This happened last weekend on mine and a friends way back from DI. We took Josh's boat for floundering and mine as well cause its a little better suited for fishing dock lights. I came over the DI bridge to see flashing lights and carnage thinking Josh was behind me but he was standing in the road next to a boat on the asphalt and a rolled over car. Some woman rear ended a boat, side swiped Josh's boat trailer and flipped. Thank God no one was hurt. I stuck around for a bit to make sure he had tools from my truck to bend the fender back enough to get it home. He called me about 45 minutes after I left and said the woman failed a breathalizer (at 7am mind you) and was cuffed in the troopers car.

Need to mark that spot on the depth finders as a shipwreck.

Wait till that second driver (assuming they survived) gets the bill for those twin Yammy 150's they destroyed... That's a new car sitting on the road there..

Dang, thats terrible! Dont know why folks cant stay home if they drink! Last year a young girl ran into my boat as I was taking it to Nags Head for a week vacation. Lucky I had the outdrive trimmed all the way up and it only scratched the lower unit up. Peeled her hood back like a tin can, busted her grill and headlight out and she backed up and hauled a$$ before I could get her lic number. Guy beside her said she was texting while driving.

Over the last 25 years I have seen drunk drivers do more damage than I can even remember, to themselves and innocent people...but our society seems to accept it...chances are the lady in this case will get a fine and her insurance will go up, but there is very little punishment for the crime.

that is so sad , 7 AM must have been on a all night bender ! Being a retired firefighter/medic. I have seen more than my share of the carnage these drunk and druged drivers cause combine that with texting and you have a deadly combination. at least now one was realy hurt in this crash but the loss of property was very large by the photos
DONT DRINK AND DRIVE
