...that you're "OK" to drive, remember, me and many other people are working when the drunks are heading home from the bars! Now this wasn't me, but one of our employees from our longmont branch. Thankfully, he is OK. The drunk guy behind the wheel of the mini-van, though, got what he deserved.... He's dead.

Yes, the ENTIRE left wall of the truck came off due to a couple thousand pounds of milk getting thrown about during the accident. The driver came out of the truck and apparently slid across the intersection from what I heard through the grape-vine. Luckily all he is reported to have suffered is some major road rash. Was told he was back at work after only 2 or 3 days!!

Yes, definitely glad he's OK. Seeing as he's in Longmont, and I'm down here in the Springs, I don't know him... But still... Could've been any of us. Or anyone else out there driving sober!

Yikes! Longmont Dairy isn't too far from us, when our work was closing down I thought about milk delivery, schedule would definately take some getting used to. Glad to hear he's alright... if only every drunk driver in situations like that would bite it... unfortunately its usually the other way around.

yeah my point wasn't that all drunk drivers should die or anything, I can think of at least one or two occurances where I have driven when I probably would've tested too high to drive... was more that typically when you hear about a drunk driving accident and there is a fatality, it seems it's rarely the drunk driver...
