A mailbox! Oh, the horror! I hope the neighbor got all his mail!

I ran over my own leg with a 3-wheel ATV. When they first hit the market, they were really bare bones, no safety features at all. The rear tire gripped my pantleg and would not give it up. I went with it and rolled off the vehicle and it just rolled over my leg. No harm done. The ATV was yellow.

Whatever it was, I can assure you that the status quickly changed from 'important' to 'oh well'!

I ran over my cellphone because it fell out of my pocket when I got into my car. As I pulled away, I noticed it crushed in my driveway. Then I laughed. I hated that cellphone.

maybe - well i thought i backed over a cat - well the story is, there are stacks of stray cats in my neighborhood and one morning i got into my car and was getting out of a spot, and as i pulled out i swear to God in my rearview i saw this cat lying there writhing. i freaked out and drove off, but called my sister to go check... She assured me that no such thing had happened. she may, quite likely, have lied to save herself from months of my anguish... i doubt i'll ever know.

I share a very steep driveway with my neighbour. My neighbour's dog Chloe used to sleep on the driveway, but when you start at the top, it is so steep that you can't see what is in front of you. Normally Chloe would move if she was there, but Chloe was going deaf. I ran over Chloe, she survived for another year.

It still haunts me to this day, and it's hard to even write about it.

I was really high, and swerved to avoid a turtle and squished him...I still feel guilty

A dog. When I was in driver's ed class they made a big deal about slowing down and looking both ways before you cross railroad tracks, even when the gates not down. Who does that? There was a hill with railroad tracks halfway up and it was dark. I slowed down to look both ways and ran over something big. I was really freaked out and turned around at the top of the hill to see what it was. When I saw the dog, I almost threw up. I went to the grocery store and called 911. They said the dog had been there for some time and they were sending someone soon.

No, but my babysitter ran over my foot in her VW and broke it when I was 12. I later found out she was having an affair with my dad.
