I am so very sorry for the loss of your husband and young boy. What a needless tragedy.

I recently read about a local driver who took his eyes off of the road to stop his laptop from sliding off of his car seat. He ended up plowing into another car that, in turn, plowed into a woman with a stroller. The 4 month old died and they prosecuted him for vehicular manslaughter. What a tragedy. Laptops can be replaced, people cannot.

Glad everyone is ok. My DD rides a Harley. I always made her call me when she got to where she was going and when she was going to leave. She thought it was stupid but at least that way if she wasn't home in a reasonable amount of time I knew to start looking. It was her driving I was worried about it was all the other NUTs on the road.
