thanks all for your replies,,, Hubby told me at lunch today that she actually went out onto the highway but luckily,, it was late and there was a lull in the traffic and so the moment or two she was out on it,, there wernt any cars around...... I think I need a drink to calm my nerves now!! I had no idea,,,, Hubby said he knew I would be upset and thats why he didnt say anything about it last night!!!
