DeWaal was sent out on the grisly accident last week that left old Viewmont athlete Heidi Linge dead. There's a lot of people getting hurt out there," and while towing a broken down vehicle or fender bender is one thing, DeWaal doesn't like the jobs in which someone has been critically hurt. Just in the past few months, DISC HBO LIFE NICK PSN SHOW WGN 6 towing business has become so good he's had to buy two new trucks to keep up with the busiand most of his business ness these days is because of the congested roadways, where and cars are in too close of contact. When you have an 80,000 to 100.000 pound truck and a 3,000 to 4.000 pound car collide, bad things are going to happen. The problem is too many cars and trucks jousting for too little room on the interstate these days, especially, when there are times when one or DeWaal's WTBS ' see semi-truc- even two lanes are closed down on the interstate. People don't understand how much bigger these trucks are, DeWaal said. The average big truck is 20 times larger than the average car, and if they're piggy backing, the semi can be even larger. People don't realize that truckers can't always see them in their mirrors. DeW'aal sees the problem only getting worse until they make it so people can't travel in such close proxHe said imity to the trucks. motorists don't give the trucks enough room.

The way I understand it, the Legacy will be a more direct DeWaal route with fewer said. To him, that means more truckers will use Legacy, rather than taking them out of the proximity of SATURDAY AFTERNOON NOVEMBER 6,1999 NOVEMBER 7,1999 most motorists. Until and unless it's built, DeWaal sees the situation remaining dangerous, especially during this construca period he sees tion period on as being'made worse because people are impatient in the slower traffic and exhibit road rage or travel too fast and too close to other cars. I don't want to make the truckers out as the bad guys. When they're on the road with little cars, they don't see cars as well.
