Narrow escape

On my way back home from work last evening, I passed through a flyover and was heading down from the flyover, and suddenly I noticed there was a long queue in front of me at a traffic light where all cars are turning right. When I realised it's been really late for me to pedal the break, I breaked my car all of a sudden and my car tyres shouted like crazy. NGEKHHHHH!!!!...Oh thank god that my car just stopped inches before the car in front. Phew!... But that car in front did hear my car breaking sound, which was really loud. I think he (or she..can't really remember as I was too shocked) was scared by me, he straight away drove the car away the queue (away from me actually) and drove straight up. I think he was also traumatized and would rather take a longer journey instead of being banged from the back by me. :S I was so thankful that nothing bad happened, or else I'd get into trouble.
