My youngest sister was heading over to Bend and hit a patch of black ice on Hwy 126 at Clear Lake. She then hit a snow bank and rolled her Jeep 3 times before it landed on its side in the road. She wasn’t able to get the window down or the passenger door open and she was worried that another car would come along, be unable to stop, and slam into her so she scrambled out the back window. Thank God she is ok although understandably shaken up and a bit sore. One of those scary events where your life flashes before your eyes. Below are a few photos taken at the scene.
So scary…Thanks God She is OK.
Having driven the same stretch of road just the other day, I thanked God and my guardian angels that we made it safely. You can never be too careful on these icy roads. Thank God she is okay and hope she recovers soon.
@ella – yeah, thanks to God she is ok with nothing more than a cut hand and a scary experience.
@andika – it was nice that we could caravan like we did. I tried to keep your headlights in the rear view mirror. You can never be too cautious on those slippery roads. Of course the biggest danger is the other drivers who don’t slow down enough.
That’s really scary! Thank God, she’s ok.
A belated HAPPY NEW YEAR and all the best wishes to you, Matt.
@Eki – Yes, very scary. Things could have been so much worse. A very Happy New Year to you too. I have been enjoying your daily photos from Bandung.
