Been in a Plane, Train, or Auto crash or had an incident in one (like a breakdown)?

I have not; there was an incident on a flight I took where the brakes caught on fire and we were stuck in the burning hot plane :rolleyes:
Our train one time just stopped randomly between the airport and millbrae..

Thankfully no accidents :D

I'm not really sure I'd call it an incident, but I was stuck in a plane on the tarmac for about an hour because of rain. That sucked. :P

Car: Once when I was younger where a truck slammed into the back of the car I was in, I was in my car seat and seat belt and some how was fortunate not to be hurt at all! The car though...let's just say that truck driver definitely paid for the damage....

Been in a few automobile accidents, one plane breakdown (emergency landing, nothing serious) and have never been in a train accident.

Planes are scary but for some odd reason I think trains are much scarier but I haven't been on one in ages.

I don't know if this counts but I was at the Australian zoo and we were in a bus/train thing getting a tour. When we were passing the open range it broke down and took 30 minutes to get us on a new one. Nothing bad really happened but there were hippos that were coming towards us and the guide kept talking about the stakes they will go to to protect their territory...

None, but once I was on a direct flight BWI-LAX, and a women had a diabetic attack. There was a doctor on board, he helped her, although we didn't have to make an emergency landing, we were held another two minutes because an ambulance and several police cruisers met us at the terminal. Other than that, close calls, but nothing else.

I got my car rear ended on New Years Eve 2011... The car ended up being a write off.

I have been in several car accidents, only 2 while driving and one of those I was at fault for and was only a month ago. I was going 5mph over the speed limit and there was an unexpected sharp turn in the road. I didn't make the turn and crashed into a rock wall and a telephone pole. Totaled my car :( - I had four passengers and one falsly claimed that they were injured and now I am stuck with their medical bills. Not fun at all.

The first one was when I was in 5th grade, a truck slammed into the back of our school bus.

The second one is when I went to a rally in down town Chicago. The bus that I was in broke down in an ally. We had to wait hours until another bus came and the only source of light that we had was from an IHOP sign.

I was like seven years old, I was in the back seat of my dad's truck coming home from school, and some old lady rear ended our truck. No major damage to either cars, I guess. Just prolly a dent and paint got exchanged.
Now, my mom got in a pretty nasty accident, she got wedged under an SUV, but that's a different story. (everyone from that's alive, hakuna matata)

Other than that, no other crashes, thankfully. :D

Been in a car crash before, a guy ran a red light and t-boned us in an intersection, everyone was fine but my dad's truck and the other guy's suv were both write-offs but the guy who hit us' insurance paid for it.

Well I've been in minor car accidents, where one hits another bumper, this and that. Train, well probably not, the only thing I remember was it being delayed b/c a broken down train was blocking our path. Finally, again never been in a plane accident, but remember back in '09, our plane broke down, on Friday the 13th! How freaky is that! That was sure an interesting day and it was hot.
