Choices to Make

Investigators have concluded debris from a truck caused a crash near Tiger Mountain, Washington. “I saw a lady coming from... going east... right into my lane,” said Brenda Hoyt. “I mean I had no time to react. Nothing. It just... we hit right then.” The car coming from the other direction hit the truck part, which spun it out of control right into Hoyt. “And there’s nowhere I could go,” Hoyt said. “I couldn’t stop. I tried, but I couldn’t stop.” The other driver, Kyung Cho, 57, was killed. Hoyt suffered relatively minor injuries. “I think it’s just... I’m very lucky,” Hoyt concluded. And then she changed her mind: “I definitely believe that God spared my life.” (RC/KOMO Seattle) ...I don’t want to know why God spared Hoyt. I want to know why He killed Ms Cho.
