Alright fun story, goes a little like this.
I just dropped my wife off at her job at 7am, we are having a bad ass rain storm, so I am on the way back home at around 65-70mph, I get a red light so I begin to press my brakes, oh wait, NO BRAKES!!! So I pull the emergency brakes, yay those don't work, I run the red light barely avoiding an SUV of some sort. Then I am cruising at around 45-50mph, a cop begins to pass me I notice so I honked and motioned for him to roll down his window, when he does I yell "Get in front of me and stop me!! I have no brakes!!" The cop does it and I am saved.
New moral dilemma for me really, I used to hate cops.
Does this count as a facepalm moment? Or should we put a new spot for "Almost shit your pants moments" ?
