Have you ever observed a near accident that made you cringe?

Saw two vehicles trying to beat a red light on the way to work. One was turning left, the other was attempting to make it through the intersection. Both of them just barely stopped in time.

Yes. Been in such a situation. Was driving around a corner when some toddler who couldn't have been older than 3 was standing by the street! If he was actually in the street, I'm not so sure I would have reacted in time to avoid hitting him. Ugh, that still makes me cringe to this day. Like, where the hell were his parents?! I get that kids wander off on their own and all, but holy shit! That close call was enough to traumatize me.

@Ducky That would make me angry because of the clearly incompetent parents.
