Had my first really close call on Sunday
Driving southbound on I 81 in PA, had just stopped at the Flying J, filled up, felt my trailer brakes were a little to hard, so I adjusted them and we continued south.
Soon after I was passed, on the left, by a guy who about 8 car lengths ahead went halfway off the road to the left and then across both lanes and into the guard rail on the right.
I was able to come to a complete, safe, stop, prior to his impact with the guard rail. But I admit I was shaken, and really glad I had taken the extra time to readjust the brakes.
There was no where for me to put the trailer off the road safely, so I wasn't able to personally check on the other vehicles passengers, but their airbags had deployed, and they were moving around. Other 'normal' sized vehicles were able to get off the road and offer assistance
