He was on his way to Des Moines, he failed to stop at a hyway 3 stop sign, a semi hit driver's side at 60 mph. Curt survived his surgery to repair heart, has many broken bones, two collapsed lungs, skull fracture. He's 41, family man , family would have been with him but couldn't go at last minute, His 2015 ram diesel has side air bags, probably why he is alive! Guy from emmetsburg witnessed the accident, he got in passenger side and held Curt's hand and told him to hang in there, he was going to make it, till help arrived, an angel for sure!

Wow. I'm glad he's not dead. Sure enough an easy mistake to make.

Bad deal but glad he is alive a long row ahead of him! The best to him and his family.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Glad he is OK. I sure don't envy the long road to recovery he has in front of him.
It's always the little flubs that get you.

Yep, an angel riding on his shoulder, Those side air bags are a good upgrade for protection, I'm glade their becoming more standard. Sometimes life is measured in seconds and inches...
