Helen / Canada
speaker Yes, I have actually. It was just shortly after I got my driver's license 1. I was driving in a parking lot and I was going through a small intersection 2 and I looked to my left, and there was a car coming towards me and it was actually going a lot faster than I thought, so it basically 3 slammed 4 right into my car. Thankfully neither myself, nor my sister were injured.
Amir / Iran
speaker Yeah, I had an accident when I was nine years old - a car accident. I stole a key from my mom and I drove this car although I couldn't reach the pedals 6. I had to go down and reach the pedal 5, come up and then look at the window to see where I am going, and I hit the garage of one of my neighbors, and so hard that the door was fallen and I was ... the car was under the garage. That was my accident and it was scary because a few minutes earlier, children were playing there and their mom asked them to wear socks because they were going to a party and as soon as the entered the house this accident happened, so they were screaming, I was screaming. It was scary.
Lindsay / The United States
speaker I have been in an accident one time. I was making a left turn, and the car hit the side of my car. It was coming straight at me. I shouldn't have made the left turn. It was completely my fault, and we had to pull over, and my car was ruined, and the front of their car was ruined, and the police had to come. And I was really shaken up. I was only actually sixteen at the time, and after that I decided 7 to become a very careful driver and I have not been in an accident since.
Paul / England
speaker A serious accident? OK. When I was in Thailand, I rented a motorbike for the day with my girlfriend actually because we were planning to drive to the other side of the island to do some diving.

speaker Yes, I have actually. It was a car accident and it wasn't very serious but it was supposedly my fault, although I tend to disagree, but I was pulling out into a busy street and I didn't see that there were two lanes 8, and yeah, the car came up and hit me on the side. That was it. It was my fault. I had to pay.
