I'm feeling Sad.
I'm looking for connections with others affected by road trauma, people who understand grief and loss, tools to campaign for road safety, and opportunities to educate others about the effect of reckless driving.
I'm here because I want to remember someone who has passed away as a result of a road collision, a family member or friend has been affected by road trauma, and I want to create a memorial.

My story

On the night of Febuary 20 th 2010, a group of cousins and friends were celebrating our cousin karines birthday. At the end of the evening they had decided to attend another party for her. My cousin Leo did not get into his car because he had drank a couple of beers. His friend anthony asked him to come with him and a girl named corrine. Anthony was not in the right frame of mind either but leo thought that if he went that the driver would be safe. The driver started to drive to fast and there was fresh snow on the ground so he skidded and hit a lamp post. It killed Leo who was only 22 and corrine who was 24 and the driver got out without a scratch and he ran away.

Sayings that inspire me

I know you are near when the rays of sunshine hit my shoulder...and when it rains you are crying with me
