RE: Fender Bender

We say bumpers not fenders so don't really use the term fender bender, and usually say a prang.

However Sam Fender is from the North East of England, a Geordie and I like them. I like his music too.

We tend to just call them "accidents", but there are always a few who say fender bender.

I don't mean to be the "ack-chually" guy from the meme but the fender is a panel on the side of the car that has no real purpose other than aesthetics between the bumper and the door and damage to it is usually easily just bumped and buffed out. it isn't at all involved in the operation of the car and perhaps that is how a "fender bender" became known as an accident that isn't that big of a deal.
