My Dad’s friend in college had this happen, except with a plumbing truck and pipe, and it decapitated his wife and daughter.

I always wondered why he wouldn’t sit behind those trucks, then one year he finally told me. Really tragic. I don’t know how his friend actually overcame that, or if he did, they fell out of touch, but that would ruin me. On so many levels. I don’t know that I would drive a car again, at the same time, I live in the US, how do you not? lol but that’s a rant for another day.

On a trip to the US on a road trip from Detroit to Louisiana, I think it was like Kentucky or Mississippi, I had a truck in front of me lose a star picket off the tray and it flew past my widescreen to the left, missing me by about a foot.

Could not stop thinking about that video for days.

How is he doing now? That’s a hell of a hole to climb out of. I wouldn’t even know where to begin…
