Got into a pretty bad wreck yesterday

luckly my friend was driving and it wasnt my cl. It was a 2004 Ford Explorer. He feel asleep and i woke him up as we had 2 tires on the white line, he jerked the wheel right and the SUV went right then it went back to the left. We slammed into the start of a concrete bride head on going about 70mph and did a 360 in the air, touched down for a sec then poped back into the air and did another 360. luckily no one hit us, the interstate was shut down for about 30 min until they could move his car. I dont know how he is doing now but i think he is ok.
Im just sore in a few places but im extremely lucky to not be dead now.

ps. I get my dc sports exaust installed tommrow

his eyes were still open, he started to drift left and i didnt say nething then i realized he wasnt paying attention and i yelled his name. We probally would have been ok if he didnt jerk the wheel right but it prolly scared him to wake up to a guard rail a few feet away.

Glad you guys are ok! Explorer's are very safe. Just as you found out they don't re-act well to sudden steering inputs.

Glad you're here to tell the tale. Consider yourself a very lucky man.

Whatever your spiritual belief, I hope you went to give thanks today
