    Just a reminder to be safe guys...

    I was talking to my brother about a friend of his that passed away this last weekend.

    digitalwav3: so what happened to joff
    swavovonchavo: they were driving on some back roads off palmer after it rained
    swavovonchavo: and they took a sharp corner and hydroplaned sideways
    swavovonchavo: and side swiped a tree
    digitalwav3: who was he with?
    swavovonchavo: 3 kids from different churches
    digitalwav3: everyone else was ok?
    swavovonchavo: yea
    swavovonchavo: one kid broke his ankle
    swavovonchavo: thats it
    digitalwav3: wow
    swavovonchavo: they were driving a 4door e30
    digitalwav3: thats crazy
    digitalwav3: I guess joff's side hit the tree
    swavovonchavo: yea
    swavovonchavo: the bad thing is, the e30 had cut springs
    swavovonchavo: and streched tires
    swavovonchavo: so that didnt help out

      That sucks, but you cant blame cut spings and stretched tires when irresponsible driving is the culprit.

            It's not to blame. That wasn't the point of the thread. Just be safe on the road, especially in the rain is all I am saying.

                  Same here. Wet driving is something I never like doing. Sorry for your loss.

                        Yeah, that's terrible. I would've thought he'd be okay with the weight advantage by having 3 other people in the car...
