Default Rear Ended Again

Well back in February 2011 I was rear ended at a stop light. Welp, deja vu. Sitting at a stop light coming home from work and bam. Doesn't look that bad on the outside, but this one hurt a lot more. Bent the **** outta my license plate and popped the left rear side marker out.

What the hell hit you?
That really sucks, but it doesn't look like there is too much damage at least.

Lady in an SUV. She said she was turned paying attention to her baby daughter in the back seat.

It's always the women.. Every single time I've been in an accident it's NOT been my fault and it's always been a freakin' woman driver. Same with my friends too. Or it's their girlfriends or wives that are going around being stupid hitting people. Sorry about your car man I know it sucks

I wonder if there are statistics somewhere that list % of accidents caused by women vs men to validate my experiences.

Every time I've been in a near accident - it has been a woman or somebody in a big jacked up truck.

Hey, at least it doesn't look that bad from the outside. I had to look for a bit in order to see the damage.

The fact is most people have their heads up their asses when they get behind the wheel.

You shouldn't have kids if you can't drive...
If people followed that, the birth rate would drop considerably, lol.

Are they gonna write for a new cover?

Hm so I was doing a bit of searching to figure out the stats and.. Well we cant just go by how many die each year so this is what needs to be calculated:

- How many female drivers vs male drivers
- How many miles per year the average woman drives vs the average man
- Then calculate how many accidents are the male and females fault.

Then break that down into % and we get a realistic number of how often a woman causes someones bumper to contort vs men.

This might take a bit...

Next Facebook status, and possibly sigged.

Oh, Ninefooter, try to see if you can break that into fender benders. I know - or at least a reliable source has told me - that men are more likely to have a wreck at higher speeds/cause more damage.
