[QUOTE="ever, post: 1773991, member: 37267"] this happened to me about 6 years ago which left me a phobia about driving on highways at night. I was driving my father's iswara from a wedding in Kangar heading back to Penang. In the car was me, my boyfriend and my parents. It was late a night approximately 11 pm plus. I was on the fast lane but was not going that fast, approx about 90 to 100 km.. As I was driving, a car in front of me suddenly swerve to the left, apparently avoiding something on the road. To my shock I saw a big lorry tyre. As I was driving not too far away from the car, I did not have time to avoid the tyre. I drove straight ahead jamming my breakes and my car flew as I banged into the tyre. Somehow, despite all that happen I managed to control the car as I landed with a big impact. It was quite a panic in the car with my parents shouting and as though everyone of us is hanging to dear life. I mean we were practically flying and I realise that it was crucial for me to control the car as soon as it landed. The damage has been so great that the engine was damaged and the car came to a halt. The irony of all this was "why is there a big tyre on the road?" Soon after a personnel from Plus came by to help. One the guys explained that apparently our car was the 3rd car who was unlucky enough to have banged the tyre. I was shocked when I heard it and questioned the guy "Why the hell is no one helping to move the tyre?? Are you waiting for the 4th 5th accident or until a life is lost??? Well, I was really mad at that time. Now when I look back,, it is just like a dream.. for the fact that my car did not turn turtle, that I did not bang into the side divider, that I managed to land my car nicely and have a good control over it. I knew with a deep sense that me and my family have been blessed to come out unscratched. [/QUOTE]
