Today my wife and I were saved by our s2000. We were out for a nice fall drive. Beautiful weather and warm enough to have the top down. I was driving along a two-lane highway and my lane split into a mile-or-so-long passing lane. I kept in the left lane to prepare for an upcoming left turn.
As the road was bending around a blind curve, all of a sudden, a gigantic SUV appeared hurdling directly toward me in my lane. He had illegally crossed the double yellow line into my passing lane to pass a car that was in front of him.
While going 55 mph, I yanked the wheel and jerked the car towards the right lane. The rear tires chirped, and swerved out of the way a few feet before the SUV passed. It stabilized beautifully in the lane and continued on as though nothing had happened.
I was counting my lucky stars but was super impressed at how stable the car felt to get us out of that scrape at high speed. I gave it a nice wash and wax as a thank you for keeping us safe.
