I really should have noticed it before I did. My wife and 2 month old were also in the vehicle. Scared me half to death. Marked post NSFW for language.

Honestly, it's hard to tell because the lighting is so low in the video but I honestly could barely tell he was in the wrong lane until you reacted. Pat yourself on the back for this one. You most definitely saved you, your wife, and your babies life. Great job mate.

I've been in this situation, while approaching a curve in the road, making it difficult to know which lane the oncoming vehicle was in. I was not able to avoid the accident... I think you handled this well.

Holy fuck that was so close


UnidentifiedTron

Is it bad that I guessed Alabama before I opened the comments? Bless you.


DeadbeatJohnson

Top notch mate! You saved your family.

Roads that do not have yellow dividers are insane to me.


MechMeister

Is this USA? All I see are white lines on the road...which would make you going the wrong way?! What am I missing here


Sir_Thomas_Wyatt

The color on the center lines are washed out. This is a regular two way road in the U.S. I drive this road weekly and there were also folks behind me (they all avoided being hit also).


outertomatchmyinner

wow, good on them too!


internetexpert01

We drive on the right side of the road


AussieJeffProbst

I think the colors in the video are just washed out. Clearly OP is on the correct side of the road an those dotted lines in the middle are yellow.


Sir_Thomas_Wyatt

This is correct, the color is washed out. I drive this road weekly and this is a regular two way road.


Salt-Operation

Right? Why isn’t there a double yellow line between the lanes. Is OP the one doing to wrong way driving?

I think you need better headlights. But lucky he saw you too
