    Exclamation Save your life~ Updated

    Public service announcement here. Wear your seat belts. I'm not going to go into details but will say we are OK, very very sore but OK, the car is not. Had we not been wearing our seat belts this post might not be being made.
    Ps, Hydroplaning sucks.

    Now take care of yourselves & your loved ones. Please.

    Darlene, I am glad everyone is ok! Seatbelts do save lives. We also learned from experience.

    Thank God that you and everyone else are alright! They do save lives! They have saved mine as well and my dear brothers last summer when he hit a tree head on at 50 mph! Mine was a roll over accident . Hope you are feeling better soon, Darlene.

    Thanks for the well wishes. I didn't know how sore I was until I took a shower today, putting my head back to wash my hair made me take notice of my neck and just the water on my chest hurt. How the heck did my foot get bruised? It was something. We were going 55,hydroplaned, hit the guard rail, spun around & hit again.I lost my glasses then found them in the back seat. We were so lucky.

    For someone who wasn't going to go into details, I sure did.

    Oh My Gosh Darlene...! I'm so happy that you're ok. You might wanna see the doc about that neck. And be aware that injuries can take months to fully present themselves from an accident like that. I'm so sorry this happened but so relieved that you're ok. Whew.

    I'm so glad you're ok. Well, sore, but generally ok, you know what I mean.

    I always wear my seatbelt- my stint as President of my high school SADD (students against drunk driving) chapter cemented it in my mind to never go without it.

    How scary! I am so glad you all are ok. And, yeah, you should go to the doc just for a once-over.

    I think this should be a high school requirement.

    I work at a company that makes seat belts and believe it or not we have women who refuse to wear them because the belt wrinkles their clothes!!
