Please pray
My friend in California, Matt Beebe, was in a really bad car accident this past Friday. He's ok but has wrecked his new car.
My back left tire blew while I was on the 57S going 70 mph and only about 10 minutes from home. My car pivoted on the point where my tire used to be and threw me into the dividing wall. The wall didn't appreciate being hit and in turn threw me onto my passenger side and back into the freeway. The car then fell back from its side to the "normal" upright position. I was sitting at an angle to the freeway spread across the two fast lanes. The tow-truck driver this morning asked my dad who was driving. He said that cars brought in that look like this are rarely not fatal....I'm alive. Please pray for my achiness though, and figuring out exactly what happened to my car and tire. Hopefully there was shady business. Did I mention my car was brand new with less than 150 miles on it?
I don't know much about cars but I'm pretty sure that a new car isn't supposed to behave like that.

I'm so sorry to hear that about your friend! It sounds like he is really lucky to have survived it though! He was definitely being watched over!
Matt is in a wheelchair (since he was a baby and not from this accident) and is definitely an inspiration to everyone he meets. He's such a great person and I have a feeling he's nowhere near done with his time on earth. I hope they figure out what the heck happened. It really sounds like a defective tire.
