heh i can only do so much! guaging whether or not i can break or swerve..didnt leave me with much time to downshift. i panicked and just floored it. and lucky for me i was in 5th where itll accelerate, albeit slowly.

one of those moments an automatic would've been nice though

Seriously though dude, I'm glad you're ok! I just KNOW your heart was hammering a good bit after all was said and done!

You know what I find most amazing about these types of situations? The sheer amount of data processing your mind does at times like these. Time slows to a crawl and you notice EVERYTHING!

ahaha kenchan

but on a more serious note, yea its true, in these situations its amazing how things seem to slow down. i remember this one time i was a passenger in an accident and all i remember was a slow mo memory of what happened.
