"Other roll was a 64 Karman Ghia(major rust bucket) I flipped when the
outside rear tire popped going around a sharp curve at highway speeds. only
rolled this one twice as it ran in the grassy ditch, but the roof was flat
against the front and rear hoods and getting out was more of a chore.  Two
cases in point to back up the saying"God takes care of the totally
ignorant"  Good thing they require you to wear a seat belt these days, or I
still might not be wearing them.  Well, that's not true, I have grown up a
little since then and learned how to roll model for my kids. $150 fines get
my attention too.
