Itgirls crashing thread made me think about all the close call stories...You know the almost happens that you either managed to ride out or save. I know we all experience that more times than we crash so what's your tale?

My scariest was commuting from work on a 4 lane w/ turn lane and a full size Dodge Quad cab that I am meeting decides to turn left in front of me. I hit the brakes, slid the rear, countersteered as quickly as I could and missed the trucks bed by inches. Fortunately the truck never saw me because I am sure if he had he would have braked or straightened up and we would have collided for sure. I was so full of adrenaline after that incident I could have torn his truck in half!
