Tom ran over to Scott and performed the heimlich maneuver.
Thats scary! What caused Scott to start choking on his food?
I wasn't paying attention to the road and I slammed on the brakes and Scott started choking on his sandwich.
Wow, I'm so glad that Scott is okay. Next time, pay attention to the road or you may not be so lucky
I had an important phone call from my child who needed to talk with me. You try saying no to that.
I understand that distractions can occur but if you can't handle them while driving maybe you should wait until you're parked somewhere to answer your phone. That way you and your passengers would be safe if you suddenly become overwhelmed and emotional.
