My new car saved my life today on the way to work.

Some idiot wasn't paying attention and pulled out in front of me on a back country road and when he saw me and slammed on his brakes he was right in front of me taking up the whole lane. Luckily no one was coming from the other direction and I was able to serve around him. It all happened so fast it's like a blur.... I believe that in anything other than my BMW I would not have been able to react and move around him in time safely, and would be laying in a hospital bed right now in bad shape :/

Another reason I love BMW!!!!!!!!

Glad you didn't die, good thing he stopped and didn't try to make a similar move.

Thank your BMW, but it was mostly your instinct that saved you...

Wow, glad that it turned out ok and you and your new Bimmer are alright! Had this out on a road test after tearing into mom's Jeep, and was able to miss the idiot who pulled out, but I def. had the beast working. People REALLY need to pay attention when they are on the road more so then they do!
