Coming around a curve in the road cars were backed up behind someone waiting to turn left into a driveway. The shoulder was taken by people trying to drive around him. I took my eyes off the road for ONLY a few seconds and the next thing I know I am faced with a choice of veering into oncoming traffic or becoming friends with the ditch on the right side. I ended up clipping the corner of the bumper of the person in front of me. He was nearly stopped and I was doing 40-45 mph. At the last second I yanked the wheel to the right, lost control of the car, and ended up in the ditch. I missed a telephone pole by about 3 feet.

Be careful everyone, drive safe, and keep your eyes on the road.

 

Wow. Good luck for you man I had a close call in the rain last night. I felt like I was in F&F: Tokyo Drift...

 

Someone rolled into me at a stoplight... this weekend was full of asshats.

 

Everybody be careful out there.

 

Glad you are OK
