Well, these events happen and remind me of my somewhat less serious on-the-road miss-fortunes... I'm just glad you made it off of the road safely and didn't become a Darwin candidate in the process of evading traffic. On an otherwise eventless day, I do enjoy reading this stuff but I do want all of you out there in whatever vehicle you're transporting in to be careful and have a good TG..... Cheers!
