  This is not accurate. Larry was not traveling on highway 331, he was on our property (in the yard next to the road) and saying goodbye to 3 friends. He put the 4-wheeler in drive before coming to a complete stop and the tires grabs. He was going approx 1-2mph and the 4-wheeler flipped. His head hit the road.  He was not speeding, racing, jumping or acting reckless, as so many publications have stated. He was simply heading back to the shop where my birthday party was happening.
