I've seen this more than once. The last one occurred as I was driving out of a parking lot and turning onto a two lane street coming up to an intersection of a four Lane Street. Two cars. Collided and one was pushed almost into me. I guess I've seen it enough times that I just kind of sat there and waited to see what was going to happen since there was no place for me to go. The car that was pushed came within about 3 ft of mine but then stopped and that was the end of it. In terms of movement. I jumped out of my car since traffic had stopped and went to the car that had been hit to see if anybody was injured. Luckily nobody was entered in this accident in either car. Traffic started moving again fairly quickly and I drove off knowing full well that without injuries the police would simply not show up. Not in the area where I live. They don't bother.

I was younger with my sister and friend. We were taking my mom to a dental appointment. This elderly man wrecked his car into these gas pumps and it started a fire. The fire department, police, was telling everyone to evacuate the area. I tell you from that day on I was sick to my stomach due to seeing that and to this day all I can see is the elderly man being put in an ambulance and pretty sure he died due to a medical emergency.

I have caused a car crash! Well it was one car, my car, colliding into a small decorative tree in my neighborhood bc I was doing something w my water bottle instead of paying attention, I was 16, I was a block from my house, I ran home crying, the car was totaled, and people still make fun of me for it sometimes.

Other than that, I have driven past some crashes that looked really bad but I haven't seen a crash up close.

A few dozen over the years. Three in one day once. People in DC can't drive.

A few. And I’ve had to crawl in a few to pull out the injured. Being that close to sudden death is heavy.
