today i was was going to get a haircut and saw a blue e60, she was on other lane but later she was behind me, she was keep following and light turned red so we stopped and she got out of the car and she went behind her car and looks at something for a second and gets back in. i think she was checking out at her exhaust cause she was lookng at bottom of her real bumper. lookng from the behind, my exhaust is bigger and looks little diffrent and has sound, so she was curious and checked her out,she was kinda young, it was funny . light turend green and she make a lane change and pass, i was lookng her pass by and i hear a loud ass crash, and i looked forward and i suddenly turned my steering wheel left and hit the break.. it was an car accident rite infront of me, light turned red and first car stopped but guess car infront of me was lookng at something else and he suddenly realized theres car infront of him is stopped and he hit the break but it was too late. it was so loud and he hit so hard and i was so so close....if i didnt make a move my car probably got badly fucked up and i would be writing this in hospital rite now. luckly car behind me was far behind me so i didnt get hit from behind also..so i backed up and went to rite lane and passed those two fucked up cars infront of me...evryone, pay attention when u drive~~~~only look forward~~~

thanks for the heads up. i am glad that you are ok.

an indentical incident happened to me many years earlier with my old vw, unfortunately i crashed into the lady in front (biggest mistake my part)! lost attention for a split second!!
i learned an extremely extremely painful and expensive lesson, this experience is vivid in my mind until today.
i am now extremely careful, trained like 'the queen'. even in the event of a bomb blast i shall not take my focus and entire attention off the road.

Clearly, I think the best advice is to pay attention in the forward direction (or at least the direction of travel) but don't drive with blinders on. This is probably common sense but in case it's not, many accidents are avoided by a driver being aware of his surroundings too. Keep looking rearward, to the sides, etc. because sometimes someone's may be about to slam into you and you might have a chance to get out of the way if you are aware of the impending disaster...
