Two years back I was cruising along at 85 mph (in a 75 mph speed zone) on I-80 on this mostly flat area in the Middle of Nowhere, Nevada. Out of nowhere a semi-tractor trailer shows up in my rear view and swerved to miss me by what felt like inches. I estimate he had to be doing at least 125. He slowed down after that. I think he scared himself silly too.

  2. Wow... That's really terrifying. Seriously, that's the reason I don't drive. I know how to, and I trust myself, but I just don't trust others. They do stupid things like that. *shakes head*

  3. Oh that is scary. 125mph is WAY TOO fast, because there's ZERO time to stop to avoid an accident.
