A friend of mine here in Little Rock and his ten year old son were returning from a softball game last Saturday in his 2007 Nissan Sentra. They were on a two lane paved road when some jerk wad in a Mustang coming from the opposite direction just pulled out to pass another car - on a curve and with a double yellow line! The Mustang 'driver' tried to serve back into his own lane but overcontrolled and my friend hit the other car smack on the side ride aft of the front wheels at a 45 degree angle. Totalled both cars. My friend and his son were saved by seat belts, airbags, and about a millisecond of timing, and NO ONE can convince me otherwise. The son went back to school yesterday, and my friend is on crutches for a few more days at least, but it could have been MUCH worse. I have no idea what condition the other jerk is in, but he deserves what he got, IMHO. My friend said the last he saw of the guy, he was being carried off on a stretcher in REALLY bad shape.
Think of what this could have done to a motorcyclist had the asshat pulled out in front of one of us...
