Almost lost my truck yesterday!


Recommended Posts

Coming home from the weekly trash run about 5 miles away.

I just missed a head on not a 100 yards from my house.

Had to drive in the ditch on my side of the road to miss the SUV.

SUV ran down the ditch on my side of the road, across a driveway and into the air, took out a mail box, more ditch before coming to a stop in another driveway!

I turned around to check on the driver, who had a little one in a car seat in the back seat.

Driver choked on a hash brown and passed out a little.

Thankfully all were ok but the mail box & post but it could have been UGLY!

As you know it can happen in a second!

Wow! So glad you and the other driver and kid are ok. And your truck. :nabble_smiley_good:

Yes, it can happen in a heart beat.

I was on my way home from SW Florida this afternoon and came across a rollover that had just happened a minute prior to my arrival (I didn't see it happen). There were a few people trying to lift the car (it was on it's roof so I assumed entrapment), so I pulled over and ran to help once traffic was clear. By the time I got to the car, everybody was out, so I just checked to make sure the car wasn't on fire. Once I saw the sheriff's lights in the distance, I left as there were already enough people on scene.

Glad you missed the accident; it happens so quickly.
