Yup - been there, done that Posted by RS [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: My baby was a total loss, swede-murphy ![]() ![]() |
It really peeved me when a semi took out my SPG.
We really need to keep our peripheral vision in top form for driving (which reminds me that I need to get new glasses.) A few years ago, I had a black Pathfinder (this is etched in my memory) shoot across 4 lanes of traffic from an onramp onto I-85 - if I didn't catch him out of the corner of my eye and pull into the lane on my left, he'd have nailed my car.
One of my friends was a pilot with his instructor rating. He told me one thing that I've applied to driving (especially here in ATL): always scan for a place that you can land. Here, I always include my drivers side mirror in my visual scan to see if the left lane is free behind me, just in case the driver entering the road doesn't see me and I need to make a reflex avoidance.
