"Early on Sunday morning September 19, 1999, Jacqui -- then 20 years old -- and four friends were on their way home from a birthday party. Reggie Stephey, an 18-year-old high school student, was on his way home from drinking beer with some buddies. On a dark road on the outskirts of Austin, Texas, Reggie's SUV veered into the Oldsmobile carrying Jacqui and the others. Two passengers in the car were killed at the scene and two were rescued.

Within minutes, the car caught fire. Jacqui was pinned in the front seat on the passenger side. She was burned over 60% of her body; no one thought she could survive. But Jacqui lived. Her hands were so badly burned that she no longer can use them. She lost her hair, her ears, her nose, her left eyelid and much of her vision. She has had more than 40 operations since the crash and has many more to go."



Seen this a few times, but unlike most things that come round again that are spam, if this one stops one person doing the stupid drink driving thing, then its worth it.

8O 8O That's terrible. I know these things and others even worse (if that's possible) do happen in this day and age, but it is very sad :!:

Unfortunately, these idiots generally don't stop until they've caused the damage themselves, or lost someone close because of it.

Morons.
