Plus car insurance would pay out as well. If the truck was totaled then the company would wright a nice check for the truck alone, plus $250K for his death.
Oh wait, he had no car insurance?


Too many scammers out there.
Lakepoint Church has been contacted in Rockwall and we will see when and if they can asist. There are other avenues being pursued but as stated before Im reaching out best I can and no Im not going to make my best friend do this when he is trying to plan the funeral of his father he has much more worries on his hand.

That what we said looking at them yesterday. They are togehter at one point and and fan out into a V shape yet are labeled Fl and Bl (Front left and back left. The truck originally went off the road into the grass then back onto the road then seems to have started sliding sideways where the marks start and he entered the ditch passenge side facing forwards not going head on into ditch

The plus side is there is a James Caroll that lives on that road...but it doesn't say much.
I'm halfway tempted to call and give my condolences, but ehhh
You're not Donald Trump, silly.

Trucks have 4 tires, not 2. And the two lines should be parallel to each other at all times, no matter in which direction the vehicle is traveling. Even if it was on 2 wheels at some point, the two tire marks should be parallel to each other at all times as well, NOT V shaped.

I call BS on this unitl some one proves me wrong.

Wow you sure you took geometry in school. Have you mastered the laws of physics cause its quite possible to have only 2 marks and in the shaoe they were going. If the truck was facing forward at the time it started sliding around then the tires would be one in front of the other then when it started to spin it would naturally spread the distance of the marks the tires would be leaving.

Prove it you say simple take 2 pens tape them together and start to draw a line with pens stationed one in front of the other. Now start to rotate them and tell me what you come up with???? Pretty sure it will be a "V" shape

Thats cause the marks were made by the 2 rear tires with the car propelling it forward dumass. Please do my kindergarten pen test to prove yourself wrong in the situation that it would be the back left and ftont left tire of a vehicle!! Thanks

My condolences to the family. However I find it odd that you cant provide a link, or even an image of the front page of the local newspaper. Even in a larger city, a rollover causing death would make it onto the first two pages unless Osama was just assasinated on that day. Until something along those lines is posted it would just be your word (tainted by a world of scammers) against the barriers that everyone in this day and age has built up to combat scams.

I wish I could man. I realize today there are alot of scam artist out there and as I am far from that I see where people assume the worst. I can assure you I looked and there is nothing at all posted anywhere. Ill post the obituary as soon as it is released and hopefully that will put alot of this hoopla to rest. Thank you for your condolences much appreciated!
