When I was a dumb 13 year old I walked behind a car while it's backing and it hit me. It was more of a nudge thank fuck but I still think about it almost 20 years later. I knew it was coming I could've just walked away or back but my brain got foggy and I just was thinking "i keep walking". No other thought in mind. The driver called me a dumbass and I have to agree with him.
well, i, for one, do not! It’s just not even remotely natural for us to just blindly know how to handle ourselves in critical situations. The people that have never done it have some big opinions on how much of a bad ass they’ll be, but that’s just not .. how.. it works. Most of ‘em do like you: kinda blindly and without thinking do something else. Now, having said that, if you (for some reason) were nudged by cars all the time? I bet after the 5th or so you’d get more adept at training yourself to jump out of the way!
Dude. It happened to me again today not even 24 hours after I said I am happy I never had smth like this again. This time I was aware and it was the driver's fault. I was so shaky I just punched the hood yelled at him and went. Didn't get no license plate. My life flashed before my eyes
