Counting My Blessings Tonight...
While I was driving west bound on the NSP today, just past the Wantagh Parkway, I look up and see a Jeep Wrangler, from the east bound lanes, spiraling up in the air and rolling over about 3 times before crashing into the median.
THANK GOD the median was there, and that the jeep crashed into it and did not jump the median otherwise I would not be writing this post! I was driving about 60 mph in the left lane and the Jeep would have collided into me if the median did not stop the car. I had my 2 year old DD in the car w/ me and we were both in shock! I was shaking and still am in shock over what happened. It happened so quickly and it makes you realize how quickly life can change.
Very thankful to be her today, but please say a prayer for the person or persons in that Jeep.

Re: Counting My Blessings Tonight...
that's the worst thing seeing an accident happen before your eyes (second to being actually in the accident)
We once saw a mercedes behind us, hit a median, because she was on the phone and impatient.
I also saw a car not realize traffic stopped, hit the breaks, spin out & flip and just miss the car service I was in.
Glad you are ok!!!!!

OMG, I got stuck in that traffic trying to head east on the Northern State today from the Meadowbrook!! I ended up bailing off back on to the Northern State going west, and coming off Glen Cove Road south and taking Jericho Tpke home instead! This was about 2 p.m. today, right? I knew there had to be some accident! I am so glad you are safe!! I really hate driving somedays, especially when I have 2 kids in the car with me.

When the accident occured it was probably around 12:45 pm.
I don't know what caused the accident but I looked up from changing my radio station and I saw a black jeep up in the air, rolling over and over - like something you would see in a movie. The jeep must have been going at an insane amount of speed to get that kind of height. I have an SUV and it would have landed on my roof. It was so scary!
