Holly crap where was this at? There is an accident at Ironwood and Southern at least once a month, I am very very carefull going by there. I don't understand people, they just don't understand how fragile their lives are.

I agree with you 100%. It was mid day off West Ray Rd. and Deaver. In Chandler, I was there for an interveiw, and on my way to the drug test place it happened. I was like whoa, that's gnarly... sad thing is, I guarntee the driver who started the crash white(ford explorer)91' looked as if he was here illegally, because he tried to flee the scene but the driver of the escalade pinned him down, like off duty cop or sumtin. So im sure Insurance for the ones involved is screwed! ....

That $hits crazy.

A friend of mine just had a 60ft (estimate) pine tree crash through their house the other day during a mild windstorm up here....

We pay some of the highest ins. rates in the country to overcome the costs of most uninsured drivers in the country. We have so many uninsureds b/c they can't afford the high rates. The monster feeds itself. Also, like you said, too many illegals. Too many people feel entitled to drive how they want too. I could rant on about this one.

My wife works if a pharmacy and had someone come throught the drive-up window to drop off a prescription but they could not speak nor read a word of english. They finally got someone to translate but when they were asked for their ID, what did they produce? You guessed it a valid TN drivers license

how would someone that can't read english (seeing how road signs are in english) pass a driving test and be allowed to drive? Go figure.

Seriously how do they. When I was 16 I had to friggin go through loop holes with the California Dmv. It wasn't like hard to pass the tests, but if you can read, write, speak....what's the deal. I mean I know they have spanish stuff, but not to be racist or to mean, considering im part persian/german... If you want to be valid, you should at least be offered a course or sumtin on how to know things. Many of them are hard *** workers so I don't disagree with allowing them here, just limit it a lil i suppose.

This is starting to remind me of something I saw on TV a few years back.................. On the bright side, I hear that no matter how guilty you are, if you spend enough on lawyers you can always beat the charge.....
