No problem. Let me also clarify, my language was a bit ambiguous in the prior post. I am not dissociated from the memory. I recall the way the original experience was dissociative.

It was all slow motion and detached while it the car was in motion, then went back to normal after I got my bearings, detached the safety belt to drop out of my seat, and crawled out the window into the snow...

I had a minor "mortality crisis" in the hours and days after, as I processed the facts of the event. But, the real-time experience was numb, almost passive observer. And my recall of it also recalls that meta context.
