I am fine and my car is fine.
Tonight a pickup truck, who’d already been driving aggressively toward the jeep beside me, pulled into the turn lane behind me and failed to brake effectively.
Because the road was wet from a quick downpour.
So I look in the rear mirror and see him swinging in to eat beside me at an angle. Like I/ where I am the I and he is the / (but he was more midway back than typing here supports).
At this point I am already freaked out and now he’s sticking out into traffic and anyone who hits him will hit me. So I make an illegal U-turn.
Fortunately I have a dashcam. Unfortunately it doesn’t capture most of what happened but does capture
1. the sound of him revving at the guy next to me
2. My graceful stop at the light.
3. My sudden swearing and pulling forward into the intersection.
4. My “what the FUCK” and just making a U-turn.
5. My journey back to where I’d been about to turn
