    Three dead in serious crash between car, semi

    I was two minutes behind this today, and I rarely take Route 6.... wished I hadn't. I'm still shook up; can't imagine how THAT poor driver feels.

    Just wow.

    R.I.P. to those who lost their lives. Survivor's guilt will be heavy; I'm pretty sure. :( I'm actually dizzy myself; literally....for having been so close. I am sick to my stomach.... no joke.

    Sad story even more annoying is them saying the car was hit by a semi when it was the other way around and the driver tried to avoid it as well

    Unfortunately, a lot of "young" traffic out there, this time of year. :(

    I'm actually taking tonight off; I'm lucky to have that liberty.... unlike, sadly, many other guys in our line of work. Thanks again, sir.

    Rest well, @G13Tomcat . Call home. Talk to your family. Say a prayer tonight. Take a little walk and remind yourself how to be safe, and promise yourself once again you're going to do everything you can every day. Don't forget. Instead, let it give you perspective. That's all we can do, Tom.
