Was driving on the country side road on a beautiful day, big truck drove by and dropped a placard just as we meet, the noise scared the living hell out of me , looked in my rear view and saw the car just behind me getting it right in the face of his car. I missed it by a second, would have been disastrous, for sure the body would have been smashed up.
Go figure I go out of the city to avoid s*** like that !!

I've copped a sheet of plywood (about 3' x 3') at about 50 kph, slowed down from 100 when I saw it come of the truck.

Still managed to catch him, and the company paid for all of my repairs.

Against my better judgement and let my brother drive. The power scared him to death and what did he do? Pulled back on the steering wheel and "pedal to the metal"! I reached over and hit the fuel pump switch and shut it down. When he finally came to a stop, he was so visibly shaken that he had tears in his eyes. He just proved to me why no-one will ever drive the car.

So he went rigid and froze?
