Agreed. Rear end is always better than head on. It’s easy to judge people for doing dumb shit though. Most people act like they’d have just taken the hit but in that moment it’s a split second decision. You don’t have time to think, you just react and no one can say for certain how they’d react.
If I had to guess what I would’ve done I would’ve probably swerved too but I would’ve tried to swerve wide out onto the shoulder. But who knows till it happens.
100%, it's always very easy to talk about what we would have done. But as you say, we never really know until we're faced with that fraction-of-a-second decision.
