Actually it's not impossible, but very very improbable.

P.S. You should play a lottery/powerball ticket

Actually, they should not. That collision and winning the lottery would be even rarer.

Assuming they are independent events, OP is not more nor less likely to win the lottery now that before running in the collision. I actually have more question if you claim the events in question are NOT independent!
Inconceivable!
