WOW !

I don't think there was a piece left that could have over loaded a wheel barrow!

As I used to tell folks, everything, is harder in the snow.

Oh well, say a prayer for 'em...

say a prayer, fire up the sprayer...

Good luck to the trucker for getting chunks of texting teen out of his grill...

But I jest. That's brutal in every sense of the word. I hope the trucker made his delivery time on schedule.

After what happened to me, I take going out on the road VERY seriously. I take the bus to work nearly all the time. I seldom drive the minivan at all, and almost never in inclement weather. And I tend to ride the motorbike on these little, deserted side roads. I've always been this paranoid, as far back as I can remember.
That said, I learned how to drive in snow and ice before any other kind of weather. I could drive almost any kind of vehicle through a snow-covered Cleveland street. But I've learned that I cannot trust some other driver, whom I wouldn't from Adam, to have that same knowledge and skill. I feel safer off of the road when the weather gets to be more than the average driver can handle.
This poor driver paid too dear a price to learn what a serious business driving a vehicle can be.
