So there I was, making my way politely through light traffic at about 65mph on the 101 just south of Petaluma area. I was following a vehicle towing a sailboat in the right lane for about 10-15 seconds. This area of the highway has some construction, so both left and right sides have concrete barriers. I moved over to the left to pass. Just as I was moving past the driver side window I heard a WHUMP, and the vehicle jerked forward a couple of feet. I glanced over, noticing the expression of surprise on the driver. Then, looking in my rearview mirror as I accelerated, I saw that someone had rear-ended the boat trailer, and it was jackknifing out to the left - and as I watched in awe the trailer tipped then rolled onto its side, spilling the boat out across both lanes of traffic. Still probably at about 50mph.
As the incident disappeared in my rearview mirrors I realized that I probably moved out of the way of being ass-packed into the back of a sailboat just in time. I had the adrenaline giggles for a good 10 miles.
Oh yeah, my GoPro was off because I used both batteries riding up the 1
