I hope he is not going to 'root it' on his first drive! ![Grin ;D](http://www.myswag.org/Smileys/classic/grin.gif)
No, not me, but a stupid cow turned directly in front of me on Sunday morning.
Going along the road from Tin Can to Gympie, we have a normal 4 way intersection and the dumb bitch was facing towards me.
I was about on top of her when she turned straight across my path.
I hit the picks and big ol girl was doing her best to stop, but I knew it was gunna be a big hit straight off.
I could see the woman's face and her look of horror, cause man, she knew as well what was about to take place.
Because the intersection has slight curve in it, the back of the car started to step out a tad and I figured a side on hit was better than a head on hit.
So I hooked the wheel to get the Caddy so slide, after all, its way narrower than is it is long. (sort of)
I knew the hit was inevitable..... but I tell ya what, everything sort of slowed down a tad like it was all gunna happen in slow motion.
i could see there was no cars coming the other way, so I got off the brakes and just ploughed nearly 19 feet and close to 2 and half ton of car to wrong side of the road and then hooked it back again.
I tell ya what, for a friggin big car, its response was pretty good.
Straight around BEHIND HER with about 3 feet or considerably less I reckon.
Corrected up the other side of her and was still travelling towards Gympie and quite frankly, fukkin amazed i'd just managed to miss her.
A huge wash of relieve passed over me for a moment.
About then, the pot boiled dry and at the first opportunity, (About 200 metres) I pulled a U-turn to off after her.
WRONG THING TO DO I know, but I had an overwhelming need to inflict serious injury's to her.
That fine line between sanity and flipping out I didn't just cross, I jumped over it.
As I came back up towards the intersection, the bloke who was behind me had a look of stunned amazement on his face while giving two thumbs up.
The engine only had about 25 miles on it and I did keep a cool enough head not to thrash the crap out of it
NOW, A REALLY GOOD THING HAPPENED..... I sedately cruised the area of Cooloola Cove and couldn't find the woman.
That was a very good thing, as I would've ended up arrested.
Edz and I were cruising around yesterday in the car..... he was stunned the tyre marks are actually in the intersection and how short they were when I showed him.
All in all, the Cadillac lived to cruise another day.

I think Edz was suitably impressed yesterday at just how nice a 1964 model can drive too.
We looked like a couple old drug dealers cruising around....
