I'd be more interested in seeing how many accidents people have gotten into.

I've only been in one while in the driver's seat, and it was extremely minor considering the circumstances.

Driving on a busy road with a 50 MPH speed limit. The truck in front of me stops dead instantly without their brake lights going on--the lady driving had rear-ended the person in front of her at full speed.

I slam my brakes and manage to stop juuuuuust short, her trailer hitch just lightly dents my front bumper.

About a week later, my insurance agent calls me to let me know what's going on. The lady tried to claim emotional distress for me hitting her, but the cops interviewed a witness who saw her on her cell phone, and based on the whole "her rear-ending someone without slowing down at all" thing and how minor the damage on my car was, I was let off the hook.
