AMEN ON THE EYE CONTACT ----- Original Message ----- From: RONALD L PRACHT To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, June 08, 2007 5:51 PM Subject: [QUAD-L] Semi truck vs Power wheelchair
The reason the rear drive wheels were burned off is because they are attached to the gear box and the wheels were basically held like a brake. The front ones roll free , but at 50mph im surprised they withstood without going into speed wabble. The man is the luckiest person on the planet. Sad part is if he would have gotten killed it wouldnt have been any big deal at all. The fact that he survived is the only reason the press wants so much to do with it. Whenever I have to cross an intersection I make sure I get eye contact from people , otherwise you have no guarantee they wont pull out because people arent use to wheelchairs. Ron c7
