Reply #15: Unless you get hit by an SUV [View All]

[Wright Patman]

True story. I was out walking on a Sunday afternoon a little over a year ago. A woman driving a Chevrolet Suburban going about 40 mph turned around to tell her kids to behave, ran off the road, hit me head-on and put me in the trauma unit. It is a miracle I am still alive. Only broke 15 to 20 bones. And the SUV was undriveable afterwards, so I guess I "won" in a way.

Guess who doesn't go on leisurely walks anymore? As long as the SUVs own the road and then some, it ain't safe.
