mine was self inflicted but still pissed me off. after the 5-speed swap I didn't want to mess around with the neutral safety switch so I wired a toggle to the starter solenoid. long story short after working on my car in the bays at sears (when I worked there as a tire buster/mechanic) one of the guys left the car in gear. I NEVER leave the car in gear. so I reached in, turned the ignition on, flipped the switch and i got one hell of a ride into a center post and wheel balancer. crushed my front bumper, dented the hood and if this would have happened 10 seconds sooner someone probably would have died. I was very lucky, and so was he.
moral of the story - pay attention to what you are doing :beer:
