Never understood the term "near miss".

Depends on what you're discussing. It's a "direct hit" on the car, it directly hit the car, but it is a "near miss" on the driver, it came near, but missed.

Called a Beamer for a reason......


Glad the driver OK, more or less, but surely the driver seat is destroyed, but not from the beam......if you get my drift......:issues::rofl:

Looks like it never even touched the body, just the windshield, although the interiour must have got shit kicked. :ack:
