Newest Bad news.

Well everyone is ok but my BF was involved in an accident yesterday and possibly totaled her car. She is bumbed about the car because of all the fighting she had to do to keep it(long story). Now it sits and will not run. The front end damage crimped the serpintien belt and the car will start but stall right out.

I am going to try and link to her pics on her Focus site.

*Warning* some non 56K friendly pics

If anyone was traveling 93N Thursday moring between 8AM & 9AM near the Hookset tolls you probably saw us. she was perpindicular to the highway in the left lane.

And needless to say My 10MPG (give or take a few) truck is once again my daily driver, for a while anyway.

Sorry to hear about the accident. It looks like it messed it up for sure.At least no one was hurt..It seems she really like her car.

I'm glad your Ok because we had a lot of wrecks on this side of the state.

People need to know the salt does not work when it is as cold as it is.

She was doing about 50 and just ran out of road. There was too much traffic to pull out of the skid.

There was already a car in front of her spun into the meadian and while I was ther ewith her another car spun out behind the cop car but was able to keep going.

Funny thing about the salt not working. It did not keep the traffic from doing 50-65, almost hitting the cop car and the traffic kept taking out the cops cones and flaires they were putting down. It was almost as if the blue lights from the police car were drawing people to it. The only time traffic really slowed down was when tractor trailors went by slowley taking up 2 lanes causing a rolling road block. Lots of people need to relearn how to drive. I keep saying there needs to be random driving tests given every few years, not just the eye site test to get your liscense. People don't undersand that driving is a privledge, not a right..

Sorry about the small rant.
