This is a copy of an email we received from one of our customers…
Hi all,
As many of you may have already heard, our family was hit by a passing vehicle while returning home from vacation in Virginia. While traveling in the middle lane of a congested I-95 South last Friday, a car attempted to move around us, lost control and hit our vehicle. As the result of the impact, our trailer began to spin and flip. We made a complete 180 degree turn and were resting in the emergency lane facing on coming traffic. How we spun across the three lanes without hitting another vehicle or how we avoided being hit again by another vehicle was an absolute miracle given how dense the traffic flow was at that time of day.
At this juncture we are fairly confident that our trailer is totaled. We are still waiting on the verdict regarding the Expedition. The tow truck driver said that had we not had the sway bars installed, our truck would have also rolled when the trailer flipped on its side. We were extremely blessed to have walked away from this tragedy with some minor pains and frayed nerves!
A special word of thanks to Jack & Sue Horn who were traveling with us. Without their help, support, and trailer space we may still be moving things back from Virginia.
