Egads.
Reminds me of the July 1st 2001 car accident that claimed the life of my counterpart (Audrey) with the step-daughter's father (John).
They were in a huge dualie axle pickup truck and got slammed by an Olds Alero on Rte 23 near High Point headon.
The Alero was doing 100, in the wrong lane.
Well, John lived, his wife died.
The two guys in the Olds Alero, in the words of John's step-brother who responded as an EMT to the scene, "Put two mice in a beer can. Now stomp on it."
The Olds was pretty much impact welded to the nose of John's truck.
Audrey's funeral was the last one I went to.
*shudders*
I try to stay away from Storm King mountain, and all roads near it.

Sorry toots..didn't mean to dredge up old memories.

It's just that I get highly P.O'd at A-hole who take that mountain with a grain of salt...especially when they lower the odds of my survival as I spend much time on it.

This accident caused the car to richocet on and off the jersey barrier a few times...and hit a tow truck that was towing a car...it hit the tow so hard it deployed the airbag in the car being towed.
