Wow! Please Drive Carefully

Yeah, one of the times my Mother and I would go to Indianapolis for Christmas and coming back driving through Lexington Ky it was snowing and the roads were worse than in the vid. A Semi passed us and basically made us hydroplane, slid around and down into the median. We were lucky as hell I still get chills when I think about it.

That is so sad. So freaking sad. That reminds me of this one incident, well more like accident. It was around 01-02 when I lived in Raleigh. This guy and girl were on a motorcycle and I can't recall what happened that the girl just fell off the bike, I had two cars ahead of me and the car right behind of the motorcycle hit what seems to be the girls cranium. I caught a glimpse of it and I'm sure the girl didn't survive. Looked very fuged up. There's no way that woman survived, the dude just kept driving and left her there..

There was another accident this time involving a state trooper on a bike, it happened in Raleigh, the dude was chasing someone and he was going way too fast. I saw him fly by me as I was pulling over. The road was turning and he was going too fast he smeared himself on the wall. I caught part of that too and it was gory man,

Holy crap!!!! I still hate driving in weather, because of my wreck last year. I was on the way back from Buffalo, NY and was driving in PA on one of the highway's. It was raining, not that bad, I was still going 5 under the speed limit though as I was in my new car.

My back tire popped and caused my car to hydroplane 3 times, the first two times were light and didn't last very long, the last one took my car off the road and then back across the highway into an embankment that flipped my car twice. All of it happened in like 5 seconds, it was insane.

Bent the frame and tore the car all to hell on the driver side, front fender, hood and roof of the car.

"Odd thing was the passenger side was barely touched, didn't even really have any scratches on it. Both times it flipped it landed on my side."

I still freak out when I'm driving in the rain or snow and that was last February.

Those clips remind me of all of the reasons I had to quit a job I loved because it had 2 hours a day on 40/85 between G'boro and RTP.

Drove it every day for 1.5 years and saw 12-15 people die and those were just the ones where I saw the impact.

    • I'm happy with TMac, but Tyler Warren was last season's Tyler Linderbaum for me in that he was at a position that wasn't one of the five pillars but he was the best player at his position AND one of the top talents in the draft. I cannot fuging wait for the Panthers to start winning again so that those guys fall to us like they seem to for teams like Baltimore & Philadelphia.
    • Still working on consuming all of these so I don't have summaries available, but I figured there might be another Huddler or three trying to kill time before tonight's final preseason game.   Panthers Blueprint: Training Camp The in-house produced Blueprint series has given behind-the-scenes look on the field and off. Start the day with Robert Hunt's family, be in the morning meetings, mic'd up players during practice (Jaycee, Rozeboom, Icky, and Bryce), roster evaluations by the staff, and plenty of camp highlights capping off with FanFest.   Processing Blue (Mike Kaye & Alex Zietlow Mike and Alex are back talking about a variety of topics including but not limited to: joint practice + preseason game vs. Houston, Trey Hendrickson trade rumors involving Carolina, training camp awards, draft pick draft, and various thoughts about the team.   Jordan & Jake 706: Opening Day Another in-house Panthers' production, the most recent episode of Jordan and Jake talk about how to properly balance intensity in practice, react to the starters being shutdown for the preseason finale, share their thoughts on the newest Panther QB, and more.   Raw Room - Ep 278 - Gas Pedal (ft. Mike Davis) Assistant special teams' coach Darren Bates' Raw Room podcast has former Panthers' RB Mike Davis on his weekly podcast. I'm about halfway through this one and it's been a lot of fun. The Raw Room guys (DB, his friend Alex Sweets, former Eagles/Chargers OT King Dunlap, and former Atlanta DB Jalen Collins) are hilarious and Mike fits right in. They talk about his football experience coming up, decommitting from Florida and how he decided on South Carolina, and more. Warning: If you're the type of person that is easily distracted by accents, despite XL being on the team, you might have issues with understanding the Memphis dialect. If you don't care about how somebody talks, just what they're talking about, tune in!
