Woah...that was close!

I was just driving down Highway 60 in the East Phoenix
Valley (Arizona) and I failed to notice that traffic
was stopped up ahead of me in the right lane (yeah...I
even drive in the slow lane).  So...with a split
second decision to side swipe any car next to me...or
hit head on with the rear end of an expedition, I
quickly made the decision to swerve...seeing as how at
65mph without a seatbelt in a vanagon would most
certainly mean instant death.  So...I swerve...and
luckily...no cars to the side of me...even though I
thought the van was going to tip from the sharp turn I
made (luckily I just put in newer stiffer shocks)!  As
I drove on...wondering exactly where I got instinct
like that after only 3 years of driving...I thought
about how easy it is to die in a Vanagon.  I love my
van to death...literally...but they are very dangerous
vehicles.  They don't really seem to dangerous until
you have a brush with death in one...So...needless to
say...I learned my lesson about driving fast in the
slow lane...instead now...i think i'll drive slow in
the fast lane...mostly just to piss people off...not
really for safetys sake.

please...everyone...drive safely...be aware that there
is barely anything in front of you in case of a head
on collision...and...wear your seat belts...it's the
least you could do...thanks
