    So... I was coming across a bridge that connects PA to NJ the otherday around noon, when the guy next to me, his hubcap comes off and is rolling next to me. Thinking to myself "I am not letting this DBags hubcap hit my truck" I speed up to find the 18 Wheeler about 25 feet in front of me is locking his brakes up and starting to jackknife on a 2 lane bridge. So with KnightRider fast reflexes I decide to floor it and get around him, because I just noticed there were 2 other big rigs right behind me. As I start to get pass the trailer I look in my rearview and see the ass end of his trailer slam into the wall I just drove past and then see the tractor start to come around, so I put the hammer down and squeeze through the front of his truck and the wall, just to find 2 cars that had just got into another accident, stoppped on the bridge directly in front of me (most likely the reason he was slamming on his brakes). So without freaking out I split the difference right between them and blow past. I Look into my rearview and see the big rig hit both the stopped cars.

    Needless to say I stopped my truck after coming off the bridge and checked to see if I had hit anything or maybe shit my pants... Neither had happened. :eek:

    Whew... I love my Taco!

    After ensuring said pants were not shit in, did you check to see if everyone was OK?
