ChrisL Posted January 9, 2017 Share #3 Posted January 9, 2017 Sometimes in the moment, you don't realize how close you came to death.... But it hits you later.... I had a bullet pass within inches of my head once and at the time I was reacting to the situation and although I knew it came close it really didn't register. Later when I saw the bullet holes in my patrol car it dawned on me how freaking close I came to getting killed and you kinda get the chills... I'm sure it hit him later or if he ever saw that video. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentonMakes Posted January 9, 2017 Share #4 Posted January 9, 2017 When I worked at the supermarket I was driving there after school, on a windy day after a snowfall. I was on Route 43 coming west out of West Sand Lake - the road was dry but I hit a patch where snow had blown across the road, and although I had taken my foot off the gas, the rear of the car started to slide left, and I ended up spinning through 270 degrees, landing off on the right where fortunately there was a wide open driveway. In so doing, the driver's side of the car swept through the opposing lane, and if another car had been coming I imagine it would have been lights out instantly. I know I was very lucky in several respects. An hour into my shift at the store I could still feel my legs shaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Posted January 9, 2017 Share #5 Posted January 9, 2017 when you are as old as Road Runner there's no point in getting fussed up about a close call like that. Just another day wearing a truss in the neighborhood 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffJim Posted January 9, 2017 Share #6 Posted January 9, 2017 I've had 2 close calls as a pedestrian recently. Not sure if either would have been fatal, but I cringe to think how much pain and rehab I would have been in for - one of them would have broken my thigh, and the other probably a leg or two.

You won't even hear the screech of tires with the stinkin anti-stop brakes they put on the cars now. They will just plow you down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc2000 Posted January 10, 2017 Share #13 Posted January 10, 2017 That guy wasn't even using the brakes. I don't see any skid marks, and even anti-lock brakes would leave some. It looked like he was on the gas the whole way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
