Hello,

Do you find fault with this sentence:

Me being an experienced driver I swerved off the lane to avoid collision with the truck that was barreling down on me.

Thanks!

Omit 'me'
Being an experienced driver, I swerved off the lane to avoid collision with the truck that was barreling down on me.
