Driving up the road to Sugar Bowl in a blizzard in our Honda Civic. This light pick-up truck came spinning down the hill. I got the car as far over to the right as possible, and the truck missed us by inches.
Actually, the most hair-raising things happen regularly in city streets when I go to make a lawful turn and I realize that someone in a "vehicle" is going to run the red. That always leaves me playing tape for twenty minutes about whether, next time, I should speed up, back up or stand still so that my door takes the hit instead of my kids'.
