Walked in front of a busMy mother would appreciate the irony of this one. I was lighting up a cigarette and stepped onto the road, not looking what I was doing. I was literally an foot away from a bus travelling along but for some reason I stepped back onto the grass behind me and felt the bus speed past me beeping its horn. Not sure why I stepped back but after I didn't feel guilty about smoking! Really lucky escape. (I have quit since though).

Not feeling guilty about smoking,even though it was the lighting-up which was distracting you from checking oncoming traffic?
Anyway, well done those autonomic reflexes and peripheral vision!
