Nearly caused an accident
« on: March 30, 2007, 08:47:07 PM »
I went out round the block near my house yesterday and got stopped by a couple of interested people

I live near a on ramp for a three lane road and a bloke in a car jammed on his brakes to stop and ask about them

This was a bit of a shock for the car behind who nearly rear ended him

Three people honked at me (  can't be my good looks as I don't have any )
and as I was jogging at the time waving might not have been my smartest move
that one was close but I stayed up

This it so much fun

Well there is actually a case of someone causing an accident where by a driver paid more attention to the bocker than the road and went in the back of a bus! Luckily no one got hurt.

We have printed some info cards now so if you are interested in passing the word about I can send you some out :)

Ive had alot of interested/amazed people stop and ask me "what the hell are they??" and "where the hell did you get those things from?" would be great to have a couple of cards to give out if i go into town, wont have to go over and over the same thing constantly lol What are on the cards you made? :)

yes, i was the one who posted about the bus crash on poweriser pages the car was driving along behind the bus the bus stopped at the bus stop and the car didnt look back at the road until it was to late..

noone was injured and their wasnt much damage done to the car or the bus as the driver slammed the brakes on
