Got in a car crash

So, i was leaving work and the second stoplight came which was campo rd in Spring Valley, Ca. I stopped and there was a lady in front of me. I saw there were many cars in front of her. So as the light turn green cars started moving at a steady pace and a car in front of her just surprisngly stopped quick, so she stopped, and i try to stop all the way but my brakes couldnt handle such a frequent stop.
So we pulled over and we fully inspected the cars and thank god! nothing happen to both of our cars. No dents or scratches.
Thank god. Pretty much the most scariest thing alive.

And i can say hands down Tsx is a really safe car.

wow, you sure lucked out. Don't assume that you know what other drivers are planning. Next time you'll be at-fault.

I think the scariest thing is seeing blue lights flashing in your rear view mirror. My throat dries up, and I start to feel panicked. I do this even though I can probably get away from it. I've only had one accident before, and it wasn't scary at all. I was driving down a road near campus while it was raining lightly, and there was a car at the T-intersection up ahead to my left; he was waiting to make a left turn (to go in the direction I was going). He didn't have his license with him, and the car was his girlfriend's. Anyway, I saw him from a block away, and he didn't budge at all...but then when I was finally at the intersection, he suddenly juts out....my car slid about 2 car lengths before we hit each other...

Watch yourself..... If the only time you have ever had encounters with the police was RIGHT AFTER you did something wrong, you don't have the authority to make statements like that.

When some dude rear ends you and the officer writes him a ticket, does he still suck? When the officer catches the jerk that stole your stereo out of your car, does he still suck? What about when he races like hell to get to the accident your girlfriend was in, just to make sure he can help someone he doesn't even know?
