Lukeman Exercise Part One] Jennifer Cooper

On a Sunday afternoon when I was seventeen, I started the truck that my dad had allowed me to take my younger brother to church members houses in, in order to collect money offerings. My brother and I made it safely to everybodys residentce in the stick shift truck that i had just recently learning to drive well, only killing the engine a few times. The backroad we headed home on was one that I had never driven on previously so it took me a minute to realize that the entire dirt road was in covered in different sized potholes giving it the look of a giant washboard. At forty five miles an hour, the truck began to veer all over the road before I had even realized that I had lost control, everything became a blur, I tried to straighten us out by pulling the steering wheel from side to side. Soon we were headed to one side of the road at a high speed, my brother didn't want us to go off that side so he grabbed the steering wheel and yanked it in the other direction, we went off the bank on the other side and the vehicle turned over on the way down. We landed upside down, fortunately we were still alive.
