Lived in the country growing up.and had 2 instances like these within a week or so of another. In one case, a guy ahead of me decided he was going to dona u - turn at an intersection which requires slamming on my brakes. The other was an idiot running a stop sign and me having to.get in the ditch or i would have t - boned him. Those were some major white knuckle moments for me.
What amazed me was how many of the people involved in the close calls just calmly kept on walking or whatever like nothing had happened. Either they're remarkably calm individuals or totally oblivious to their surroundings!
I have had more than a few close calls in 50 years of driving. Once, when applying for car insurance with a State Farm Agent, she asked if I'd ever had any accidents. My reply was, "Well, I've been in at least six of them. However, I never hit anything." It took me a couple of minutes to explain that to her. Hey! I was being honest with her!
As far as the second video... I've seen many a male "driver" do some REALLY DUMBS**T things behind the wheel.
There is a big difference between just pointing a vehicle down the road and actually DRIVING a car or a truck.
And, in 50 years of driving, I've been in only one accident... I was hit from behind at an intersection.
