yesterday a friend who works for a blacktopping co. had one of their trucks
destroyed because some lady pulled out in front of him and STOPPED in the
street!
BTW he was hauling a PAVER behind him, and decided not to kill her so he
took the ditch, destroyed the truck, trailer and paver... left skid marks
for miles I guess b4 he hit the ditch...
