Default Bum Clenching Moment of the Day.

Well we have Smile of the Day, Gripe of the Day, so why not Bum Clenching Moment of the Day.

On the way to work this morning, travelling on a single carriageway national speed limit. So doing about 60 ish. I am at the back of about 5 cars waiting for a chance to pop past. Suddenly the cars dab their brakes. This in itself wasn't the terror moment, I was safely back from them (learnt that lesson!)
It followed very shortly after. I wasn't expecting what followed.
Coming the other way at about 60 mph was a petrol tanker. As it came alongside the car in front of me from under the car appeared one of the dirty great hoses off of the back of the sodding thing!
Bum Clenching Moment of the Day.
There wasn't a lot of time to react. Thankfully said hose was quite squishy as I was anticipating the speed bump from hell. What with a combined speed of over 100 mph. I'm also glad the metal end clasp missed my left hand side by about 2 foot.
Hopefully no one died on their way to work due to this ****wit.
