I get a call from my daughter a little after 9 this morning, and she’s crying and apologizing. I finally get her calmed down, and she tells me she’s been in a wreck. She’s ok, the other driver’s ok, but her Jeep isn’t. Fortunately, we have good insurance, and the wreck wasn’t her fault. An AT&T truck pulled out right in front of her as she topped a hill. She was going slow enough that her airbags didn’t deploy.

Good deal she’s OK.

Had one of those a few weeks ago; 20 year old son came in and immediately went to “OK - don’t get mad…”. He borrowed my bike, and laid it down on the clover leaf from I44 to northbound 169. Told him that his being OK was all that mattered, I can fix the bike. It’s easy to see what’s important.

Glad all involved are ok. I’d remind her that vehicles can be repaired or replaced. Maybe try to learn tactical/defensive driving lesson. Topping hills, coming around blind corners. I’m always suspicious rounding a turn, trying to see past high weeds in a fence line, thick brush, trees obstructing my view. I understand this is also a main cause of motorcycle rider wrecks,
