OT but interesting story

[Larry" <rocco16v@netzero.com (Larry)]

Eric is right about the "other" car.  I'd amost be willing place MY bet
that, even if the other driver comes forward or the one survivor identifies
that person,  they will STILL go after the car
manufacturer/state/county/etc. Why?  Who has the most money?  Will the
family attourney  recommend going after $10M settlement against a
19-year-old student or against VWOA?
You decide.
Sad, sad, sad.....the deaths and the pain that will drag on, even for others
who had nothing to do with it.

Don't drink and drive, guys.  Please.

Larry
