Please, don’t stand in the road, or try and get personal property from your vehicle. Get to safety immediately.
Actually, unless it’s really necessary, remain in the car with the seatbelt fastened. Cars are designed to protect the occupant.
A few years ago, a friend had a minor crash. While he was standing on the side of the highway, another car crashed into him amputating his leg and giving him a major closed head injury. It took him about three years to die from the crash.
A few weeks ago, I was driving at night and hit a bump right at the expansion joint of a bridge. Being nighttime, I didn’t know I was on the bridge until I was on it. The bump released the energy from my shocks making the truck suddenly very light and putting the truck into a slide on the icy bridge. The people behind me go to see the side of my truck. At the end of the bridge, several cars had crashed into the guardrail after doing the same thing. The occupants were standing outside their cars and I was in an uncontrolled slide heading =right at them.
By the grace of God I was able to retain control but that was very scary.
