I have been reading all the posts about those crappy drivers wrecking our rigs... Now hopeing this wont ever happen to me or anyone else but... Last nite I was driving home from dinner at our daughters home... Great dinner and friends. I'm in double overdrive doing around 75 mph just like the traffic is .... I'm in the lane 3 of the 4 offered when this white 4 door import suddenly turns left just up in front of me so hard that smoke is coming off the tires. So I'm testing my hydroboost brakes and my friends dog takes flight under the dash. This car then turns back so suddenly with even more smoke burning off the tires towards the crash rail... Then it overcorrcts and now is traveling across all 4 lanes of 75+ mph traffic. Now I'm easily missing this white missle but... The red ford suv just starting to pass me on the left wasn't so lucky. I hear a crunch.. Then the white car hits the center concrete barrier hard... So there is another crunch sound... Then a huge thundering crach of metal sound... I'm thinking someone in the fast lane hit the white car doing around 75 plus mph... Now "parts" are flying everywhere in front of me... Its like someone just hit a pinyata and all the candy is flung everywhere. Now the red ford suv is still right beside me on the left going the same speed as me. I start slowing down but so this guy is doing the same thing.. I finally slow wnough and the suv gets past me... The left side of the suv is a mess... The front end is ripped up. The left tire is throwing crap and the left tail lite is broken out. Just as this suv makes it to the right side of the freeway something big that looks like a black shoebox jumps in front of me... I was able to straddle it and miss it. Now everyone is pulling of the freeway... I gather my thoughts... The dog now jumps into the back seat hiding from whatever is going on and I'm doing about 20 mph now about 100 yards from the mess behind me. I finally felt it was done and drove on. I know some safety and am ver good at cpr but... This is California. Its not uncommen for someone that stops to help ends up being sued for it. I'm not so sure anyone survived the accident. The sounds were not compatible with life. I do plane to go in to the chp and offer up what I saw happen. The 4 door white car didn't have anything in front of it. That car was just about 2 car lengths up in front of me. It was like someone was fighting for the steering wheel or they had a stroke of something hot spilled in there laps. Waht ever it was it was the drivers fault. I'm not a driver that will drive next to another car for very long nor will I allow another to pace right next to me... I always want free travel to both sides of me. As this was the red suv was just starting to pass me and I know I was doing right at 75 mph so they had to be doing more like 85mph by the speed at which they came up on me... I watch the rear view mirrors too... Both of them.. How I got thru all this is a mirical for sure. I looked the front of the truck over but didn't see any damage.... It was really like the big one at NASCAR....
