I passed out while driving and had an unfortunate love affair with a cement divider at 80mph. Am a bit banged up and very, VERY sore...car is perfectly fine, damn thing.
Thats awesome! I mean about the car...and you not being too badly hurt. Or dead. Not the passing out part. I hit a sign and spun into a ravine and my poor baby car had pigeon toe.
I know, especially since it's mum's car. Bloody thing must be made of rubber.
Actually, I'm guessing I slid against the cement barrier at an angle, which, while banging me around, didn't hit the car too much. *shrugs* dunno, honestly, I was too busy steering myself back into a proper lane and not hitting other cars to pay much attention until the end of the trip.
I'm just really glad all those years of reading driving manuals and watching documentery's kept this from being a bigger problem (such as hitting other cars or spinning out my car in the middle of a freeway).
