Here are photos of my "ex" car. On May 16, 2001, my boyfriend was traveling on the Dulles
Toll Road in Northern Virginia. He was driving my 1997 Pontiac
Sunfire GT. It was our only car at the time. He had been up working
on his truck the night before so that he and I could have two
automobiles.
Point being, he was so exhausted the next day that he fell asleep
driving. From what I was told from the police, my boyfriend was
traveling between 70-75 mph in the left lane when he dozed off.
He sideswiped the left jersey wall first and this caused him
to wake up. He remembers trying to regain control of the car
but with no luck. It was then that the car shot to the right
across all four lanes of traffic hitting the dividing, middle
jersey wall between the two sides of the highway head on. The
car then flipped between 3-5 times. Fortunately, no other cars
were involved being that it was so early in the morning. The
injuries he sustained were broken sternum, broken ribs, broken
bone above front top teeth, missing teeth, broken teeth, split
open head, air bag burns, and a part of his bottom lip was sliced
off. He is lucky to be alive and what injuries remain are only
cosmetic.
