    Oh My God!!!

    my neighbor was just in this huge, tragic accident this morning! it was about 6 or 7 in the morning when it happened, she was driving in the next town on a 50mph highway in her Dodge Ram. i don't remember what happened but another car, a mid-sized, swerved left right into her lane. her truck hit the car, drove OVER it, and then flipped over a couple times. when she drove over the car, it ripped off the top of the mid-sized (and decapitated a man in the process .) my neighbor is fine, just a nasty gash in her leg. she was in the hospital for a few hours today. but unfortunatly 2 of the men in the other car were killed and the male driver is in critical condition in the hospital! the doctors don't think he'll make it through the night.

    *my neighbor is an emotional mess!!!

    I don't have a heart for stupid drivers (the mid-sized car), but I have tones of heart for the innocent victims like ur neighbour. I hope ur neighbour feels better soon, they shouldn't have told her about his head being removed, I'm sure that'll make everything worse for her. Poor neighbour


    Just another reason why I want a truck.

    we didn't tell her, but you're right it would have been worse. also i don't think that they (doctors and especially her friends and family) would let her see the dead men.

    Even when someone isn't killed car accidents can be emotional messes. I'm glad your neighbor is ok, but I'm sorry the others had to die. One thing she should definitely do is accept any/all counseling they provide for her, and they don't bring it up, she should ask for it. And do it now, while the insurance should still cover it. Trust me, it will make a big difference in her long term emotional well-being.

    yea, but she takes responsibility for the fatalities. the accident wasn't even her fault.
