I'm not a professional driver. But, over the years I've found myself in many driving emergencies where a crash was about to happen. I'll say I've been scared every time, but I've never panicked. You keep driving the car in the safest way you can at the moment.
Emergencies are always tense, stressful situations. But, I think the driver of that car was totally unprepared for anything, other than good fortune. Kind of what I said in an earlier post, he was just not on top of anything. He seems like a goofball kind of guy who thought it would be cool to drive a ridiculous car around the street. He ignored everything that was wrong with it and drove it anyway. And he was totally unprepared to handle the emergency he faced.

Lol. Yeah I used the word panic because he looked in a panic to me. I’m only here today because of keeping a cool head in an emergency. Harleys are even less forgiving than cars.
