Glad is wasnt serious. It is wild to see that happen. During some poker runs, have seen several run off the road for no good reason and in all cases just really had to shake my head.

After thanking god that I didn't kill myself, I think I would have felt so stupid that I would have lied to you saying that I hit something in the road or something.
