Marlin, You need to get off your soap box. This is no the place to give people an "educaton" about safe driving. You must not know Travis, "this man" as you called him. If you did, you would know that he was a GREAT driver. He was so many other things, to so many people. This was not his fault, it was an accident. Reguardless, this is not the place to give your opinion about a man you never knew, and a accident you were not present at.

My best friend texted me about this earlier this morning and it was pretty shocking, but to say that I'm really suprised at it would be a lie, just that it was his character to be a little bit of a "daredevil" for lack of a more descriptive word. Travis was good guy though, sorry it had to happen to him. RIP man.
