Like Half of the people that wrote in said "I didnt believe in ghost's or anything like that" is how I felt until 10 days ago. To start, I was on my way to New Brunswick with my family, my little brother, mom, dad and grandma. It was really late, like 2:30 in the morning, and my parents and my brother had fallen asleep in the back, me and my grandmother were in the front, she was driving. It was pitch black and my grandma can see perfectly, just her reflexes arent that great. Well, all of the sudden I heard "watch out" in a whisper coming from the back. I turned around really quickly and all of the sudden the ball joint broke in the front left tire (something that holds the tire and the rim together) and we we heading right for the ditch. We were about 1 foot until the ditch and I heard "Ready, here we go" and all of the sudden, we went the opposite way and came to a stop. We got out and I saw a cross where a little girl, around 5 years old had died. I walked over and read a little description, it said "The Highways Angel." Then I noticed that are tire marks were heading right for the cross.
