You know thoses moments where you go, "Jumping mother f**cking Geronimo, what the hell just happened?!" Well, that just happened to today on the way home and since we live on a little back road, people think that they can go fast, even when the road is wet. The speed limt for around the corner is 45, but in the rain, you have to be going 20 to avoid sliding.
I came around the corner and an Exterra in the other lane passed me going at least 40. I really didn't pay much attention untill I heard something and looked in my rear-view mirror. The cargo van was behind got hit head on by the other vehicle when it skidded across the line because the driver lost control.
I backed up because I was the only one near when it happened and as I got farther back around the corner I saw the Exterra upside down in the ditch on the side opposite of the van.
Both of them were alright and walked away, but this does teach us one thing though: Drive responsibly people!!Just because you can drive a road you know fast when its dry doesn't mean you can drive just as fast when its wet.
