Yeah. They crusty ol supraheros o' the past. Them all fell off the planet this week.
Got all introspective or some junk.

Didn't crash tho

I backed out of a parking spot in an empty lot. Didnt hit a thing. It was scary though

Drove to the body shop and back home, did not crash. Today was a good day!

Sooooooo, does curbing a wheel but otherwise arriving at your destination unscathed count as not crashing?

Yes.

I managed to clock 300 miles in and around Detroit this week. Pretty much everybody else seemed to crash but I was OK. Still crash free.

Seems about right. Nothing to see here folks, move along!

As a preface, I always drive with the nannies 'OFF' and always will...

Yesterday, on the way into work, I hit a patch of loose material all over the road surface (basically equivalent to hitting a patch of gravel) WHILE turning in under an overpass at about 30ish mph in 3rd gear. Saw it just before turing in and while understeering in, applied corrective oversteer to avoid sliding into the concrete curbing since I was in the outside lane. DID NOT CRASH, even stayed in my lane too...but that traction light was having an epileptic seizure under the overpass...LOL 2nd gear would have been better to be in, but third was okay even if skirting the torque dip area. If the nannies were 'on' it would most likely be a different story...
