PLEASE remember to avoid the center lanes except to pass. Often people are looking at the Lake and drift into oncoming traffic. My thoughts go out to those involved.

Can someone tell me the status of the gentlemen in the red pick up? I saw the accident and went to his aid. I keep wondering about how he is doing. Was the other driver cited?
The gentlemen in the red pick up is doing well,little by little he is going to get recovery thank God our friend is alive, about the other driver we don’t know anything.
Thanks Gregg.
