I have always, always said, it's never about speed. It's always about arriving safely at the destination. Always.

The nest time YOU (anyone) sits down in an automobile, if you are driving, OR a passenger, just stop and think for a moment, THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST RIDE, EVER! Because for thousands and thousands of people who thought they still had a tomorrow, they found out different. That's a sobering thought! But true.

But, what would be worse than death, is to wake up and find yourself 100% paralyzed for the rest of your life, or your spouse, or your child.

Well that was cheerful But true !!
