ATC Postings and PYO NEWS

Thank you, it was a day of coincidences. We had his truck, which we never take up to Wisconsin usually, and then on top of that we randomly bought an air hockey table, so the tailgate was down since the table extended out more than the truck bed. The freak accident happened when we lost control on sleet rain or ice on the interstate and we could not avoid doing a 360 into a deep ditch off the road…but another car had already gone into the ditch from skidding on that same area of ice and we collided exactly with them, against all odds. They were still in the vehicle and we hit the passanger side with the tailgate. Because the tailgate was down it broke downward and spun us around again 360 to put us behind the car we hit, but it didn’t kill the passanger of the other car because of this very reason! If the tailgate was up this would have been a very different story…and also if it had been my car as well since it would have surely been totaled and who knows how we would be. The two people in the other car were…sort of ok. They were an older couple and the driver of the other car had his defibulator go off in his heart, but he seemed to recover some. There were no cuts though so that was good, and no cuts on me because I’d have had to go to the ER being on blood thinners and all. We’re hoping they are ok, they were not easy to comprehend talking to and we don’t know why they didn’t call an ambulance right away after going into the ditch, or get out of their vehicle after they went in because they had already been sitting there in the ditch a few minutes before we came sliding towards them they said.
