This is pretty amazing, because this same things happened to me, except I was on slushy snow...my ABS kicked in just after the car started out of control, and I stayed frontwards, missing the curb by almost a foot...I thought for sure I was going to need a new wheel and alignment.

Glad to hear you didn't crank out your suspension, though...that would have been a mess.

Also, in my old car one time (A 1980 Chevette with Chrome bumpers) a guy in an Avalanche was talking on his cell phone...didn't see I was stopped right BESIDE him to make a right turn, and TURNED RIGHT INTO ME! MY chrome bumpers crushed the hell out of his little plastic crap front end, and he needed some body work...the Vette escaped unscathed.

Watch out for other drivers.
