Drove my car around in pedal dance mode. Spun 8 times, barely missed a bunch of nuns crossing the street. 2 wheel drives cars and trucks were flipped over and burning everywhere, almost lost it going into the garage. God was looking out for me, did not crash.

Isn't that a scene from Fate Of The Furious?

Got a call from SJPD today. They won't press charges if I promise not to drive in pedal dance mode. I have to think about my family first. I agreed. Should have listened to @humfrz.

Was going a few over the limit and distracted and had to slam on my brakes to not run a red light today. Was scary, still a bit shook up but did not crash.

Went on a 300km road Saturday morning, arrived at my destination did not crash. Drove back the same distance later in the evening, didn't crash either. Thank god I didn't need to stop at a gas station, that could have been dangerous! (Gas light just lit up this morning at 605km!)

Was that really from Fate Of The Furious? Nah, don't tell me. I enjoyed your version. No sense ruining it.

Well, folks, we have returned from our adventure over the mountains and into Indian country.
As we were heading out of Yakima, on a wide, straight, 4 lane, divided highway, in broad daylight some jerk just about made it a very bad day for us. While we were cruising along at the speed limit of 60 mph, this big, ugly, pick-up truck pulled out in front of us, trying to cross the highway. I saw him make his move and I swerved to the left into the left lane ..... he kept coming ...... I cut it more to the left into a paved cross over area in order to avoid a collision. By that time I had cleared the front of the truck was heading for the center median. I took a chance (of not over correcting) and cut back onto the road, just barely clipping the side of the median. DAMN ....... that happened FAST! The A-hole just kept on going ...... I don't think he saw me coming at all ...... It happened so fast, mrs humfrz didn't even have a chance to scream or flail her arms ....... nor close her eyes! Afterwards, she complimented me on my keen eyesight, quick reactions and maintaining control of our car. I was truly impressed about how quickly and how well our FR-S maneuvered around a very dangerous situation and recovered without losing its footing! WE DID NOT CRASH ! humfrz |

Drove to Montauk Point (the absolute east end of Long Island NY right before you plunge into the Atlantic Ocean) and back. 200+ mile round trip and no accident!
