Last night while organizing his desk, our salesman Tim Mullin (who has been with Subaru for 18 years this year) found a picture of his 1998 Subaru Legacy. This Legacy was a right hand drive car that his wife used for delivering mail on Martha's Vineyard. 

While his wife was delivering mail one day (in 2003), she was involved in an accident with a Ford F250 truck. The police estimated that truck was traveling in excess of 100 MPH. 

Leigh, who was former EMT immediately got out of her car and ran to the aid of the truck driver. When the ambulance and police showed up, there was a loss for words at the condition of the vehicles and they could not find the driver of the Subaru. Once explaining to the rescue crew that she was the driver of the Legacy and her only injury was a small cut on her thumb, everyone was relieved that she was OK. 

The biggest shock was how she walked away from this accident. 

As Atlantic Subaru has been open for over 10 years now, we have had a few people come in for 'replacement' vehicles due to accidents. Though it is sad and unfortunate, we are always happy to see that our customers are OK, even if the car didn't make it. 

We are thankful every day for Subaru's commitment to safety.
