well... i guess not near death, but i could have been very seriously injured...

I was casually driving down a main road and the weather was awful so i was keeping a decent speed, there was a car about 60 feet in front of me for the whole journey. anyway we get to a bend in the road and then she starts to slow down. I was like what the hell... and then like 1 second later she indicated to turn right at the very last minute. I slammed on my breaks and was a foot away from crashing into her.

i swore out loud and actually said "almost..." to my sister

then all of a sudden, I saw this car come from straight behind me on my left hand side. I thought he was overtaking me and then i heard a crash and realised he had skidded off the road. the guy crashed into a grassy ditch, his car was almost completely on its side and it was so scary.

i put my hazard lights on and pulled over and went to see if he was okay... he was fine, not a scratch but he must have been going about 40 - 50 mph and did an emergency stop. I dont know if his organs/neck/brain were okay but he was walking and managed to get out of his car and tried to call the police but had no signal.

so then I called the police and said no one was injured, but the car was in the ditch. the person said the police dont come out unless someone is injured!!!! i was like well his car is in the ditch, what can he do? and the guy replied, oh it's up to him to call someone to get it out...

anyway the guy who had his car in the ditch told me he had signal so he'd be okay and i drove off...

then 2 hours later i drove past again and saw his car getting pulled out of the ditch... i feel bad for leaving him now but god, i had no idea what to do hahaha

anyway yeah, if he had hit me, i have no idea what would have happened!

have you ever been in a car accident?
