Dec. 14th, 2017 05:20 pmI almost got into a serious accident this morning.
I was in the left lane (I usually drive in the middle/right lane) because I had to get my daughter's Christmas gift out of the Amazon locker near my office. There was a semi in the middle lane and I always do my best to give them a fuck ton of space. As we approached where the road we were on crosses over a tollway, he turned on his left blinker.
I figured he wanted to move over into my lane so he could turn onto the tollway so I started to slow down. Then he started to slow down. So I started to sped up because he obviously wanted me to get in front of him before he moved over.
Only I was wrong. As I approached the cab part, he started to turn. I just barely managed to turn without hitting him or the median or any of the curbs.
Once my heart stopped trying to beat its way out of my chest, I got pissed off. He knew I was behind him because it was after 5 in the morning so it was dark enough for him to see my headlights.
