Never bother about incoming traffic, that's it, really.
Wait, did I write down "Like a Man?" Sorry, that should have read "Like an Imbecile."
I'd imagine this guy arriving home, pop a beer, sit on the couch, and watch the evening news. I imagine him seeing first time how he was so close to being wiped off from the face of the earth earlier when he was changing the tire. "Sh*t! That's me!"
I bet he'll be tasting the best beer he's ever had in his entire life.
So close no matter how far.
