Megalowmatt: I've been trying to replay it pretty much since it happened, to see if I could figure out what went wrong. I was stopped in the lane, probably just left of center waiting for the light to change. When I started moving, I probably took an inside (shorter) line, because I've never had a car do this to me before, so it didn't occur to me. I'm going to have to be more possessive of my lane, and sacrifice my line, obviously.
Jr59: yeah -- I felt alive. My heart sped up and my blood got hot!
Chandltp: I guess I think of "near miss" opposed to "far miss" but who cares about a 'far miss'?
