered to the outside of the turn, hit a patch of dust left behind by a typhoon three days previously, and the rest, as they say, was history.

The car spun out, hit the curb and rolled backwards in the grass. And to add injury to insult, as it was coasting to a stop, it hit a rock hidden in the grass and rolled (ever so slowly) onto its side. It would've been comical, if it wasn't me, but it was kind of AGGGH.

worst.. when i fell asleep while heading home along nlex. i rear ended a PUJ and the front of my pickup was a wreck. i was lucky it wasnt a truck or something big that I rear ended otherwise tapos ang career

scary.. when I spun taking a left handed sweeper when a dog suddenly jumped out of nowhere and I had to brake/steer. It was a really twisty/tight provincial backr road I was taking.

parang SLOMO ba?... actually yung nangyari doon sa kwento ko sa first post ko na nakabangga sa akinng sundalo na lumsut sya sa windshield them yung pickup nya straight up yung rear then... BLAGAG!!! natakluban sya.... susmarya.. kahit ngayon tanda ko pa kasi parang slomo nga ang buong eksena na yun. scary talaga

the thing is, yung rightside tires ko napa sandal sa road curb kaya super fixed ako but then bumaluktot both right tires ko kasama na shafts. then yun lefttside bumper and fender ko wasak din.

una, nakita ko syang parating then umakyat sya sa kabilang road curb then bilglang kabig sya paderetso sa akin. di naman sya kabilisan tantya ko mga 20 to 30 lang takbo nyan eh. nakuha po pang umatras pakiraso kaya nga gulong ko sa right ay sumandal sa curb.

kung hindi ako nakaatras seguradong durog ako.

Sa akin ito na yung worst ko....

nung bago pa lang ako mag drive feeling schumy ako sa Civic ko... :hihihi:

mali yung ginagawa ko nun....mabalis magpatakbo....hindi ko iniisip yung sa paligid ko baka makadisgrasya ako.....

pero nung napapanuod ko sa balita yung mga nangyayari road accident at sa mga nangyari sa mga barkada ko eh napaisip ako na ang public road ay hindi race track.....

at sa panahon ngayon baduy na magfeeling schumy pag naka Civic or any car na below 1.5 million...Pag naka Subaru Impreza na lang ako magfeeling schumy.... :bwahaha: (joke lang....kung magkaka Impreza ako eh behave parin ako magdrive)

Hmmm. We've had at least a couple of threads with a similar title to this one. But.....

1. Dozed off along I-40 and woke up with my car jumping along the sagebrush between the lanes.

2. Hit a stretch of black ice on a downhill and almost slammed into an accident scene at the base of the hill.

These weren't really life-threatening. But, they were quite embarrassing when I was younger....

3. My dad's car (68 Dodge Dart) stalled in the middle lane right across the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas (during high noon traffic). Everyone was yelling and screaming at us with horns honking.

4. My dad's car (70 Ford Pinto) stalled right after paying the toll on the entrance to the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. I think there were just one or two toll gates open (at 2 am) and we blocked one while waiting for a tow truck to tow us to Treasure Island in San Francisco bay. Again, people yelling and horns honking.

san francisco earthquake in 1989...i was riding my motorcycle when all of a sudden, my bike just started swerving uncontrollably. i still can't figure out how i stayed upright thru the whole thing.


again, in san francisco...i got caught in a very heavy hail storm and it scared the heck out of me 'cos i couldn't see a darn thing. all i could do was stop the car and let the storm pass thru. luckily, it didn't last long.

I was riding a delica space gear. it was a nationwide transpo strike 4 yrs ago. baguhan pa ako sa pagmaneho. I did't realize that one of my tire was deflated because of those damn tire traps people made... I only notice medyo un-even yung balance nya, peru it didn't come to my mind something is wrong, kasi baguhan nga. the road was wide empty because of the strike nga, kaya naka-enganyo magpabilis... while driving in a straight "bilis" 80kph, I transfered to another lane, then I just hear the tire scretch, the tall van feels it's going to rollover. I panicked and my first reaction is not to go against the direction because it might roll over. so the van went to the opposite lane. but there is this island between the lanes with flowers and coconut trees. I hit a coconut tree and dragging it in the opposite lane. good thing there are very few cars on the opposite side.

buhayin ko lang ito... worst driving experience ko kanina lang nangyari...

pauwi na kami coming from a family friend's house... sa lugar nila, nag-umpisa nang umulan ng malakas then after 20 mins. of driving naging sleet of ice na, tapos 15 mins before we getting to our place naging snow na.... we were at the carpool lane kasi gusto kong mabagal ang pagmaneho and I was driving 45 mph ( actually, di ko alam kung mabilis pa ito)... between the carpool and the shoulder lane may 4 lanes sa freeway... while stepping lightly on the brake, kasi feeling ko napapabilis ang van kumakanan ang van without me steering it towards the right... napi-feel ko talagang mahina ang traction ng van namin pero di ko inakalang mag-360 spin sa gitna ng freeway... grabe!!! parang di ako makapaniwala... habang nagi-spin kami iyong 2 naming anak tulog... tapos, ako nakahawak lang ng mahigpit sa manibela pero di ko ini-steer.... nag-flash sa akin - ang realization na kasama ko ang buong pamilya... tumigil ang van sa gitna facing the right direction... ewan ko ba may guardian angel kami kasi habang umiikot kami sa freeway walang dumarating na kotse as in malinis ang kalye... tapos ng tumigil naman kami ang bagal ng dating ng sasakyan kaya nai-drive ko towards sa shoulder.... para mahimasmasan...

sobrang hagulgol ako... buong mag-anak ko idina-drive ko.... di ko alam ang iisipin ko sa sobrang takot at nerbiyos... puwede kaming mamatay right there and then sa gitna ng freeway....

up to now, after 5 hrs. and while writing this para pa rin akong nanlalata...

thank God for keeping watch over us...

whew!!! iba ang salubong ng New Year sa amin... I pray and hope it gets better for us...

ps. [SIZE="1"]what do I have to do with our van after taking a slow spin?[/SIZE]

thanks and God bless us always!!!

LOL.... What a coincidence pareho pala tayo ng experience yan din sana ang ilalagay ko. Glad you post it.

Ako, everytime may nasasalubong na umo-overtake na truck or bus sa provincial road...Kahit mali sila dapat na lang ilagan kesa mapatay tayo

Two things to remember when you are in a skid, first, do not step on the brakes and second, never step on the brakes...hehehe, not even a light tap on the pedal. Just point your steering wheel to wherever direction you want to go (this is why the 10 o'clock-2 o'clock grip comes in). You only apply your brakes when you have already total control of the vehicle. On a 4wd (shifted to 4hi of course) you'll be surprise that a tap on the accelerator could also get you out of a skid. I'm sure the rest of the forumers here, me included, are glad to know that you and your family made it out safety.
