@Elderberry Prayers up for your Sister and Brother in Law. From the vehicle, it looks like someone was hauling ass.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It was Friday evening before Christmas. They were heading East on the S Beltway and took the 45S exit. All the traffic caused a stoppage that that deputy never saw.

Hard to miss all those brake lights--if you're paying attention to the road.

That spot usually slows down. Do you figure the cop just wasn't watching, paying attention?

We were waiting in the lobby of the main police headquarters to attend a class.  I read all if the "killed on the job" blurbs under pictures on the wall.  All of them were traffic accidents.  About 50/50 between chases and regular accidents.

I hope your family members are healing well.  The picture if their car is frightening.
