I was lucky today that drivers behind kept a safe distance. Nearly had my first crash. (files.catbox.moe)

Car stalled after braking, I think I forgot to use the clutch. I then promptly failed to start the car somehow, not sure how but I was rushing a bit. This situation could have turned out so much worse and I fully thought it would be my first crash from a rear-end but bless the drivers behind for keeping a safe distance. I thought I might have missed seeing the deer but on rewatch I think it was blocked entirely by the truck until the last moment.

When I see all lanes of traffic have brake lights on simultaneously, I get on the brake right away - but that's much easier to see when you're doing hindsight on the internet.

Glad nobody got hurt, thanks for uploading!
