The wrecker bill was $16,000.00 The wrecker set on the scene for 12 hours, The owners of the company own a very large wrecker service as well and could have been on the scene in less than 9 hours. The driver was supposidly doing 65, but truth be known probably in excess of 100mph when a car cut in front of him and went to the sholder very quickly and stopped, the car behind that car stopped and he had two choices, hit the car or put it in the median and woods so you can see what happend.

All of this is here say, and who knows what really happend, but its how it was explained to me by the owner of the company!

Man he is lucky, looks like he should have been alot worse. Glad to hear that he is ok, and I think I would start drinking after that also.

When you were telling me about this, I had it pictured as really bad, but that is insane. It is a miracle that the driver is alive.
