Dennison said he saw items in the road that he knew came from his mother's truck.

What am I missing? If the car skidded off the road, went over a cliff, into a quarry, and sank in 105 feet of water -- why is debris scattered in the road?

"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.

...why is debris scattered in the road?

The article said that she slid on the ice and the truck rolled.

* I guess you've never been in, or witnessed a bad accident before.. You'll be amazed at what can happen when a vehicle is moving out of control.

Uh, duh, I think the vehicle also went through a wall.

Maybe it hit a guardrail.

When a car is upsidedown skidding over a precipice it leaves debris.
