Check out this encounter with a 2x4. Scary to say the least.

I thought this was posted before, anyhow I wonder why or for that matter how many people drive down a highway with a camera going? The 2by coming thru the windshield might have been something they weren`t counting on happening.

The lady got her five minutes of fame with this. She was on TV and said she started videoing the two trucks because she thought they were screwing around and wanted to report them. Maybe she should have backed off a little and paid attention instead of videoing.

I had seen the woman on tv this morning. Was she having road rage that she needed to video instead of driving, if their is a lawsuit, hopefullt the video blows her case out of the water. Watching the video,it seems she is following to close, 1 second, now they say you should be 4 seconds behind the person in front of you.
