My name is Robert Lombardi. While driving home from work I was hit by a teen DUI driver on April 11, 2006.
This event changed my life forever, as well as almost ending it.
I suffered major injuries to both my legs, and for the rest of my life, I will be experiencing pain and the related medical issues involved with life-long implications.
The teen driver did not suffer any injuries, except minor scrapes and abrasions.
My career of 23 years was ended because of this accident, caused by the teen, who did not think of consequences of driving under the influence of alcohol.
That one decision that teen made, changed my life forever.
It is important to always think before you act irresponsibly, because we hold our lives and other people’s lives in our hands, when we choose to drink and drive!
Thank you.
Sincerely, Robert Lombardi
