I had to think rather hard to remember this one, so I guess I've been lucky to not have many dumb accidents...

Since I'm single, I a lot of times become the hotel for wayward guys separating from their wives. I was hosting a co-worker about 15 yrs ago. My two cars were in the garage and his pickup was about half way down the driveway so I could get either car out.

It's Sunday morning and I'm going to church. I get in the car that's in the same lane as the pickup. I start the car (my 79 Mustang Pace Car) and see it's got no gas. Dang! Shut it off and run up and get the keys to my 2 yr old 97 Probe GT. Now I'm behind schedule so I buzz out of the garage not thinking about being careful. Bang! Hit the side of his bumper with the rt qtr panel of my car. Crap! It just put a mark in his bumper that I was able to buff out, but did quite a bit of damage to my car. I was so pissed. He was paying me some modest rent but whatever he paid was now going to go out the window as my deductible. I told him he was out at the end of the month.
