I ALMOST DIED

Ok so i woke up at 7:50 to go to work right. And i work over in Kansas City, MO which is about 15 miles or so away from my house if you take 435. So it was snowing but not that bad, there was snow on the ground but it wasn't that slick. About halfway there, all of a sudden all i could see was white. My car was sliding and i actually had to use both hands to drive (rare occasion). People all around me were slowing down because u couldn't see ANYTHING in front of you. It was all just a big white blob of nothingness. Then all of a sudden i see brake lights come on in fron tof me.

I tried to slow down, but i just kept sliding. I was pushing down on the breaks as hard as possible but it was like it had no effect.

On the side of the road there must have been atleast 10 cars messed up from getting in accidents in this one spot alone. There were people on the opposite side of the highway you had also fallen into the trap of this particular part of road. People had fallen off the side of hills where rivers were, there were cars mangled up in front of off ramps, Vans no longer looked like vans but those funny japanese delivery trucks that make u wonder where the engine is.

Then a Taurus decides he's gonna switch lanes in front of me while i was sliding everywhere. i Turned my steering wheel as far right as i could, and i was still going straight! The guy in the ugly orange truck behind me must have thought he was going to hit me, cuz he barely stopped in time. I swear it was the scariest thing ever.

Then when i finally got to work, ten minutes later, my mom called work asking if i had made it. Apparently about 5 min after i left that scene, there was a 50-60 car pile up in that spot. People just kept slamming into eachtoher not knowing what was going on. Then they closed the highway from around 8:30-11 so that they could get all of the cars out. I think of myself as a lucky person. Plus i didn't have my drivers license or anything on me.

I konw that if i still had the super bad tires i had on my car in November, i'd be dead right now. And if i didn't know how to drive correctly, i would have been very badly injured.

Just wanted to let everyone know about my close brush with death today. it was very eventful.
