On the radio, I heard the man interviewed who was in the first grey van - he said no one was hurt, he himself had a sore back and neck. Also because it wasn't rush hour, there weren't many people on the buses.Quote:

It was late evening, and even though we were one block off the downtown, there were no other vehicles on the street.
As we kept sliding - and it was slow - I said to my sister that we were going to hit the light pole - as we slid diagonally, and the pole was at the end of the block. Sure enough, we hit it. I don't remember how much damage was done to her car, we weren't hurt.
Many times since then, though, I've had dreams about that incident - not really fearful or anything, just that sheer feeling of helplessness because nothing could be done...
On to happier things! Hope everyone has a great day today!
