Miracle on the Garden State Parkway

By John Argenziano

It was the summer of 1992, and I was visiting a friend in New Jersey. On my way home, while getting on the entrance to the Garden State Parkway, I gunned my corvette to meet the speed of the traffic on the parkway.  All of a sudden I went into a spinout on the grass alongside the entrance ramp.  I was out of control. I heard a voice say to me, “Just hold on. You will be all right.”

The next thing I knew, I was in the middle of the parkway facing traffic.  The strange thing is there was no traffic.  There is ALWAYS traffic on the Garden State Parkway.  I could see cars in the distance, but it seemed to be suspended. I pulled over to the shoulder of the parkway and just sat there for a few minuets,  It was then I realized that God had sent my guardian angel to keep me safe.
