Default Re: Almost head on collision

When I see things like this happen sometimes I wonder. Yeah easy enough move to the left of the lane and keep going but what if you stayed in the middle of the lane? And this person piles through you like nothing? How much would it hurt? What would he get sent to prison for? Would you still be alive.

What if on moving to the left you hit a big pot hole or drain etc and crash?

It's a scary world sometimes and when you have a scare how come something else always happens in the same journey?

Next time, pull over & stop. Get your phone out.

"Hi, police please. I'm on the Axxx, heading towards <town>, and I've just seen a car going the other way, it looks like the driver is drunk by the way the car was all over the road! He overtook a car coming the opposite way from me & forced me off the road, breaking my indicator. So I turned around & followed him, but when I saw what his driving was like I stopped for my own safety."

That's brilliant I tried my hardest to get a reg, looked like a Vauxhall Astra but it was very, very dark. Otherwise it'd be done.

Remember to take yer off first though... You do feel a bit silly putting a phone up against the side of your lid with a *bonk* ... I know I did

if you phone the American embassy and tell them you saw bin laden driving a x reg astra southbound you can follow him and wait for the Apache helicopters to swoop in over the trees and take the mother out!!!
