The story is in the Daily Sun this morning on page c-6 along with a picture. Praying for your family .

Thank you, delima. The picture says it all. It's a miracle there weren't more injuries. I started shaking just looking at it.

Terrifying. I'm glad it wasn't more serious. Those are phone calls no one wants to make or receive.

The mistake we all seem to make is that we simply believe that since we have the right away that we are absolved of any responsibilities. The fact remains that a driver is still required to maintain a proper look out by observing both the situation to his/her left and right has they move forward through an intersection.

Oh, let's not turn this into a lecture series. The driver of the truck was at fault, period. Thank God the four in the van were not hurt worse. They have my prayers for a full recovery, Redwitch.

Any time you are at a red light, especially in one of the big intersections please do this; when the light turns green count to five, look left, then right then go forward. If someone behind you honks, don't worry about it. It's better to be a little annoying than be T-boned by another vehicle and injured or killed.

I speak from experience.
Thoughtful advice.

Please read this, honkers.

Oh Redwitch.

Bill :)

Redwitch - prayers for a speedy recovery and your own peace.:pray:

Prayers for your family, Dee. Hope all goes well.

Thank you all so much. I'm discovering that today is much worse for my peace of mind than yesterday. Guess I was too busy yesterday to figure out just how serious this could have been. Today, I can't quit shaking.

Still haven't heard anything about the surgery. I'm praying all goes well for Sandy. That lady has it rough enough as it is.

Thoughts and prayers.

It must be a normal response as I too am slow in how my reactions will come about after an event. It's like my brain needs to process it before I feel the emotions of it. So take deep breathes...it does help!! This could have (emphasis on the "could") been bad but the miracle of it is---it wasn't (bad as it could have been)! This is a huge "PRAISE"!!!!!

Red, we're here for you. And we're all thinking of you and yours.

obxgal 08-27-2013 02:39 PM
Dee you and your family and all involved are in my thoughts and prayers.
