Personal Narrative: How I Change My Car

So... yesterday after Audi service helped me change my car's oil and did annually inspection, it turns out that there was a nail in my tire. My best friend Yuri Chung, aka my personal expert car engineer, helped me with the tire. Although I thought fixing a car is troublesome, but it could not be compared to yesterday car accident.

While I was driving home, I got into a huge car accident on highway 24, involving 4 vehicles. Out of the 4 cars, my car got damaged the most.

So, here's what happened: I drove out of a tunnel coming back to Berkeley. There was an instant stop in front of me so I stopped my car just in time. But then a car behind me could not stop. That Toyota crashed into my car from behind, pushing my car to hit a car in front

    When I realized what had happened I started to sweat bullets and my friends had such a shocked and mortified expression that it just made me more terrified. I backed the car up and went outside with the others to see the damage that the crash had caused and I almost wish I had not gotten out. The whole front bumper of the car seemed broken and I felt my hopes of it being “just a scratch” crash and burn inside me. We parked the car near the gas station to try and see what we could do to fix it which was almost nothing. The manager of the station even came outside and told us “just put it in the trunk and go!”…

    I am equally sure that it has taken years of my dad’s life from the stress I have induced. If I didn’t learn how to drive this morning, I would have to cancel picking up my girlfriend later that evening.

I put my foot down firmly on what I now knew was the clutch, then put it into 1st.…

    My first car was something that I greatly was looking forward to getting as a child and my interest in getting one grew, as the days got closer to my sixteenth birthday. The first car I owned was a Automatic Black 2004 Ford f-150 truck, which I discovered on a website called Craigslist. It was priced at five thousand nine hundred dollars with only eighty-four thousand miles on it, which in my case was great considering that I could only afford a seven thousand dollar car. The truck came with all manual locks and windows and also had a small amount of hail damage that could really only be seen at a certain angle. But even with reasonable price on the truck I still attempted to negotiate for an even lower price to further my luck.…

    I looked up to my left and saw a guard rail with a river behind it, the car was heading towards it. My sister took control of the wheel and steered us the best she could towards the ditch. It was all green everywhere as the rear of the car hit the ditch first and spun us around, sending the front hitting the ditch as well. We spun around one more time, completing two 360’s. It might have been the wrong thought, but I was thinking about the airbags deploying at top speed, knocking us in the face, and injuring…
