Second one was changing lanes while someone else was doing it at the same time, except he must've been doing like 80mph I the 55mph zone. But we couldn't see each other and it was a genuine mistake.

Third one was some massive turkey in the middle of the road. HUGE. It was downpouring and I couldn't see it until the last minute. Then it tried to fly away and flew upwards near my windshield, but thank god I missed it because it probably would've cracked my windshield. I slammed the brakes and swerved. Stupid turkey!

About 1 minute after that, some oblivious DEER jumped out in front of my car, on the same road. You definitely don't want to hit one of those since they usually go flying through your windshield and can kill you. Had to swerve and slam my breaks for that one too. Not sure if it got blinded by my headlights, as it was about 6:30 in the morning and somewhat dark.

Also, some moron at work accidentally deleted my work lwst night and now I have to redo it today.

All in all, unluckiest day this year.

So sorry. I hate driving for all those reasons and others too. Like when I'm too manicky, I will do risky driving stuff without even realizing it until someone blares a horn and/or I get into a fender bender. Though to be honest, the last one, we were both turning left, so the police ticketed neither of us. But the other lady had the sun right in her eyes, and I think she drove through the lines of the parking lot she was leaving, which was bigger than the lot I was in. She even said it was her fault when we hit. Because it was a busy road, people on their way into work, the police made us move the cars off the road before they even arrived. We both had pictures, but it did no good. Messed up my car more than hers since hers was much bigger. Sigh...at least it is driveable, passed the state inspection last month, which I was a bit nervous about with the front end damage. When I was having that problem with forgetfulness, one day I even turned the wrong direction onto a one way street. Luckily, it was at a time the road wasn't that busy (still plenty of people honking at me), also lucky, there was no cop around. I had just been going on auto-pilot, dissociating a bit.
