Dumbest thing - leaving the garage at the office - waived my card over the card reader and pulled forward, the card reader failed and the parking arm hit the windshield and I promptly kept going forward luckily the arm had soft rubber bottom so no damage! What a dumbass!!

Ok probably the dumbest things was to try (yeah i know, idiot) to see if the sunroof has the anti-trap feature ... on my fingers. Guess it doesn't and i was really lucky i had only bleeding fingers...

Another one was when i was so furious when a truck came from the other way on a single lane road and stepped wth the outer tire on a big sharp rock hitting my bumper first with big velocity and then going airborne, i slammed the brakes and it landed on the hood braking into smaller pices and after that in my windshield. Lucky the windsheild was ok but the hood and bumper were heavily dented. In the hood you could see deep dents like lion claws Anyway the truck didn't stop and from the shock i got out of the car to see the damage than furiously turned back on pursuit of the truck and i kept the pursuit at high speed on 2-3 roads but get this...he other way. I was simply driving at 100+ km/h in the city the other way like in movies with cars swerving aside. Then i realised it wasn't worth it and turned back. So stupid that on the moment i didn't realise much worse things could have happen in the mad pursuit of the truck, like an ugly car accident far worse than a stupid damaged hood. Plus i didn't really know where i was going cuz i lost contact with the truck and i was simply going on a goose chase, guessing at every turn.

So here is it. Plus driving at 190km/h+ in the city one night at 2am, slightly racing i addmit. Stupid i know. It didn't happen again.
