How did you know which one to use?

What do these mean?
1. I don't want to get in an accident.
2. I don't want to get into an accident.

What do these mean?
1. I don't want to get in an accident.
2. I don't want to get into an accident.

In this context, 'in' is short for 'into', which means, movement towards:

EX: I'm getting in(to) the car.

To me, on Hotmail means, to use Hotmail (i.e., It's a tool: I am on the phone ~ I am using the phone), whereas in Hotmail means, inside the site itself.

EX: In(side the) Hotmail (site), where is the inbox key?
EX: On Hotmail (i.e., an internet tool), where is the inbox key?
