On his way home that night,
the car he was in encountered a impaired truck driver who
had been on the road too long and with that impairment,
decided to pull his truck over on the 94 bridge which was an
off ramp with no shoulder. That decision cost the lives of
two wonderful young men (Dan and a friend) and forever
changed the lives for their families, as well as for the
survivors of the crash.
We remember Dan’s smile, but also the decision the impaired
driver made that night. We have now been successful in
getting a new special license plate, available to all
drivers, which “remembers victims of impaired drivers” with
a symbol of a broken heart. It is clear that our hearts are
not the only ones broken every day by the decisions of
impaired drivers. Hopefully, all who see this license plate
on the road will think about what the results of driving
while impaired can be.
