I just got back from a driving lesson (I'm 42) and had a very close near-miss on the highway. I saw someone in a truck trying to merge on the highway before the slower van in front of him did --he swung right in front of me but suddenly decided to slow down!!!! I had to lean into the brake to avoid hitting him. Squealing brakes and all!
So many crazy people on the road--I feel like I'm a magnet for this kind of stuff. I've had to "just keep driving" but it isn't easy!!
