People are alwayse in a hurry to get nowhere! Stories like this happen all the time. One of my closest friends got nailed by a drunk driver at a accident. He is in the guenness book for person struck by a vehicle thrown the furthest distance and made a full recovery. I wish people would slow down give us a break and understand we are doing our job! We didnt cause the accident!
