One day I was coming back home. It was about 2pm. Hot day, road almost empty, everything perfectly OK. The route I was travelling is a kind of bypass and is designed to go 90 km/h; everybody, if the traffic allows it, exceed 110 km/h :m_wink:. That day, as I told you, the way was almost empty, so I was actally going at 120 km/h. The snag? the road is has many wide turn and a somewhat hard turn to the right, the visibility completely cut off by trees and a house.
That day, when I was approaching that turn I had a most vivid kind of "vision" (not an actual image, just "knowing") of a lonely stopped dark blue car just around the corner. There was NO indication that there was anything amiss. I was actually alone on my side of the road. I slammed the brakes and managed to nearly stop entering the turn. There was a long queue of stopped vehicles, due to an accident where a truck had completely burned down. The queue was completely hidden behind the turn. And the last vehicle of the queue was a dark blue car. Given the speed I was going, I would not be here, typing this story, had I not followed that feeling.
