Jude, sorry for all the bad things that's happening in you're life, things will turn around soon, and keep you're head up. I know you can never get back what you have lost (God Bless her) But She is with you believe me, the soul is very powerful and love is even more powerful.

If you saw the picture it showed the car upside down. All you had to do was look. All I saw was the rear end of a Buick Century stopped in the road. I saw part of a tire in front of it, but certainly didn't see a car........ I have to agree with father of two. To the right of the Buick further down the road, you could see the vehicle on its roof and over the top of the Buick, it appears the top of the ambulance was visible. |

DOES IT REALLY MATTER ? .....  I did not know this girl at least I don't believe I do. She is now lost by a family and loved ones, maybe children? DOES IT MATTER IF parts of a vehicle were in view in a picture? Would you want to know there are people with nothing better to do than to talk about what the last moments of life, views of your; child, girlfriend, sister, niece's life appeared to be. Please; have respect for those she leaves behind to mourn, for a life that is never more. PLEASE? ...  ... In the Name of The; + F S H S + Let this go. |

Since driving is a privilege and not a right,maybe to curb speeding the gov't come up with a way to make new speed limit signs equipped with a computerized gps system that links to vehicles speedometers,so when people go over the speed limit ,the signs send a signal to the vehicles computer system controlling the speed,to cut the accelerator.
Basically a kill switch put in the vehicles computer system to keep people from speeding.

I've had people behind me both on 23 and 18 laying on the horn and as they passed me yell some nasty remarks to me followed by flipping me the bird as they passed.
All because I am going the speed limit which is 55mph.
The city ,county and state wouldn't be broke if they beefed up traffic patrols running radar heavily on those highways,and lawmakers changing the penalties making them stricter when caught speeding.
23 and 18 are NOT a interstate highway to be driving 70+.

OK..I drove that stretch of road about 7:30 that morning and there were long stretches of black ice all the way to 39. can't remember the exact time I came back home, but the accident must have happened bout 10 - 20 minutes before I got to the scene. Drove by and all I seen was the car upside down in the ditch, ambulance and people directing traffic. I tried to catch the news on spl the next day and have gone through the newspaper to read about what happened, who was involved. Don't know if I just missed it or if there is a news blackout on these sort of things these days. Was there an article in the Times? Can anyone help me out on this?
Just for the record, it's not that I am trying to be nosy on this or wanting to get in on the gossip.....I just wanted to know what happened and who was involved. It could be that it is someone I know. Who knows?
And for all the banter in this thread on this subject, let me say that it is nothing more than natural human curiosity for people to look and talk about tragic things that happen. Unfortunate things will happen and people want to know. Isn't that what our Constitution and the Bill of Rights is all about? Free press, free speech.
And I'm right there with ya ChevyPower with your comment to Rocket! I could not believe he even wrote that. Sure doesn't sound like the Rocket I know in this forum.
So anyway, can someone help me out here to know just what happened? If you don't want to write about it here, you can send me a P.M.
Thank You.

Rocket you say things that leads me to think you are all progressive? we DO NOT NEED THE GOVERNMENT TO CONTROL US AS MUCH AS YOU TALK LIKE WE DO! The gov't has the power to control anything that is not a right. DRIVING AND OWNING A VEHICLE IS A PRIVILEGE,NOT A RIGHT. So the gov't can control this regardless if you oppose of them doing so or not. |

It would hardly be a free country if we were restricted on everything. |
