Here's one, I wasn't involved, but my dad was. We were living in VA at the time and he was in the Navy. Anyways, we was on his way home (I think, it's been awhile since I've talked to him about it) and get into a front collision with someone. According to my mom, the reports said that the engine crashed in and broke his femur (the strongest bone in the leg) and he suffered brain damage. Was in a coma for about 3 weeks. I was about 7 years old at the time and my brother about a year old.
11 years later he is much better. Can walk on his own now but there is a noticeable limp though and some of the scars are still there. He just got his license back, but we still don't have a car yet. Overall, he is doing really good though.
I didn't want to be a downer or anything, I just tend to get a little more serious about car accidents. Glad both of you were able to walk out of cars though.
