We were driving out to Manchester, NH to attend a nephew's high school graduation when we had to go through a stoplight. We were in the left-hand turn/go straight lane and the person next to us was in the go straight only lane. Just as I was almost through the intersection the woman in the other lane decided to turn.
I caught the movement of her car out of the corner of my eye and whipped my wheel around barely in time to avoid hitting the side of her car.
My new 7-year-old son's reaction: Oh my God! That scared my legs!
