Default I almost bought the farm this morning.

I'm going to the gym. It's about 4:50 AM. I'm on the eastbound 210 transition road where it merges with the 134, two lanes and two curving tunnels. In front of me on the left is a semi and on the right is a dump truck, together, both going slow. The dump truck is going a little faster. I wait for the dump truck to pull ahead enough that I can cut over in front of the semi and get by. There's a gap, I accelerate, and just as I'm about to change lanes, both trucks hit the brakes hard. Thick smoke from both trucks' brakes and loud noises. A semi was stopped on a blind turn in a tunnel. ABS did its thing and I missed the rear of the dump truck by about a foot. Damn!

Yeah, I was a fighter pilot and my reaction time is still pretty good.

Yikes! Luckily you didn't slide into the truck on slippery road like the grease on a high schoolers face who ate too much fast food
