Jimmy Fallon is at it again. For his recent #Hashtags segment, Jimmy has asked his viewers to share their biggest car fails. And oh Buick, did they deliver. I think it's safe to say that all drivers want to forget their dreadful trips to the mechanic ASAP, but when there's a chance to achieve temporary TV and internet fame... They tweet their funny accidents to Jimmy Fallon for the whole world to see.

Sometimes when I'm out with my husband, I forget which car we drove and end up walking to the wrong car.

Let's just hope that they haven't done it while driving. The numbers highlighting the dangers of cell phone use while driving are just scary. To be clear, at any given time throughout the day, approximately 660,000 drivers are attempting to use their phones while behind the wheel of their automobile. There's no need to mention that it's causing many car accidents daily.

Smartphones have made it incredibly easy for us to stay connected at all times, however, that doesn't mean we should constantly check our Instagram feed. The National Safety Council reports that drivers who use cell phones are four times more likely to be in a crash while using them. "There is no difference in the cognitive distraction between hand-held and hands-free devices," they said.

According to the council, cell phone-related road accidents account for about 27 percent of all crashes.

Much attention across the country has been focused on the dangers of using cell phones and other devices while driving. In 2016, there were 444 fatal crashes reported to have involved cell phone use as a distraction (14% of all fatal distraction-affected crashes). As a result, 486 people died.

If you find it hard to stay away from your phone, there are a few things you can do before turning on your car's engine. First, silence your phone. Then, put it away and keep it out of arm's reach. Don't worry, all of the notifications will still be there when you pull up.

One of my very first cars, a beat-up old two-door Saab, could only be opened from the outside on the passenger side. I visit a friend who lives in a rather narrow street so I park really close to a wall, get out, lock the car - and only then realize that I do not have access to the other door ... Facepalm! Eventually, with maneuvers worthy of a comedy show, I managed to squeeze in through the trunk.

If that was the 8th mailbox to go, perhaps the mailbox owner needs to reconsider the placement of the mailbox!

I had a friend who once thought her radio smelled a bit funny in her car and pulled over. When she got out of the driver's side and walked around to check on the passenger's side, the car burst into flames and burned the car entirely out. She then got a replacement car and managed to hit a deer the week after. Some people have no luck.

for those of us who grew up with boys... this is actually a pretty good, quality prank. No damage done... just confusion for a while.... and the image of 4 of your mates being dumb enough to literally lift & carry a car around the car park. I'll admit that at first, I would've been pissed... then would've been cracking up once the car was found. (and then plotting how to seek revenge!! ha!)

my firends and i did something similar to another friends recently restored mini. We picked it up and turned it 90degrees in his parking spot so it only had an inch of space front and back, then we waited in the pub for him to come out. he looked really confused

When I was 16 I worked nights at a fast food place. My mom and stepdad thought it would be funny to drive to my place of work and using the spare key drive my car back home. A coworker drove me home and I saw my car. My step dad asked if I thought it was funny; I told him I filled a police report.

My football coach in HS had the same car. We did this to him but put it on the field. My wife always thought I was full of c**p until we ran into one of my teammates at a bar a few weeks ago and he started talking about it. lol

Each guy would have had to lift 400lbs for this to be true. A festiva isn’t that tiny. Most men can lift between 50-250 lbs so I’m gonna say either they used her key and told her they lifted it and she still believes it, or they had more help than 4 guys.

My father and his friends, back in the days when he was young, picked up a car and lifted it onto a tiny pedestrian bridge in their village. Car and bridge fitted that well, it was impossible to open any door. It was the top village gossip for weeks.

Had a friend in high school that drove his parent's old VW Beetle. We were both in swim team, and one of the favorite jokes was to push the car somewhere strange and see how long it took him to get it out (he had just gotten his license and wasn't quite used to driving stick yet). I may or may not have helped his sister park it between the goal posts on the practice football field one afternoon...

I had one of those! My sister would worm her arm in the wing window, open the door. I'd come outta church to see my 12yr old brother behind the wheel. Put it in neutral and she's go-cart pushing it around the parking lot!!😜

LOL, I have a friend who, in college had a VW Beetle (the real one). One night, while at a party at a friend's house the guys went out and put Lin's car up on blocks. Later that night she came out, got in her car (never noticed it was a tad higher off the ground) and tried to drive away.

In high school, my husband and his pals went outside at lunch and turned their friend's car sideways in the parking space.

When I was in high school, a football coach had a mini pickup truck. A bunch of players picked it up and slid it into the entryway of the gymnasium. When the tow truck was pulling it out sideways, both axles broke.

Some of my dad's friends moved a co-worker's VW Beetle to the top of a staircase while he was working.

Funny story but i don't feel like its true, even the small economy cars are 1600 lbs or so. Drag it sideways maybe but not moving it like its a toy...unless she worked at a Gold's Gym.

That's not a car fail. It's just a bunch of a******s for coworkers.

It's like that "how I met your mother" episode with the "I will walk a thousand miles" song being stuck in the tape deck. (now going to youtube the buttermilk biscuits to better understand your pain)

I had a bad habit of playing music way too loud, and didn't realize the car behind me had ran into me (lightly, maybe) from behind. the bass tremors were too strong for me to differentiate. it was only at home I saw that the rear skirting/bumper was gone.

That's a corn snake, will be someone's pet. Very unlikely to hurt anyone. Most certainly won't kill anyone 😂

When we had a VW, my "seat" was in the tiny crawl space, because the dog got his own seat and my brothers would try to squish me if I sat by them. Yeah, I don't talk to any of them now, but the dog and I were always friends.

We had gone to Ikea and got a bunch of stuff. 4 people, full trunk, and a bin remained. I was shotgun, and rode home with that huge bin over my head! Plenty of room!
