    I am so glad you and the babies are fine, Ashley! I, too, have been in a roll over car accident where a seat belt saved my life. I preach seat belt wearing to others all the time! Once again, glad you and the family are okay!

    Dear Readers of northescambia.com. I am the driver of the white van that was involved in the accident on hwy29 and bluff springs road this morning. I would like to thank everyone that was at the site this morning for the excellent work that was given. I would also like to thank the man that helped me get my little girl out of the van when I was unable to do so. I do not know your name but in that moment I would have to say that you are THE Good Samaritan, you have my utmost thanks. And to Mrs.Tammy, thank you for being there to help me overcome my worry so that I could answer all the questions, and to hold my daughter when I did not have the lap space to do so myself. To inform the readers I would like to say that I am also four and a half months pregnant, and my son is 22 months old and my daughter is 4 years old. Everyone is fine do to the fact that I was wearing my seat belt and both of my children were in baby car seats and we had our guardian angels with us. :) I would also like to say that no matter how many times you may cross that road there is always that chance that this could happen to you. So please remember to wear your seatbelt even if you are going “just down the road”. Thank You again to everyone.
