Quick evasive maneuver, a distracted diver (someone on the phone) would have made the situation worse, you have good driving skills!

Wow that was a close call and nice reaction to avoid an accident.

BTW do you have a dash cam installed and if yes, what do you have?

Thanks for the info. I want to get a dash cam and this one has gotten some really good reviews on Amazon.

BTW did you hardwire it or plugging it cigarette lighter/DC 12 volt?

How do you like the Vantrue? I just picked up a Thinkware 800 Pro with a hardwire kit. Running it from the cigarette lighter in my current 335i until the M2C arrives. Seems to work pretty well for me.

Nice curve..

My method is to 'pretend' everyone else on the road is stupid and about to act according.. So I'm also always in defensive mode, expecting a situation like this..

Also, don't forget to decode the Euro spec flashing emergency brake light, so the jackass tailing, with his is one baby piston caliper, doesn't slam into you..

Good save!

What was up with that civic though? Why did they stop like that?

I have a front+rear hardwired dashcam as well, where I live it's pretty much a "must" for insurance claims. I got a Blackvue.

You need to edit her vocals out with some mixer app. Hilarious sounds.
