My dad was driving my previous car back from service for me. He was stopped at a red light (for a while!) and a woman in a Nissan Xterra just drove into my poor Volvo at like 15 km/h.

When the police showed up she claimed that "her brakes had failed" but she was clearly playing with her phone at the time. With a baby in the back. Best part was because of her claiming brake failure the vehicle was taken away for testing, and when it came back OK she would've had to pay for the tow truck, the testing, AND dangerous driving charges.
