Almost accident
Reached stop sign at the end of Steiwer Rd. Jefferson. Looked Rt to see a pickup heading my way. Looked left - saw nothing. Looked right again, saw the truck pass me. Proceeded to turn left heading south on hwy 99. My nose was maybe a 1-2 feet into the lane of traffic. Without looking left again. There wasn't but seconds that passed.
I Stopped abruptly as a white vehicle swerved around me. I wasn't very far in her lane of traffic. As she could have easily swerved around me. I backed up a few feet. I was pulling a trailer, and I wasn't paying attention to the trailer when I backed up. It barely kinked the hitch. So I know I didn't have to back up very far.
The white vehicle did a wide swing left, then right, over compensating. Then a left swing to avoid running in the ditch, on the right side of the road, then a 180 almost, facing the other direction, bumped a ditch and drove into a farmers field.
The came to rest, 91 yards from where my vehicle was.
There were 3 people in the white vehicle, none of them were injured - that they claimed.
This happened between 12:45 and 1pm.
