Default For those that like remembering close calls...

Itgirls crashing thread made me think about all the close call stories...You know the almost happens that you either managed to ride out or save. I know we all experience that more times than we crash so what's your tale?

My scariest was commuting from work on a 4 lane w/ turn lane and a full size Dodge Quad cab that I am meeting decides to turn left in front of me. I hit the brakes, slid the rear, countersteered as quickly as I could and missed the trucks bed by inches. Fortunately the truck never saw me because I am sure if he had he would have braked or straightened up and we would have collided for sure. I was so full of adrenaline after that incident I could have torn his truck in half!
