I had just turned left onto my sidestreet and I see a school bus coming in the opposite direction towards the stop sign.
"Hrm, he's going at a pretty good clip, and it's icey", I say to myself.
Sure enough, the driver panics and locks the brakes. What do I see? Big school bus ass sliding sideways into my lane. Ok I better move to the right. Not good enough, the school bus ass cometh still. I have huge grader snow drifts on the far right, taller than my wheels but it's that or eat bus. Within inches (I could have reached out and slapped the bus) it misses, I'm almost crashing into the snow drift, but come back out. Bus driver puts his hazards on, I get out to make sure he really missed me. He sees I'm out and so he drives off. What's weird is the whole thing was in slow motion (normal for near crashes) but this time, I swear my heartrate didn't budge. I get more anxious when I see a cop car.
No damage for me - watch for those drivers people.
