Near-Wreck Experience
Porsche Passing
While driving home from work today, I again almost got run into on the I-215 to I-15 connection. This time I was behind a truck. He’d slowed down, so I did as well. I was well past the point where the three lanes merge down to two, and there were perhaps 5ft remaining off my left side to the approaching yellow line.
As I was going, I saw a red thing approaching with great speed behind me in my rearview mirror. It turned out to be a Porsche who decided that he wanted to get around me.
He whizzed by with one tire on each side of the orange line, and would’ve run off the edge of the freeway had I not slowed suddenly for him. After getting to I-15, he took off towards the left lanes and was shortly gone from sight, though I was going a bit over the speed limit myself.
A very intelligent move…
Another Close One
For the second time in less than a week, a car almost drove off the merging where the I-215 to I-15 interchange goes from 3 lanes to 2. This one wanted to pass a semi quite badly and was either not paying attention to the merging, or just didn’t go fast enough. In any case, he was forced to slam on his brakes and narrowly avoided going into the median.
The best part – right after getting to I-15, he hopped across all lanes of traffic to get into the far left lane.
