I had a wonderful weekend camping with my son this weekend. That is, except for the incident that occurred Saturday afternoon on US Highway 101. The driver of a car crosser the center line into the path of an oncoming motorcycle. At a combined impact velocity of a hundred miles per hour, the accident resulted in the motorcyclist and his passenger pronounced dead at the scene. One of the occupants of the car was taken by helicopter to the nearest trauma center. I don't know if they were the driver or a passenger, or if they survived.
My son and I came upon the scene moments after it occurred. I'm thankful that for once, he listened when I told him to close his eyes. Of course, my problem is nothing compared to the two people are who have families who will have to learn to adjust to life without them.
I hope the person airlifted from the scene survived and makes a full recovery. I hope that if it was the driver, that he never gets behind the wheel ever again.
