I once found myself driving on an empty highway in the wee hours of the morning. I shouldn’t have been behind the wheel, I was too tired, and when a gigantic possum wandered out into the road it took me a moment to understand what was happening. I was young, I didn’t know the danger involved, I swerved to miss it. All of a sudden I was heading towards the guardrail, so I swerved back. This happened a couple times, and each time I had to pull harder to the left or right in order to compensate, till finally I lost control of the car and it started spinning. Fortunately, in the end I found myself just a few yards off the road facing the wrong direction. After getting over the shock, I got back on the road and continued home, now wide awake.
Great!
