The most seriously hurt of the six drivers involved in the accident, Silverman expects to be released from Care One next week and will finish recuperating at his home in Wellington, Florida.

"I'm getting used to using the wheelchair," he said. "It's another five weeks where I have to stay off my feet, but all in all, I'd say I'll be back [in the sulky] in two and a half months."
