One time we went down like usual but a car at full speed turned into the street and was heading straight towards us, we had no where soft to jump to and going too fast too stop, the car had seen us but it was too late so he slammed the breaks but there was no way he was going to stop in time, we jump out of the board onto the hard road and rolled to the sides scrapping our knees and elbows badly and the skateboard went right under the car before it stopped. The car break noise was very loud and a lot of people came out to see. We were ok but bloody and the dude started to swear out of his car window and drove off.
