My husband and I were driving home from a city two hours away, and since it is a drive that I have done many times in my life, I sat back and read a book.
Not even an hour into the drive, I felt the gravity of the car veering and I looked up from my book to see why my husband was pulling over. Unfortunately, my husband was NOT pulling the car over. When I looked up, my eyes saw a vehicle crossing the median and veering into our lane--each of us doing 70, head-on. Luckily, my husband doesn't use cruise control and he keeps a cool head, so his quick thinking put our car into the ditch, narrowly missing the man coming at us.
When the other guy ditched and while we were all talking to the police, the man said he had a blackout and didn't remember what happened. Much to our fright, however, the cop just told the man to get to a hospital, and let the guy drive HIMSELF away. Very scary day (and I don't really read much in the car anymore.).
