Icy Car Crash

Did you ever see one of those winter accidents? You know, the ones where it’s the snow’s fault? Or the ice’s fault? Driving in the ice and snow should not be approached like regular driving. Many people try to pretend like slippery roads don’t bother them so they drive extra crazy. Black ice is a [...]

Car vs. Brick Wall

It is kind of difficult to determine if there is a winner here between the car and the wall. Both have considerable damage, and both could possibly be repaired. At first guess I would say that it’s a tie. Considering the after effects, there is a good chance that the wall will work the same [...]

Rolling SUV Crash

Did you ever try to stand on your head? Didn’t you hate all the blood rushing to your head? Or did you like that? I’ve never tried hanging upside down in an SUV, but it certainly doesn’t look fun. The top heavy design of SUVs and some hatchbacks just don’t allow for jerking the wheel [...]

Car vs. Tractor Trailer

I’ll give you one reason why you shouldn’t cut off a tractor-trailer: It’s bigger than your car. No one likes being in the shadow of a truck and we all try to race pass them. Sometimes we forget that those trucks can’t break as quickly as we can. I don’t [...]

Need a garage?

The only time I’ve hear about a car ramming into a house is because some thief was trying to avoid the cops. Is stealing a car and trying to evade the cops really more intoxicating than alcohol? It was probably the fastest they ever drove in their life. I can’t imagine insurance covering recliner chair [...]

Bumper to bumper

There’s nothing like a fresh dent in your beautiful convertible. Sometimes people just drive too close. Tailgating is one way to say, “If I can somehow latch on to this car in front of me, I will get there faster.” Just in case there’s a hard stop, back off a bit, will [...]

Top 10-list for February

February isn’t all about hearts and roses, or being sure that you have the perfect gift for that special someone, although that may help your relationship. But that won’t make a difference here at Total Car Crashes because we don’t care if you got your girl a gift or not we just want to be [...]

A Dragster’s Car Crash

Imagine having a vehicle that can do over 200 miles an hour. Now imagine driving at that speedand not crashing. I’m sure we have all seen the photos of Nascar, rally racers or other racecars slamming into walls, other cars, and getting completely smashed to pieces. I really don’t think I would have ever had [...]

A Side Slam

I’ve seen some major head on car crashes, I’ve seen some major rear-end car accidents,I’ve even seensome major cars that have beenwrapped around trees and poles. But I can’t say I’ve seen too many major side crashes. Yet, what is harder to imagine, then the pictures of the crash itself, is the fact that those [...]

Getting the Worse End of the Stick

When thereare two or more cars in an accident someone usually gets the short end of the stick, just as was displayed here in the photo. It looks like the station wagon was the one who got the short end of the stick on this crash,while the suv had any problem making it out of [...]
