Near Death ExperiencesLast time I crashed my bike, as I flew through the air towards the car in front of me not much went through my head apart from "You idiot". No tunnels, no lights to stay away from, no smiling family members beckoning to me.
Surely you've had a better near-death experience?

Why my future driving lessons will be carefull...Lots of these seem to be about cars this week...
Well, i was a little nipper at my uncles garage, as he was a mechanic, and the task was to get the car from one end to the other. So I sat on my uncles lap (being just able to touch the pedals at this age) and was told to press the accelerator "gently". Not really knowing what i was doing, i instead "floored it" (These are the words used whenever the story comes up in family conversation now). So off this car goes heading towards the wall at the opposite end at high speeds, until my uncle took control again in time to brake hard. Who knows what could have happened to the little unseatbelted nipper on collision..
