Except for a few black and blue marks and a few scrapes on her back and arms Barbara is just tthe. The accident happened near the "Little Store" on ilingwopd Road. The poor woman driving the car that struck Barbara was a nervous wreck and we are sure her injuries ipill be far more permanent in her memory, than it will be in little Barbara's. Had this same accident occurred on Fox Lake Road or Broadway, West, the outcome wouldn't have been only minor injuries. The speeders on these two roads are becoming increasingly alarming, each passing day. Not all are teenagers though, many are parents of children, let's please watch the speed on the Highlands roads, especially during the summer months.
