Close Call
So, fun day, I was driving to Food Lion and almost got T-Boned....
I was making a left hand turn, and when I was stopping I noticed something in the road looked like water, didn't give it a second thought. So the light changes and I go to make my left hand turn but as I was turning instead of doing a 90 degree turn, it was a 180, I was turned around and facing the way I had just turned from, luckily the truck behind me slammed on its brakes and stop. I promptly hit reverse and turned the right way after he had stopped, and Pulling into the grocery store shaken, and get my soda and stuff. I come out and notice there is something all over my passenger side. I wiped it off and smelled a bit of it and it was Kerosene. I know what it smells like. I preceded to go back by where I had almost wrecked and noticed again the darker spot in the road, you could see where all the cars had gone through it. So I called the Cops because I was concerned at that point knowing it was not my error that caused that. They came and checked the spot in the road and told me it was floor wax. The cop even smelled it, I mean you can't mistake the smell of Kerosene. So I promptly left, and if that in anyway messes up my paint I will be going down to the police station to file something, I don't what to do if it messes with my paint, I mean that took my name and number when I called. I am angry because the cop lied to me and also shaken because I almost got T-Boned. Can a mod move this noticed I posted in General, should be in Not exactly SVX ty

Must have been "dump crap on the road day" today
Got backed up in traffic on I-26 for a diesel spill. Glad to hear you made it out without a scratch. Now go wash the car!

 It was kinda funny at first because what was going through my head was "hmmm..... My car shouldn't be turning like this" Then my brain kicked in and hit the brakes.
