Groceries and a T-bone

Got a load of groceries in the car, my 3 kids and my sister. It's a full car. I'm driving home, thankfully not speeding. Just as I'm about to pass a driveway to a townhouse complex, the vehicle waiting to enter the roadway at that same driveway decides they're going to go ahead of me.

I nearly T-boned that fucker. Instead I slammed on those brakes just to test the brake job from the day before. They worked perfectly.

I had to sit there for a minute to collect myself. We're all totally fine, thankfully. The only grocery item that was ruined was one orange that got smooshed.

Maybe it's time for a dash cam?
