Yeah, I was a little freaked out... it was one of those slo-mo situations... In the space of like 1 second my mind was like
"is that guy turning left there?"
"that's not a good idea!"
"maybe he's going to turn into the left lane and not block mine"
"nope, that ass is going to totally cut me off!"
"there isn't enough room for me to stop in time"
"I'm going to have to ditch over the curb and off the street"
"I better not yank the car hard right or I risk hitting the light pole over there!"
"Hey look, somehow I avoided plowing right under this guy!?!"
<CRUNCH>
"Dammit, that ass just took off my mirror!"
"Great now I'm going to have to deal with repairs..."
"Wait, WTF he's just going to drive away!?!!"
"Fuck that! I'm after this idiot!"
I very well could have been busy scratching my balls or something which would have been just enough less reaction time that I would have just plowed into the guy. Then we wouldn't be talking about just a mirror, but a totaled SVX, a fucked up truck, a hit-and-run investigation, and possible medical issues. Hopefully the company responsible realizes this as well and works with me to get things fixed up quickly. If they're not on board by the end of the week, they'll just have to deal w/ AllState.
