    I had a terrible experince today. I was driving home from school like everyday, but today it's a bit snowy, and such outside. No big deal I drive my usual 45 mph on a 30mph road. xD

    I'm going straight, and the car in front of me STOPS. Im still going 45 mph.


    So I slam on the brakes, I SLIDE about an extra 100 feet I'm sure form the snow. My car stopped, 1 inch away from the car in front of me.

    Im still shakin.

    If my car wouldn't have stopped, ah I could have easily been majorly injured/died.

    Im never speedin again!

    Happens all the time. Don't speed when it's snowing though, that's your own fault.

    I almost ran over some kids getting off a bus on the way home. The backroads were really wet and the bus was stopped right around a sharp corner, didn't even see it until I was right on it.

    When you slide like that, just pump your brakes. You'll be able to steer resonably well, and you'll actually stop faster. If you have ABS it's supposed to automatically pump the brakes, but it doesn't always work.

    Same Dale, i nearly get run over alllll the time, twice a day.

    On the way to chool and on the way home, its a very busy road and its either stand there for ahges freezing my arse off or make a dash for half way.

    Ive been verbally assualtedmany times but just give me the old victory V back

    Nah, I don't have ABS, my car is to old. I couldn't really think it was in the moment. I got really worked up. xD

    I'm glad it happened though, I learned alot from that experince.

    i always go on the country roads when its snows When you get about 6 inches its prime time to go sliding around. Its scary to lose all control of the car. I slid probably 200 ft once sideways, very scary.
    This is me.

    Every near death experience i've ever had i've been very casual afterwards, and usually blame something else other than myself for it- even if I am at fault. I honestly don't care about them really.
