almost crashed....twice!!!

I was driving home tonight on the 405N from playing basketball and all of a sudden a gust of wind appeared and threw me into the next lane.... there was another car just a little bit behind my car... no harm done but my heart jumped out of my chest...

Then just a little bit later, as i was driving (slow ~ 65mph) in the same direction, a Chrysler 300 with blue underglow ( ) and fart can exhaust blew past me at what must be ~110mph.... almost took my side mirrors with it...

Just think i'd share this with u guys... and be careful driving out there...

you can FEEL it...... how would you describe it?? i didn't want to write "it picked up" since u it might be confused with the wind physically "picks up" my car and throw it to the next lane....

It was more of a surprised situation.... i didn't have my hands on the wheel at the time (momentarily)... stupid i know...

I guess i didn't feel the wind because of the walls on the side of the freeway and as i reached the section without the walls, "A gust of wind came out of right field and told me i was it's bitch..."
