Too Close -
Well - Took Miss Purdy for a run to downtown Dallas that started out to be a nice trip. After a few of the typical morning "Big City Accordion" traffic cycles we were all moving along nicely. But just as I topped a rise all I saw was a progressive explosion of brake lights coming right at me. Luckily everyone near by was able to stop safely but up ahead a Dodge double cab pickup rear ended a Range Rover that will never be the same again.
YIKES - If I’d have been in the wrong lane that Range Rover could have been Miss Purdy. That maniac pickup had been changing back and forth across all 4 lanes ever since he came up the on-ramp. For all his time saving maneuvering, the traffic was cross threaded with Police, Fire Trucks and Ambulances for almost an hour - and he won a tow from a wrecker. Almost a parts car - Michael :( |
Whew! Had me sweating.

Drive it enough and eventually it will get hit.
Don't drive it enough and why own it? This message brought to you by the beater 928 owners of America. |
I was doing 80mph in my red '85 944 once when three deer crossed my path at full speed. I locked up the brakes and cut through them just after the second deer and the last one. I thought the last deer would take out my quarter panel, but it just bumped my rear bumper. It did no damage at all. Not even a scrape, but the incident nearly sent my 944 to meet Jesus and I had to change my jockey shorts when I got home.
