"Dennison, 28, of Rockland has had his own encounter with another one of the city's quarries in September 2002.

He said he lost control of his pickup truck on a rainy night and found himself skidding over the edge.

Unlike his mother, he said, he was able to jump free of his vehicle and land in the quarry. He suffered a broken hip and cracked ribs. He was cited by city police for driving to endanger, sentenced to two weeks in jail and ordered to pay the cost of his rescue. "

I feel for this guy but it seem to be a family thing about quarries. I think there is some responsibility on their part.

I agree also that risking more lives is not prudent but it must be tough to look out the window and see the spot where Mom is all winter.

I think there is some responsibility on their part.

I'm curious. Why are they partially responsible?

I feel for this guy but it seem to be a family thing about quarries. I think there is some responsibility on their part.

I was thinking the same thing. I've seen people drive on snow and ice covered roads as if it were the middle of July, completely oblivious to the fact that they could spin out of control in an instant.

As for me, I drive somewhere between 5 - 10 mph on snowy roads, but that's just me. Better late than dead.
