Scripps Ranch median and/or pot smoker led to tragedy
Sadly there were lives lost in these cases and there is nothing more tragic. While I remain sensitive to that I wonder just how many cases of the less severe in injury to the body but critically serious to the wallet go unreported? They may even occur at many other places in the city and county where the charming medians exist. As long as there is no significant financial impact effecting say the retirement plans of our public officials we will not see anything change. I too hit one of these medians on Qualcomin Wy in the dark, pooring rain, last Jan. the night the San Diego river rose to 11 feet and everyone decided to turn around at the same time. My vision is 20/30 each eye and I get a good drivers discount every year. Well,lets just say no matter who you swerve away from to avoid getting hit, after 6 weeks in the shop and a $16,000 dollar hit on my insurance for undercarriage and wheel damage,a good driving record discount is history and I can count on zero discount not to mention sky high premiums next year! The insurance adjuster on my case indicated he had never seen a wheel so badly mangled.— June 13, 2017 6:16 a.m.
