And from Uncle Albert - a Darke County over-the-road truck driver:
"And again today in Shell Lake, Arkansas. Texting n driving, woman was
about 26ish ran off the median edge of the road, got in the gravel n
hit the safety cable anchor post n bounced across the interstate in
front of a semi n got slammed/launched into another car/suv...luckily I
seen her drifting worse n worse n let off the accelerator when I was
about 400 feet from her n 3 seconds later sh** was flying
everywhere...the truck driver she'd just passed said she was looking
down n texting n that's when she was drifting sadly he's the one she
shot in front of after the pole...he's ok...she's alive but her face
won't be so pretty for a long time...I'm glad she lived, that everyone
did, but I also can't help but be glad she will be reminded of her
stupidity, carelessness, n disregard for others every time she looks in
the mirror for a long time...I understand the convenience of phones I
truly do. N I understand that some hate to talk and would rather
text....But do you hate it enough to die over it??? or kill it n spend
your time in prison n the rest in your minds prison knowing what you
did???...pull the he** over!! group text your driving and call if its
important...it's not Chinese arithmetic people...it's simple death that
can be avoided..."
"Tonight about an hour north of Houston, right in front of myself, 2
other Trucks n 2 cars a guy lost control, flipped, got ejected the
vehicle continued flipping n went over the side of the over pass with
his wife n daughter inside....somehow they didn't have a scratch or
bump...The man had no pulse, several fractures obvious upon approach
one of the other guys said he knew CPR also n we checked his airway n I
went to start compressions n his chest was mush...That father n husband
died in the filthy grass of the highway 59 median a mangled mess n
abandoned his wife n daughter...all for texting n driving!!! his wife n
daughter both said they warned him he shouldn't n should pay attention
to the traffic...he didn't listen...now he's dead...PUT THE DAM PHONE
DOWN N DRIVE!!!!! I'm seriously sick of seeing your ignorant dead
bodies while I'm trying to work n stay alive dodging you idiots!!! Is
it worth it? Is it??? Good night." (This is how he
wrote it. I only omitted a curse word)
"Sometimes all you need is for someone to just be there, even if they
can't solve your problems. Just knowing there is someone who cares can
make all the difference!" sun.gazing.com
The best is yet to be!!! MONA
