Nearly met my demise last night! (Details inside)
 
So I was driving up to Truckee with my Roomate last night, to get some sushi. As we came around a semi-blind turn, I see the subaru outback in front of me slam on his brakes, and veer off the road. this is no more than 100 feet in front of me mind you. There's no way I'm stopping so i veer to the left lane, (while braking from 75mph) and narrowly miss a huge ladder and some pales lying in the road. The STi's ass end pitched out just a little, (enough to make the tires squeel :shock: ) which feels like a lot at that speed, however, just a bit of throttle input and it straightened right out...Looks like the Outback hit it and didn't suffer too much damage, but definately a little. I didn;t know this at the time, but two trucks ended up wrecking there soon after, Scary. There was no where I could safely stop to see is the subaru was okay, so I hope it all worked out...Today's lesson...Always look ahead everyone.

What I want to know is, whose the assclown that loses all that shit off their work truck, and just leaves it...could have killed someone.

Glad to hear everyone was okay. Whatever moron left his equip. there in the road needs to be kicked hard.

If you get in an accident, dibs on the drivetrain. Glad you are ok though, I guess. :P
