Yup. If that car had landed upside down they would all most likely be dead and we would still be looking for them

This was Dan's Daughter (NW Differentials) and 2 friends.

It's hard to see in the picture because it was dark, but Dan is on the hood trying to hook up the tow chain and all the dark around the car is water and muck.

It was a Subaru and it was on Hwy 203 between Duvall and Monroe. Near the Honor Farm, if you know where that is.

It's a swamp/marshy area off the side of the road..They were lucky they didn't hit any trees or go upside down...It did roll and it blew all the windows out and I don't know if you can tell by the pictures, but the top is pushed up, I guess by the pressure or something... They are Very Lucky kids for sure...

My dad always told me when I got my license to be responsible and blah blah blah, the usual parent thing, but what made me snap and be more careful and responsible was him making the comment that he doesn't want a call at 2 AM from a policeman asking them to come down and identify my body in a morgue.

He basically gave me the same speech when I got the GTP and again when I got the TA too. He goes more crazy than I do when driving the TA though.

Not a good area to be going fast if you aren't great on driving skills, even the best have had some ditch time.
Glad they are okay and you all were close enough to help out
