Rain and BAD driver =...
Feeling sorry for myself right now. On my way to my aunts house to look at her heater last night after work and a lady turned turned in front of me. It was a 4 lane road and traffic left and right traffic was turning... I couldn't see her and she didn't see me... Boomooohhh. BAD PART WAS MY GRANDSON WAS IN THERE. He is fine. Well he is perfect. I am fine... TV? Not so lucky. Good thing I don't have a trip planned soon. I would really be chapped. Just thought I would share. Thank you God for the safety you provided.

Accidents suck, but they happen to the best of us. Glad everyone is OK. The TV can always be fixed/replaced.

Glad you & your Grandson are ok ............... We had a bad wreck near by yesterday near the NC VA line on Rt 220 (4 lane) a pickup truck was trying to elude NC police into VA driving in the wrong lanes hit a woman driving home from work head on, both were killed.
Highly traveled by campers as well. For those that use RT220 in Virginia it can be a bad area for wrecks near the NC / VA line on the VA side.

Sorry about the accident and glad to hear everyone was ok. The most precious thing we have is life itself and that can't be replaced, anything mechanical can and that's what insurance is for. Hope you get the TV up and running soon.

I remember driving to work that morning (not on the highway, but nearby) and keeping an eye on the cloud cover that hung about 10 ft off the ground. Since then, I don't drive in conditions like that. If it looks like thick fog can drop, I get off the road and wait it out.
