Truck Tire Blow Out & Accidents
Yesterday morning I was first car behind an 18-wheel flatbed truck. Seems to me I was thinking about safe distance. All I can tell you was the explosion was a bomb. Debris flying towards my windshield. I pulled to the right, and down the magically provided exit ramp. No other cars. No collision.

Got back on I-75. The truck was pulled over. Could see no flat tires. My guess is a tire exploded. (No police report). Amazing sound; instant storm of debris. Not a unique scenario. Many serious accidents over the years? Beautiful day for me. Lucky.

Talking World Health
In the office a woman from Dakar, Senegal did her best with English. I did my best with French. Taking the medical history, when we lost each other Google translator came in handy. Law requires access to translation. Unclear to me how often this is fulfilled.
