Andrew Dickens Afternoons

One moment of road rage can change your life forever.That's the experience of Toma-akino Lauaki. In 2005, he admitted to attacking truck driver Barry Fletcher with a hammer after the driver had nearly swiped him.Lauaki plead guilty in court, and was sentenced to five years. He says he was under severe emotional stress at the time due to his wife's illness.When the subject of road rage came up on Andrew Dickens, Lauaki called in to talk about his experiences.He says that his time in jail, which was reduced to three years, was not rehabilitating because he was already aware that what he had done was wrong and it was one moment of blind rage that consumed him.Lauaki told Andrew that road rage of any form is completely unacceptable.LISTEN TO TOMA-AKINO LAUAKI TALK WITH ANDREW DICKENS ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
