Please don't drive tired

rrplasencia · 01-10-2011, 02:18 PM

Like the thread says don't do it. I work long hours as many of you do, and last night it nearly cost my family the ultimate price. This used to an F-150 Lariat Crew Cab. I remember opening my eyes long enough to see the tree, then whoever found me called 911. I woke up at some point to see a fire truck, fire rescue, and 4 patrol cars. And yes the tree is in better shape then i am right now, but i was lucky enough walk away from this. (although i'm assuming it was actually caried away but i really don't know) If anyone can see the engine or axles let me know, the front wheels are only there as fancy cinder blocks.

Jayzuz! Glad you are still with us, Richard! We all owe the big entity upstairs some "thank you time" for that.

Praise be to God that you are OK. Good thing you were in a truck and not a compact.

Man, thats messed up. I'm really glad you are ok and are a fellow member of the Near Death Survivors Club (as opposed to the alternative).

I know it makes a person think about what really is important in life!

Prayers for a quick recovery sent.

I'd say to go buy some lottery tickets but it looks like you cashed yours last night.

Maybe it's all that good karma for taking care of the troops.
