She said it was like everything happened in slow motion. All that went through her head was me telling her to keep calm, don't jerk the wheel, pay attention to where the other cars are around you, gently steer the truck off to the shoulder.
I don't the extent of the damage yet but I just bought new tires and luckily purchased a lifetime road hazzard warranty so at least the tire won't cost me to replace. I'll have to buy a new rim, hub assembly and brake line at least.
Glad Amy is ok and she handled everything well.

I think Shannon would have rolled the car too. She blows me off as well when I talk about that stuff.
