    Terrible Thunderstorms here today.

    Coming home from picking up my Wife from work,the traffic stopped suddenly in pouring rain.

    The Guy behind me,in a 4 wheel Drive,musn't have been paying attention.

    He saw me stopped,and he had no chance of stopping in time.

    He was doing prob about 60KLMS P/H.

    He swerved off the road,to miss me,lost control,came back on the road and smashed into 2 Cars in front of me.

    My near new Car, didn't get a scratch.

    Indeed,my lucky Day. :)

    Think I will buy a Lottery Ticket, after that one.

    Hi Dougie,

    Your lucky day indeed. Glad to hear you and yours are OK. Not so lucky for the people just ahead of you.

    Hi Ken. He would have buried my Car into the Car in front, the speed he was going.


    I still can't believe he missed my car, when he swerved.

    He has come back onto the road, and side swiped the 2 Cars in front of me.




    Hi Barry,If  we win the Lottery,we will share it,and spend it quick.

    I would hate to cause my Children,investment worries when I'm gone. :snckr:

    That's great, Dougie

    Not that there was an accident .... but, that you weren't part of it.

    But, Wait! I may have an email here somewhere saying You are already a Winner!! How lucky can you get. :lol:

    Staying out of that crash WAS a lottery win... and so much more, huh?
    And no one will be asking you for a piece of the action, either. haha

    Wow, lucky indeed and I'm so glad you nor nor new car was injured, Doug - and really hope no one in the two cars struck was injured either!
