Robye Nothnagel is a wife and mother of twin daughters. On February 17, 2017, her life changed forever because an 18-year-old driver decided to look at her phone instead of the road while she was driving. At the time, Robye who was walking across the street with her two daughters was hit by the car going 40 MPH. She suffered severe injuries from the crash and is very lucky to have survived the crash, as most pedestrians don’t.
