I've seen a lot of pretty close calls down this single carridge way with speeding cars recklessly overtaking, but last night I found myself trying to comfort a lady who was involved in a head on collision down that very stretch of road.
This morning a report was released that one of the women in the car that I was trying to reassure at the scene of the crash, one of the ladies who I'd been trying to make conversation with for 10 minutes had passed away at the scene of the accident, and let me tell you, even though I didn't know her, it hurts a lot.
