I am so glad that they were unhurt. I use to drive truck and we were in around Albaquerque NM. and this has happened a few times out there. When a car would be going at a high rate of speed in the wrong direction and one time at night and also during the day. Thank God no one was hurt the police got them before it did . But it had turned out they were trying to take their own lives by doing this. People please beware I agree and it's not only with cars it has happened with some trucks too but mostly with cars. I was in SC when an older lady was going the wrong way and in heavy on coming traffic and thank GOD again she didn't get hit.

Thank God they are ok. I had a suburban cross over from the HOV lane to the fast lane I was in and hit my car. Because of his carelessness I was disabled. Thank God your family was safe!!!

Glad she and her children are ok. My sister was side swiped by someone that was reaching for their cell phone and it was snowing really hard at the time. Neither were hurt, not much damage to her vehicle ... just it could have been really bad.

I have almost been hit several times by drivers reaching for something that has fallen. Scares me to drive, especially if my children or grandchildren in the car.

Glad everybody is OK. I am so thankful that we were taught "defensive" driving in school.
