Ouch.
Oh man so sorry,here’s to a fast recovery!!wondering if the facial damage was from the air bag?
Sure do hope this wasn’t another DUI gone wrong on 36…. if not get well soon, if so get well soon and hopefully learn a valuable lesson…. this highway eats cars and especially drunk drivers.
Nobody ever remembers to watch out for the Jumping Redwoods out here on Hwy 36, they jump in front of your car while you’re otherwise occupied & not paying attention for whatever reason!!!
Don’t judge. You don’t know… it was storming off and on… there are wild animals.. who knows…[edit]
Very true with the wild animals. We hit a deer on hwy 36/before hydesville that had jumped down from a steep bank above the car so we didn’t see it until it was too late. Luckily, we were not driving that fast.
Hope all turns out well in this accident.
These are close friends of mine the car swerved for some unknown reason and they flipped twice I was just with one of them he has a broken back In two places and another is in medical induced coma from injuries to the face and the other got away with minor scratches and bruises
was Tanner the one who had the facial injury?
The Car was stolen the person Vincent Nelson one of the people in the wreck stole it that night y’all shouldn’t feel sorry for them
Not everyone in the car knew it was stolen from Montana so you should shut your trap
[edit] if it was someone you loved u wouldn’t be saying shit… and he never stole the car!!!
Im sick of buryin homies! You better pull through Tanner. Gods speed bruh!
