Hi Guys
She is very sore but she is fine, the car on the other hand is totaled. She was in the center lane of a 2 lane highway when a lady driving the wrong way in the lane nearest the shoulder hit her passenger side to passenger side. tore both wheels off and trashed the suspension. Thanks ever so much for the good thoughts and feelings of concern, its deeply appreciated Take care dear friends Yours Hank |

Hank,
Im so very happy that she was not injured and or harmed in this. Cars can be replaced, loved ones cannot. Be strong though this as it may test your patience. Know that you can hold her hand still, makes all the material items easier to deal with. Regards, NB |

The full frame I'm sure played a big part.
I drive a 88 crown vic wagon, and I know that I have a better chance, especially against a high cog vehicle like an suv, or truck. Glad your guys are okay, and hope you come out alright in the end. Buy back the old car, and get that marauder engine ready. |

Airbags, anti-lock brakes, stability systems, crumple zones, stronger occupant cages on modern cars all make them safer than "big" cars from back in the day. While weight and height do have some impact the safety items and advances in cars today are much more likely to save you in a crash. Mike |
