I was nearly in an accident like this, when all of Rt 80 got shut down and deverted to side roads. I was stopped in traffic behind 1 semi in slick conditions at the bottom of a downhill slope. I look behind me to see a set of vibrating headlights. I locked the wheel to the right and jumped into the grass just before an 18wheel with all its wheels locked up slammed into the back of the 18 wheeler I was behind. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> This was in my Subaru so I have 100% confidence I wouldn't be posting if I was hit that night.
