Ok.. I know you all have 'em. As a motorcyclist, I can think of a few moments where the pucker factor was WAY beyond 10. I'd like to hear about your "pucker" moments behind the wheel. It should give us noobs a list of things to watch out for when we're out there.
What's your biggest "pucker" moment on the road?

Almost flattening a guy who decided it was a good idea to come to a dead stop in the middle of the interstate. Good thing the next lane over suddenly opened up enough for me to dart into it and save his life. Couldn't take the shoulder either. It had a stopped vehicle on it.

I don't think we're supposed to notice that!

My scariest moment ever was when a moron pulled out 3 feet in front of me from an onramp. Going 35. I was going 65. The left lane was supposed to be closed due to construction crew ahead though it had no cones. I was forced to emergency lane change, the construction crew was about 150-200 yards in front of me. To make it all worse once I changed lanes the idiot began to speed up beside me blocking my way back to the right lane. I was facing slamming into a work truck with 6 crew members around it. Whom where fleeing for their lives mind you. While the idiot continued to run beside me in the right lane SLOWING as I was slowing. I finally had to pull into the right lane to avoid hitting the work crew and force the moron off the road.

already had one - in two weeks on the road...
southbound hwy 6 out of SLC. barreling along at a screaming 35mph.. come around a bend, and there's this jerk stopped in the middle of the road... nowhere for me to go.
He took off and, of course, I missed him.
by about 30 feet
what really cranks me up, though, is he did it TWO MORE TIMES! too #### stupid to maybe pull over or even into the little parking lots there. No! gotta stop in the middle of the frelling road and see if maybe this is where he wants to be.
Three for the price of one. If I'd not been under load and climbing, he'd have been crunched -

Hardly.
Two different angles and about 2 hrs time difference between the bottom pic and the top one.
Overcast and sun still coming up (late fall) and sun higher in the sky.
