I still say that those armchair investigators pointing out fault to not have all of the facts of this crash. they do not see the markings on the pavement. They do not see what may have led up to the crash. They condemn the operator for being where he was without knowledge of why he may have been there. Assumptions were made about the highway as to whether it was an expressway, limited access highway, or a 4-lane country road with intersections. Did the operator have alternate routes available to him? Before the crash, was he off to the right as far as he could be?
In the event that I were involved in a crash like that, I would not appreciate being second-guessed from folks 1,000 miles away that do not know the road or why I might have been on it. Would you?
One thing I know for sure is that you cannot trust the accuracy of newspaper or TV reporting. They either guess at or just fabricate "facts" to fir their stories. Just get it on the air or in print first. I know this from personal experience. I had a "newsworthy" incident happen years ago. When I read the story in the paper, I didn't even know it was me that they were writing about. Not only was I not interviewed, they did not get even one fact correct. So, even when I read about something like this, I wonder what really happened. I am sad for the people involved, but I refuse to participate in the armchair investigation from 1,000 miles away.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
