I'll start with a scary experience I had about 5 years ago. I was in the passenger seat in a car traveling southbound on the freeway. My friend and
I were traveling along at about 70 mph at 11 p.m. I was half way asleep when all of a sudden the car swerved over so quickly I thought we were going
to crash. I sat up very quickly and tried to figure out what was going on as my friend regained control of his car. I yelled, "what are you
doing", and my friend told me that someone almost hit us head on. As he's telling me this I turn my head and see two taillights heading the other
way. I watch the other vehicle until I can see him no more. If I had to guess I would say that he was driving just as fast as we were. I don't know
why but we soon started to laugh uncontrollaby, not because we were happy though. I think we were laughing to deal with the fact that we nearly
avoided a horrible car accident. I then asked my friend what kind of car he thought it was that almost hit us. He beleived it to be a full-size pick
up truck. Let's see here, we are car A traveling along at 70 mph in a four door sedan, here comes car B driven by either a drunk, someone asleep at
the wheel, or a crazy person, traveling along at 70 mph as well headed straight for us. To make it that much harder to avoid, we were rounding a bend
when my friend swerved and almost hit this pick-up truck headed right for us in our lane. Anyways, that is the one of the scariest things that has
ever happened to me.
