That’s not what you said though. You said ‘something the car before you swerved around’.

At highway speeds a car three seconds ahead swerving around something is basically the same thing as a branch falling right in front of your car because a safe distance to a moving vehicle is different than a safe distance to a stationary object. The down vote is because you don't understand driving.

No. That's one of the most absurd things I've ever read,

you don't understand driving.

Better than you do, champ.
