Update on Texas Man Who Was Trapped in Car for Two Days

I recently posted about a Texas man who became trapped in his car for two days. According to recent news coverage of the story, Robert Porter (a Kerrville, Texas native) not only wrote “This is an accident” on the center armrest of his car, but also instructed his family to give him a closed casket funeral. Porter also wrote that his homeowner’s association “should improve (the) road” his car had rolled off of. In an interview with CNN, Porter stated that he honked his horn until his car battery died and survived off of only 8 ounces of water during his two day ordeal.
