The Street Fight – A Look into the Future?

Premonitions can happen anytime but when they happen as you’re driving, they can be especially disconcerting. This short story is about once such paranormal incident.

I was on my way home after having visited a patient in my duties as a Hospice volunteer. As I scanned the four lanes of traffic around me, I suddenly had this vision of two guys fighting in the street in front of me. As soon as that picture flashed through my mind, I wondered why it had happened.

Almost immediately, I had at least a partial answer. A number of years before that event, I was driving on the same highway with Barb in the car. When we stopped for a traffic light, two men came out of nowhere, wrestling with each other and even bouncing off cars, including ours. My conclusion? Umm, maybe just being on the same road, perhaps at the same time of day, created the “fighting” vision. A weak conclusion, admittedly, but nothing else came to mind.

Seconds later, the traffic ahead of me thickened considerably. As it did, a black pickup truck swerved dangerously to the left, barely squeezing between two cars. The guy in the car now behind him slammed on his brakes and then he swerved dangerously to his right, caught up with the trick and matched speeds with it.

The next thing I know, both car and truck stopped dead in the middle of the highway. Luckily, I was in the far right lane, so I was able to zip past those two stopped vehicles without incident. But as I looked back in my mirror, car and truck were still unmoving as the drivers obviously raised hell with each other through their open windows. Traffic backed up behind them and people slowed to gawk–a dangerous situation all around.

Luckily, one or both of the drivers broke off their confrontation before it could escalate any further. Car and truck roared past me and out of sight and I breathed a sigh of relief.

Had I been warned about that confrontation? If so, for what purpose? Was it just to show me how valid premonitions can be or was it something else? The only thing I can think of was that after having the vision, I was highly vigilant in my driving. Maybe through such hyper awareness I was able to avoid having an accident. What do you think?
