Today morning I think I saw my entire life in a flash when I realize I am going to get into massive accident.

Was in a middle of 3 lane autobahn driving at average speed of 140 Km/h and tad higher speed cars in left lane ( not many ). As it happened a massive truck tried to join the right most lane from another exit. He did not realize a small mini cooper in the right most lane and just entered anyway. At half way stage both realized and then started the chain reaction.
1. Mini came into my lane suddenly
2. I had no time to apply brake without hitting him. I saw a car (red) little farther away in left lane so changed to that lane .
3. Just realized Red was really cruising at almost 250 + Km/h and he just came right behind me but he noticed the switch I guess and so he turned to middle lane to avoid me but his speed was too high and so need more space and indicated he needs to come back to his lane and so I moved out giving him way and cooper moved out to service lane to give me space before he joined in.
3. Other cars who were speeding behind us realized the whole mess and were zig sagging each lane trying to avoid each other. I counted atleast 7 to 8 cars maneuvering each other and lane jumping in a controlled mad way to avoid collision.

Finally after 2 minutes of chaos with no one stopping the car just switched back to their respective speed and lane and drove away.
cheers,
Super
