That Idiot Stalled On The Highway Was ME!!!

OK, so it didn't catch on fire. But, my vehicle did overheat this morning, stalling at the end of an exit ramp, about 2 car lengths back from the red light in the right turn lane. I don't know if it's that difficult to distinguish between flashing hazard lights and a right-turn signal, or if people just hadn't had their morning coffee, or both. What I do know is that I was almost plowed into at least 6 times before I could get it restarted. The semi truck that came within 6 inches or so of my rear bumper was the one that finally got me to fling open the driver's side door and jump out. That was a close call.

So, now my car is sitting in the parking deck at work, in the near-zero temperature. It will sit there all day. I will add coolant before I leave for home.

I will pray for survival.
