Bit offtopic. It would've gone in style though, as the car I almost t-boned (or hit head-on) was a Jaguar XK8!
Happened on the freeway last night. Three lanes in my direction, I was on the leftmost. I was just considering moving one lane to the right when I spotted the Jag on the rightmost lane rapidly closing in on slower traffic. I decided to stay left to allow space for him to change into the middle lane.
But instead of just changing lanes he braked and lost it, spun across all lanes and bounced off the guard rail right in front of me. I saw him coming, braked hard but as I looked straight into his remaining headlight I felt I wasn't going to make it so I let off the brake. I was JUST able to steer between him and the traffic on the rightmost lane. It all happened in a split second. Me and the Golf escaped without a scratch but when I looked in the mirror I saw the gap had already been closed behind me, as he came to a stop sideways across both the left and center lane. A split second later I heard a bang, probably some other poor soul couldn't avoid him. I called 112 immediately (our equivalent of 911) but kept going, figuring plenty of people would stop, whether they wanted to or not.
Later on the radio I heard all three lanes were closed down because of the accident. I have NO idea how many cars were involved eventually, but I'm sure I made a very narrow escape there...
