Ever noticed the drunks always survives while the innocent are gone 😡
@sanlau no it’s because Drunk drivers often survive crashes because their delayed reaction times prevent them from bracing for impact. While sober drivers tense up—making their bodies rigid and more prone to severe impact injuries—intoxicated drivers remain loose, allowing their bodies to better absorb and disperse the crash force. But yes being hit of course you get all of the impact and most severely injured
Just another reminder that life is short and you never know when it might end. So enjoy it while you can. RIP
@BkPatriot word to life
Damn. Can’t even walk outside anymore.
Sorry about that
