Only once...
Goining south on I-5, on a downhill slope to the Golden Gate bridge... many lanes wide, all full and doing at least the speed limit.. we were in the third lane from the right. We could see the bridge just in front of us.
I could see the all lanes of traffic in front and slightly below me from the cab of my truck. All of the sudden every lane came to a complete stop... I planted both feet... sliding straight to within inches of the car in front of me. Then almost immediately all alnes resumed moving... there was no accident, no signs, no flashing lights, nothing apparent to cause the stop. Maybe a tourist taking a picture???
Janet held the dash in place... I tested the strength of the steering wheel.
Scared the h3ll out of me afterward.
I was amazed at how straight the T/TC slid... we stayed in the lane all the way. I'm glad that we didn't have a pusher. I have no idea what all was going on behind us.
