phew! i almost got involved in a three car collision on my way to work in sf.
after the down sweepers coming out of cadicut(?) tunnel on 24, there was a red grand am in front of me and a silver cts in front of that. i was just cruising with music blasting and um little bit high :x but anyways, i start seeing smoke coming out from the car in front of me so i say oh ****, his braking....HARD.
the red car zooms by the cts like his gonna hit the car on his right.
i'm coming straight at the cts, as i get closer, i get harder on the brakes and at the last minute i turn the wheel to the right like i'm climaxing in choking the snake and dodged it to the right by maybe half a foot. ending up with having my driver's door next to his rear right bumper, luckly no cars were behind me but that was 70mph to oh ****, traffic pile up.

no contact was made so no fcking drama, right on.

after all that i realize how relaxed i was...thanks to my "breakfast".

x_x damn that is close! good thing nothing happened.

one time i was pulling ahead of a truck that cut me off on the san ramon back roads (curvy like fish ranch road) and it was only 2 lane, two way road. so i glanced over and so no cars coming (didnt notice that there was a turn coming up so even if there were one coming, i woudlnt see it) so i sped up and right as i was next to the truck a Car turned the corner and was right infront of me. xD the truck braked, i downshifted and floored it, the car freaked out and went to the side of the road, and i sped it out of there. @_@

2am driving hee hee

another time i almost went off the edge of fish ranch road. it was 3am, i was in a hurry to get home, i was tired, it was pitch black, and i never been on fish ranch before, so i had no idea there was a cliff edge >.< i hit 40 on one of the outer hairpin turns and my whole side turned out into the opposite direction lane. i got really close to the edge. i got ride of my eclipse navi after that @_@ ill stick to the roads i know lol
