Well I don't think I'll be a lot online this weekend, but still maybe I'll do a couple of sorties and I dont want anybody to think I am a silent stupid.
Today I had a quite serious car crash. Has been a hellish wind and raining day here and I was just returning from Santander and my car lost adherence on the after wheels in the middle of a Curve, in the highway. It crashed on a side and started spinning.
It turned over its vertical axis two or three times (can't recall it) and ended facing rearwards in one extreme of the highway, just at the exit of the curve. I was terrified while it happened (thought I was going to hit a concrete wall there was, but avoided it by a hair).
Only to be more terrified , seeing how VERY fast cars were coming out of the curve and just found my stopped car there and avoiding it by centimeters...
Thankfully I went out untouched, and a police patrol happened to pass there after a couple of minutes...we got the car out of the highway and from there onwards everything went better. The fact that I was quite slow when the crash happened (no more than 50 mph, maybe less) saved me (in spain the highest speed level is at 120Km/h, and I was going at some 80-90Km/h). I shiver when I think what could have happened if I had gone faster.
Dont worry about me I am quite OK phisically...not so my car (neither my nerves). But I want a bit of relax now and if I go online will be for a couple of sorties only...I'm not on the mood to talk, frankly.
Thanks for your understanding. I hope that tomorrow I'll feel better, for now I am going to take some sleep.
