So sad for the families caught up in this accident. Years ago, my wife and I along with our baby daughter were in the middle of a multi-car pileup on a busy freeway. Some drunk driver veered from his lane and cars began smashing into each other all around us. I prayed hard that we would come out of it okay. No hits in front or sides, and cars were coming up fast behind us and smashed into each other. Wen it was over, we were the only non-struck car in the middle. Ambulances came for others and we counted our blessings. Still brings chills thinking about how helpless we were.

Driver’s are so bad. I don’t know if it’s because we have a lot of old people in Sarasota or just general distraction and speeding, but Wednesday morning, I had to avoid 4 accidents:
1. A car spun out in front of me getting on I-75 south.
2. Another big pick up truck just pushed me out of the way to get my spot in the left lane
3. A van just aimlessly veered into my lane
4. A psycho idiot went to pass me, a box truck, and a truck and trailer on a windy 55mph 2 lane road and cut me off because he almost got nailed by oncoming traffic.

That was a pretty normal days drive to work.

Sometimes I wish I had a rocket launcher to vaporize idiot drivers and people with Obama bumper stickers. (just kidding)

Hmmm?

Helpless? It seems you had the best help in the universe.

A little gratitude and acknowledgement might be a nice gesture on your part.
