Just crusin along the sidewalk ear buds in oblivious to the world ,out of no where something crashes into the back of my leg spins me around and i end up on the ground beside a car that just crashed into the building in front of me! The idiot driving is trying to back up, a guy helps me up and out of the way.The driver was stumbling drunk ,they told me i'm lucky 6 inches further ahead and i would have been between the car and the building . Nothing broken but i'd feel luckier if he had missed me altogether!馃槚

Not shifting the blame but this is one example of why I think it is insane to walk around in public with headphones on. It's just not sage out there with people to be unaware nd cut off from the surroundings.
@MethDozer I read recently of a woman walking across a train track whilst wearing earbuds and on her phone... the train repeatedly sounded its horn and she remained oblivious... luckily, she only suffered a broken arm, but still, some people are so goddamn oblivious it's beyond pathetic.
@deadgerbil Maybe if i had no buds in and he hit a parked car or something i'd have heard him coming stepped forward really quick and ended up right in front of the car instead of beside it. I believe i was lucky it happened just the way it did.
@kodiac Oh yeah, you are def. lucky that you survived with just some severe bruising. Many die after getting hit by a car or they become paralyzed and live on with a diminished quality of life.
