Aye, cos you're going to get dozens of people admitting to having something fallen off their car that nearly killed someone. Nae.

Something similar happened here last year, a lorry went over a man hole and the cover flew up and through the windscreen of the car behind and the guy got out un-hurt the police said if there had been a passenger they would have been fooked. So even incases of extreme bad luck there can be some good luck. If you know what I mean

i guess in this story this guys good luck would be instant death.. seing as he didnt survive..
my aunt with hubby, 2 their friends were going from Lithuania for to Prague for long weekend.. In poland they stoped behind lorry. Traffic lights. another lorry hit them from behind. one person instanly died. three walked with few bruises... my aunt died... and she only settled her life.. good job, kid, husband, own place..
