Some standing water and so much water its hard to see on the highways. I've seen more lightning in 48 hours than I saw in 20 years in Oregon. Had a quick but heavy hitter around 5 am today here in Cbus. Assuming you got it up there as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy rain, freak storms and even tornadoes. Had a freak lightning strike on the Spectrum cable line today and experienced a burst of electricity in the air thru the wifi about 3' from the PC...........like a large static electricity pop. Computer screen didn't even flicker but cable wifi was out for about 3 hours while Spectrum repaired. I guess maybe the wifi is actually slowly microwaving us.

And declared that Garrett wasn't actually in the car at the time of the accident, he just climbed in afterwards because the comfortable seating in the 911 was exactly the thing to help him with his tweaked back. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they didn't buy it he would have probably said it was a racist animal. He doesn't do anything wrong, he's always the victim. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyMannn Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 I heard he swerved to avoid a deer. That's always a sure way to get in a worse accident. Just bury the brakes and steer straight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, I was in an accident, flipped 4times, walked away with a minor cut in my arm and some muscle soreness. Believe it or not, the impacts that stop you hurt FAR more than flipping, that’s not a ton of impact really, you just kind of bounce along. Landing on the roof made in a ditch made it more of an adventure to get out, but all three of us had nothing more than scrapes and bruises. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, no. There are some steep banks there, swerve for whatever reason and you can head over the opposite side of the road and find yourself coming in an angle, the front of the car hits and momentum takes right over. Speed helps, but you don’t need to be doing 90 to send yourself flying. What actually happened, IDK, but for his sake I hope it wasn’t a road blowie, he might have some unreported damage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's deer season in that region. Not out of the question at all. I nearly died mutliple.times omw back from bills games, swerving to avoid deer on the way to Virginia in Western PA.

Could be but you can flip your car without going 100 plus. I had a similar situation twenty something years ago going about 65 in a 55 in the rain on a country road where a deer popped out sprinting from some high grass. I didn't want to flip my car like Garrett so I just braced for impact without turning the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would early deer season have to do with whitetail prevalence along that stretch of road? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't swerve and possibly kill yourself or someone else. And he's driving a very fast sports car where you just touch the throttle and you are going over the speed limit. I don't buy his story.
