I was driving south on I-75 by Macon Ga. last year. We were returning
from vacation. About 3:30p.m. I heard what sounded like an explosion. About
that time I started to lose control of my vehicle.(I was driving a 1992
dodge caravan) To keep from hitting the center concrete divider I tried
to turn my van away from the wall. In the process I bounced off a semi's
back tire.
The van then flew back into the divider over the wall and ended up facing
north on its top.
My stepdaughter and a friends daughter both flew out the back of the van.
One ended up on one side of I-75 and the other one ended up on the other
side.
Total injuries: Stepdaughter, broken toe broken finger, broken wrist numerous
abrasions to her legs.
Friends daughter: two broken clavicles broken pelvis and numerous cuts
and abrasions
Myself: split left arm broken clavicle and my scalp was torn off.
I had a firestone 360 on my dodge caravan. Its not just the recalled tires
and Ford that has a problem. By the way the engineering report stated that
the tread had come off the tire. I can not give my name at this time as
that we have ongoing litigation but if this helps to save a life it is
worth sending.
