I have a friend up north who had to go to the ER at night. Her husband got no sleep and on the way home he dozed off and had a head-on, the other car rolled over. Of course, that driver was ticked off but when my friend told him about being up all night with a sick wife and falling asleep at the wheel, the other driver hugged him.
