Gungo...the 3 of them are former students of mine. the driver graduated 2 years ago and the other 2 i taught last school year.

di current mr ilp and my MD home is up the road from the very exit where the crash took place. our former neighbours said you could hear the emergency responders and smell the smoke from the crash.

di current mr ilp is in MD now with his company as the polar bear plunge was this weekend. im seh everyone is just in shock.

my hands are shaking with the disbelief of this....

This happened to me once during a snowstorm approx. two hours drive north of Montreal.

After it dawned on me what I had done I had to pull over and throw away both my pants &amp; underwear.

Not really that hard on some ramps.
I remember rescuing a little girl one night. Here dad was about to burn her brother, her and himself to death.
Well he took off with the boy, lit another fire in the truck and headed the wrong way on the Interstate. It took two hours for police to finally get him.

I have seen other incidents where folks inadvertently (it seems), get on the wrong directional ramp.

I was at the gas station. I was walking towards the store from the pumps and a truck pulled up. A lady jumped out and right away you could see something was wrong.

As I was inside, in line, looking out i saw the many filling a container with gas. I said for sure he is up to something. He poured the gas in the cabin and struck a match.
I was screaming to the cashier to give i the fire extinguisher and she just stood there looking at I.
I jumped the counter, grabbed it went out the door, grabbed the little girl who was closest to I, dragged her out and put out the fire.
He then took off from the gas pumps with the little boy in the truck.

This was at least two miles away from the nearest Interstate Ramp, by that time he had already re-lit the fire and burnt the little boy, with the police in full chase.
